    When Ducati brought out the new V4 Panigale I thought they were gonna be top of the superbike tree for the foreseeable future but you and it seems every other reviewer agree that BMW have set the new standard, to the degree that in the TT superbike, senior and superstock races some competitors were riding 1000RRs with just a race ECU and full exhaust system change, which speaks volumes about just how good a bike it is.

    Thanks for the review, TMF! I know that some people criticize your reviews for not pushing the bikes to their limits etc, but as a fellow middle-aged bloke who also rides bikes just on the roads and 'just' for fun, your reviews are perfect for me.

    You have to admire the BMW engineers sticking with 1000cc getting so much power, Euro5 compliant. Lots of the other sports bike manufacturers like Ducati and Aprilia have just upped the cc on the road machines to get past emission regs and still deliver improved performance.
    Still don't think a 6ft 4" 18st gorilla like me would be comfortable on one mind. Cheers and all the best 👍

    Good to see a city review. You were just about to get into the swap of cam when you shifted a gear up, also it would have been interesting to know if that bike was still under 1000km as they are electronically capped 9000 rpm before the second cam comes in. I have tested it both track and road, real twisty roads and it was very easy to ride compared to other of the type sport bikes. All modes. Btw the traction control button only works as from race pro modes.

    I did think about trying one, but had to say no otherwise I might have traded in my Xr. Stunning looking bike in the motor works colours

    The first thing you mentioned was the tight tuck position. That would be an issue for most people as I had that extreme riding position on my GSXR1000. I commuted on it & it was a nightmare (central London)

    Niiice ! Great review of this very usable rocket. I think you were being very conservative with the throttle....they just keep getting better and better. Looks great in red 👍
    The only downside i can think of would be the insurance ?

    I have seen others comment that this bike is so easy to ride and confidence inspiring it tends to get the rider in over their comfort level. Stay safe or at least stay alive.

      That is a good point - very easy to end up riding everywhere like a lunatic on these weapons...

    Lovely bike , but I’d never want one , apart from the fact that I can’t afford one , for the reason I got shut of my Zx10r , loved the bike and found myself dong ridiculous speeds every time I went out on it ,, very poor self control , I started going out for a short 10 mile blast and treated the road like a race track , then had a heart attack , and got rid of it , but now got an old 600 off my son , and go out and actually enjoy riding again and don’t ride like a lunatic, but I’m glad they still make and keep developing stuff like this,,, a beautiful piece of engineering, state of the art flagship ,,,, cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧

      Completely with you on that Shane - this is a track weapon, not on the road for me....
