hey tig, what you wanna bet zook will put out a haslam rep if he wins this season? maybe with factory arrow cans? they did it for matt...in '04 :lol:

True but never a Corser model...weird. I also have a slight aversion to buying a 1st year new model. Did that in '97 with the YZF1000 and vowed "never again"....:lol:

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?

Truth. I haven't seen the new BMW in person but I would like to and would love to ride one but for the $$ I'll be keeping my 07 R1 regardless for now.

I've never gotten all worked up over the 09 R1 since it's come out either...even though it sure does sound good with aftermarket exhaust.

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. :lol:

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