Pros and Cons in comparison

BMW S 1000 RR 2013

BMW S 1000 RR 2013

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.

Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP 2017

Honda CBR1000RR Fireblade SP 2017

Honda has achieved a real feat with the Fireblade. A good motorbike has become better without sacrificing the popular virtues. The bike shines with perfection in terms of chassis setup and overall package. The Fireblade SP is a worthy upgrade to an already fantastic motorbike. The titanium tank makes it clear how serious Honda was. The Öhlins electronic suspension is of high quality and inspires with a radically refreshing new approach. Suspension set-up no longer has to be a compromise.
