Why not S1000R for that price?


Kinja'd!!! bob and john > Biggus Dickus (RevsBro)

Because s1000r still needs tech package for cruise, tcs, and trip meters, which is ANOTHER 2k on top

Also s1000r is 1000$ more anyways (canada pricing)

ALSO you guys get the s1000r. You DONT get the fz-10. Little bit of : nana boohoo, you cant have this. (yes im childish)

They arent selling them in the states. Something about not being able to meet emissions or something with CARB in cali. So blame them

S1000R starts at $13,495 (USD). $15,295 with premium package. So just shy of $20K CAD at the spot rate. Spendy, but has all the goodies you will ever need.

So does this. Its a naked r1. At 16k it has every single feature the BMW has (minus electronic suspension i think) and its 4k less.

Not to mention after market parts will not have the BMW tax and I can service it in my garage, and not have to drag it to BMW and get reamed by the techs there.

Well, there is all the cross-plane awesomeness of the R1 engine I suppose.

I honestly totally forgot about that.

But it has power modes, tcs, abs wheelie control, the lot. The price doesnt surprise me much, but its still painful.

Now that you mention it.... If they brought back the street fighters for the panis...(not the silly monster, actual panis with the fronts off) id be intrested...

A dealer near me is asking $10,999 for the 2015 Streetfighter 848. Seems like they are clearing it out. From what i’ve heard they are good bikes if you want the aggression of a supersport but a slightly better riding position. The 1098 version is supposed to be a handful but an absolute hoon machine.

Yea and no ABS. (ya ya, you dont need b/c you are rossi and can stop on a dime yada yada) I commute on my bike and want the safety net.

Oh well.

I wouldn’t make the lack of ABS a deal breaking item but it certainly would be nice to have.

For how much (and in what conditions) I ride, it is a deal breaker if its my only bike (and i dont have the money for two yet)

That would look great in Yellow. With more chrome. And a single headlight. And a Honda Logo. And a 1300cc engine. And shaft drive.
