Aprilia RSV 4 R 2010

Aprilia RSV 4 R 2010

The RSV4 is fun. In the saddle there is a real racing feeling and no 1000cc bike steers as quickly as the RSV4 when entering a corner. In terms of sportiness, handling and engine characteristics, the RSV4 Factory received nothing but praise from all test riders. However, the radical overall concept has two major disadvantages: the seating position on long stretches of road and the slightly unstable rear end.

Very good looks

good rims

positive chassis

strong brakes

agile handling

lots of driving pleasure

powerful engine.

Feel to the clutch

stability under braking

too extreme seating position.

BMW S 1000 RR 2015

The BMW can still score points with hard facts in 2015. If you like top performance, you have to buy the BMW. It turns out incredibly powerful at the top and drives away the rest of the field from 200. Big and heavy riders will be able to benefit from this even more. BMW didn't make it easy for themselves with this bike and put together a very universal motorbike. If you were to do a comparison test with 50 different riders (from rookie to pro), the BMW would have the best average of all 1000cc bikes. The electronic chassis, but also the riding aids, make the pros fast and the beginners safe on the road. A top recommendation for a very broad target group. Very fast hobby riders will not be 100% satisfied with the standard suspension. If you don't want to modify the chassis, you should rather go for an R1M, a Panigale S or an RSV RF. If you want to convert anyway, the S 1000 RR is the strongest and most universal base. Surprisingly, the powerful machine also rides very well on country roads. All in all, it looks like a compromise, but it never feels like one in practice.
