It has already competed in WSBK last year.

Old Buggati Veyron does it in 2.5 seconds and outweights the Porsche by over 1000 pounds, so whats your point?

That´s a very nice bike! I used to be a Ducati-only type of guy, but quit motorcycles after an accident. If I ever get back to bikes I´ll buy a BMW RR! I love the asymmetrical styling and the low exhaust pipe! It´s awesome! BMW FTW!

Gavin@MMW · 03-06-2010, 12:59 PM

Sick. I want one

Remonster · 03-06-2010, 01:12 PM

I'd say it does more than just compete.

poldim · 03-06-2010, 01:29 PM

a good upgrade to my 600...

now where did I leave that 14k...

mach330 · 03-06-2010, 01:46 PM

love the bike. i'm not a fan of the assymetrical look though, but the specs looks great especially the white ///m color. however, am i the only one who actaully doesn't think this video is real? based on take off, i didn't think it looked that real. looks cool though. this bike will definitely be a touch choice between the duc.

Trier Germany · 03-06-2010, 01:52 PM

Just incredible!

MCMLXXXIX · 03-06-2010, 02:03 PM

Scorpion · 03-06-2010, 02:35 PM

+1 I thought it was a cool video too but looked suspicious. The tablecloth and dinner ware had to sprayed with silicon or something, lol. Should get Mythbusters to debunk it!

That's with a passenger. The run in the video is 3.01. 2.9x would be easy given the same conditions minus the weight of a passenger.

This is actually the 997.5 Turbo.... significant difference. this new turbo has the facelift they did on the 997 plus they upgraded the engine from the 3.6 to the new 3.8 and power is now an extra 20hp at 500hp.... among other upgrades.

They also have a 997.5 Turbo S coming out with 530hp.... it's gonna be soo sick!!

If you are interested in a comparison with a quick car here is one for you.

MidwestBimmerFan · 03-06-2010, 07:10 PM

It's about time we get some BMW bike info/video's on this forum.

Race_Doc11 · 03-06-2010, 07:13 PM

my point was that if a bike is doing 0-60 in 2.9, for a car to achieve the same is pretty remarkable

the new 911 turbo was measured by car and driver at 0-60 in 2.9 seconds. april 2010 issue against zr1.

it ran 11.0@128mph
