BMW's
new S1000RR Superbike at only 404lbs and 193hp, is one of the
fastest, lightest and most sophisticated sport bikes ever unleashed
on the planet.
The new S 1000 RR was officially announced at Monza, Italy on
May 9, 2009.
The
new K1300 series was announced at the INTERMOT on October 7,
2008. K1300S, K1300R and K1300GT are the new flagship bikes
from BMW, updating the popular K1200 series. Please visit
our forum for more info, images, Press and videos on this
new line of BMW K bikes.
The
2005 K1200S, 2006 K1200R, 2007 K1200R Sport & the '07 K1200GT
not only incorporated a complete new design but ushered in an
evolved philosophy at BMW. A transverse inline-4, 1157CC, 167HP,
174MPH, 545 lbs wet weight (including ABS and ESA for the K1200S),
Hossack inspired new Duolever front suspension, new maintenance-free
shaft final drive and more.
K1200GT
was named 2006 and 2007 "Best Sport-Tourer" by Cycle
World and K1200R was picked as the "Bike of the Year"
by Motorcyclist.

"...my decision to purchase the BMW K1200S was because
of this web site.......period. I have owned many bikes in my
day, and when news initially came out regarding BMW's new endeavor
in the sport bike arena, I searched the web looking for information
on the K1200S and found many bits and pieces on this new bike.
When I first discovered your K1200S web site, I was amazed at
the wealth of information that was available based on international
review. I was reading about the history of this bike as the
evolution unfolded. The more I entered your web, the more convinced
I was that I needed to get one of these."

"...the
main reason I bought the K1200S is because I read virtually
every post on this website before I signed on the dotted line.
Shiva - I reckon you need to claim some comission - I'm sure
I'm not the first to buy due to this fantastic site and I certainly
won't be the last. I
would not wished to have done this (4-day) trip on my Honda
Blackbird, yet I would head off up the motorway system again
tomorrow morning on the K1200S."

"...this
is by far the best forum I have seen or participated in, very
informative and friendly without all the flaming and competitive
posturing that usually occur with these typically testosterone
driven hobbies. I
look forward to not only getting a K, but being a part of this
community and getting to know some of the members."

"...Just
a quick note to say THANKS to SHIVA and Members of BMW-K.COM.
Have been reading posts on this site for over a year... and
the information has been extremely helpful in my selection of
a new, black, K1200S, that I'll pickup this Saturday. Without
the information and counsel on this site, I might not have chosen
the K12S. Just wanted to say thanks, and I look forward to increased
participation as 'K - riding' member."

"...am
a Big fan of the Forum! Actually, this forum was one of the
factors that put me "over the edge" towards my new
purchase! ...wanted to say thanks..."

"Recently
I came across your website (BMW-K.com) and have found it to
be very interesting and informative. Because of the information
received and the excellent quality pics I will be purchasing
a K1200R over the next couple of months. For that I thank you."

for the welcome Shiva. I must congratulate you on your writings
and the forum - it's one of the best I've come across. I've

"What
I have found [in this community] is awesome information –
and already helped me get the airbox changed by a dealer - also
had the ESA rear shock changed as the compression damping was
way too hard on ‘normal.’"

"I
have referred to your sites for years in looking for repair
info amongst other things on my K12RS. I finally decided to
join and have found it refreshing to meet a truly international
crowd that is so well rounded. People are positive, supportive
and really enjoy what other have to say here. I am sure this
is a ton of work to manage and and just wanted to say "thanks"
for your efforts. I am sure you hear it often, but it's truly
a great experience to participate on your forum."

"I
have to honestly say that as I began to research BMW bikes and
specifically the K1300S, your site & reviews stand out as
the best. I especially appreciate the videos."

"What
an amazing and VERY informative site you have here! I have not
been able to find such in-depth detail regarding the K-Bikes
any where else."

"I
just bought a K1300S a week ago! A light metallic grey K1300S
with, ESA II, ASC -Traction Control, Tire Pressure Monitor,
Gear Shift Assist, and Heated grips. It is an amazing piece
of machinery, the power and handling are far past my riding
abilities. I have been mainly riding it on local/back roads
to get used to the power, handling and braking. Shiva's YouTube
videos are what steered me to get this bike and to this website.
I was already looking into buying a BMW motorcycle but his reviews
of the K1300S spoke to me, thanks Shiva."

"I
just bought a K12S and have appreciated your forum in helping
me with my decision. I have enjoyed the many posts from K-enthusiasts
and definitely consider BMWSuperBikes.com as a primary resource
for questions about my new bike."

"Thanks
to everyone at BMWSuperBikes.com for all of the information
I was able to gain, and I was able to access before I joined.
As a result of what I read and saw on your site, I have just
purchased a new S1000RR. The more I learn about the bike, the
more I am impressed. So thank you for your contribution to this
decision!"

"Shiva,
I've been following your K1300S review with great interest,
today I could stand it no longer. I traded my 07 K1200R-Sport
in on 09 K1300S."

far the best international forum on BMW [S1000RR] motorcycles!
It's vivid and it provides a lot of useful information."

"Very
happy to finally properly join the K club. Not missing my GS
one little bit. It's thanks to this forum and all the contributions
that finally got me to make a very informed decision on buying
a K1300S."
