Joseph Marton I like Guy Martin too but he is not as accomplished and experienced as John.

Guys, YaH The Heavenly FATHER HIMSELF was Who they Crucified for our sins and “HERE IS THE PROOF” From the Ancient Semitic Scroll: "Yad He Vav He" is what Moses wrote, when Moses asked YaH His Name (Exodus 3) Ancient Semitic Direct Translation Yad - "Behold The Hand" He - "Behold the Breath" Vav - "Behold The NAIL"

Motorcycle addict I think he’d be keen so we’ll make a plan!

Bennetts Bike PLEASE MAKE IT I’ve been looking for a racebike collection video forever

A video of him showing his collection is on youtube.

Bennetts Bike please

Bennetts Bike good stuff , seems there is a good few more that would like to see that too !

guys a freaking legend...i love listening to him also

I agree hes a legend but no ones made the step up like Hickman and Harrison.

I got it via the Dainese.com site about a year ago. Maybe try Dainese London shop - a very helpful bunch.

S K We played with some but not all of the settings. You’re absolutely right, it’s important to find the ideal combination for your style of riding. I’m just back from the R1 launch and certainly found a slightly softer power setting more beneficial on corner exit.

@@bennettsbikesocial Cool, can't wait to see your R1M review, I also have a 2016 R1M that was a total B@st@rd in P1 from standard ! had to re-map it to my taste, I hope the new one is better ?! I suppose you are also limited for time on these reviews? to set a bike up your have to live with them a little & everyone has their own preference, PS Keep up the good work, really like your honest relaxed format :-)

Brilliant - it’s supposed to look like Mike Hailwood though!

Cbr1000rr r 2020..

John or me? 😉

Macstheking True

Right to a degree. Norton used to use 65 V4 998cc from Aprilia, i think up till 2015 or 16/ then move onto 72 degree 1200 V4, and that is a massive difference.

He's right, anybody above 1,80m or 5"11 will struggle to find room on it, I had one in the past and being 6" tall, had to get a special rearset build for me and raised the seat... but beside these ergo details that can easily get tuned, it is an absolutely fantastic bike, both the 1000 RF or the 1100. the 1000 might be easier to use.

Yann Berger I loved my 2017 rsv4. I could do some 10 hours trips with out any issues and I’m 6feet tall.

🤟🏻

Said the same thing. Imagine adding 11bhp/9.5nm to any bike. And losing that extra weight.

The V4 1100 factory comes with the street legal Akra. I had a brief test ride on one. I was a major step up from my 2011.

@@ChrisMag100 yeah, but on the RSV4 it's a euro 5 emissions compliant system with a catalytic converter. There's no two ways about it, that will reduce power and increase weight. I lost 5kg and gained 4bhp by just getting rid of my catted exhaust. The BMW had a unrestricted full aftermarket system on that added 11bhp and reduced weight by quite a few kg.

Sierra Nevada It’s just how we’re running our long-term BMW at the moment which agreeably isn’t how some might wish to see head-to-head tests although the extra power figure and torque figures are in the mid-range, not peak, which is where the Aprilia is particularly strong. By having the modifications on the BMW it aligns the two bikes for retail price. They’re both very strong bikes on and off track! I think if anyone was going to choose between these two then they’d ride both to begin with.

Watch it on 650ib

Then I would need subtitles

@@frrrmphpoo1700 Same here. But it worth it))

ubu 9 lol not even close my dude!! The V4 weighs in at 199kg and the bimmer weighs 187.5 kg so the bimmer def has the edge

@@sidsmith8251 I think the V4 weighs about 195kg

@@andresantel2137 you talking about the Ducati right

@@sidsmith8251 yeahh

They can't the 999cc is the reason why they can compete in racing the same reason as the Panigale V4R

It’s 11bhp extra in the mid-range, c. 8.5k rpm, not peak. And it’s the mid-range where the Aprilia is particularly strong. We’ve been running the BMW with a full system for a while and thought the Aprilia was the only modern day bike with similar performance... and price once the Alta system is included. It was never meant to mislead which is why I mention it so blatantly in the intro to the video. Yes, the RACE mode was activated on the RSV4.

I wish the BMW had them. There's definite brake fade towards the end of a particularly hard braking track day.

Agreed. There's the massive £15.7k price difference to consider though...

Sorry but the inline 4 on the S1000 feels so underpowered, under-torqued and boring compared to the bigger V4 engines on the Aprilias and Ducatis.

Agreed, for the track the BMW is the better bike purely because of how predictable and boring it is which is perfect when you’re racing. And as you say the capacity restrictions. Also a lot lighter. But for the road the Aprilia is better hands down.

Fahad Ladha It certainly makes its power on quite a secretive way - you don’t feel fast but with 204bhp and plenty of torque in its standard format, you can cover plenty of ground. I understand what you mean about the character of the V4 offering more of a riding experience too. Cheers, Michael

@@fahadladha6938 ecu flashed s1ks are faster in a straight line and almost the speed of an h2, plus its so much cheaper

No, just the full system. The vastly complex computer and lamda sensors sort the air/fuel mix. It’d like to have it remapped just to see the difference though.

@@bennettsbikesocial If you do use brentuning , they are the BMW experts and the only company that can really tune these bikes

BMW I think, but for me both are winners

It's tough decision for me BMW best all rounder but the aprilia you don't see many of them love the wings on the aprilia but would want it in different colours

SadaEKE Timing equipment isn’t permitted at track days, shame.

Bennetts Bike Your cameras record time down to a 30th of a second, maybe better. Looks like you had a couple of GoPros running all the time... No excuses next time ;)

Depend on qhere you live. We have 1 bmw dealer here but quite a few more aprilia.
