Hey man, good financial decisions are never a bad idea... I, too, wanted to hear what you thought of the ride. Maybe try a demo later this year?

My thoughts exactly. I would love to hear an unbiased report on the bike. Anymore, I don't trust a damn thing I read from "professional" journalists. The bike review scores are directly proportional to the number of paid ads in the magazine.

Rico Penzkofer said yes to the BMW. At least the offer to ride a factory based entry at the Isle of Mann this year. He has only been there once but finished well and he rode the S1000 to a 5 th place finish at the Macau GP...

So my review of my demo is not good enough for you, huh? I see how it is, you bastard.

Yeah, because I'm paid by BMW and therefore all moderator opinions are biased. You didn't know that?

Oh yea, I may demo one in Daytona or when I get back! The dealer didn't want to let me sit on the decision so... besides, no offense but I'm having a harder time with the looks than I thought I would... For the money I want to LOVE IT!!!
