BMW has finally pulled the wraps off its new S 1000 RR superbike, and let's just say we're anything but disappointed. First, the most important bits: 193 horsepower at 13,000 RPM, 82.5 lb-ft of torque at 9,750 RPM, 455.3 pounds with a full tank of gas. For those keeping track – which is probably just about anyone interested enough to read this post – those statistics are enough to give the big Beemer the most horsepower and best power-to-weight ratio of all liter bikes intended for public consumption. Expect U.S. sales to begin early in 2010 for what's expected to be a rather attractive price. I have to get a few more years under my belt before I’m ready to take on this bike! :-/
