It is so manageable considering the power that it has, around the streets its smooth power delivery and light steering makes it as easy to ride as a smaller more upright bike, but its when you hit the open road and the twisty's that the bike really comes into life. I have been after an RR for around 3 years now and finally took the plunge by buying a 2015 S1000RR Sport, The bike is beautifully built with lots of straight lines and a very aggressive look overall. I have fitted all the M carbon and that takes away the cheap looking plastic and really finished the bike, also a full Akra carbon system, however, no one makes a fuel module yet and ECU flashing is currently limited, it still runs well but lumpy down low, I will fit one as soon as they are available. My only other issue is the M seat, it feels like a block of granite, after 5 miles I’m not sure if I have any jewels left and if I have, will they work, I’m going to look at some options from a sport model seat to a gel cover. I have found the screen a bit annoying, I like to use the third screen in the sport area, but when you turn the bike off it reverts back to the standard road screen, you should just be able to select a screen as default. The screen is just amazing, with full connectivity to a headset and phone, with a nice sat Nav prompting screen when using bmw connect app, it’s a great addition to a bike. I have found the clutch to be slightly odd, it’s difficult to fine the point of bite, it’s odd. This bike is the best RR I’ve owned, from its low down torque and pull right up through the Rev range, the engine is so smooth and the gearbox seems almost seamless.
