Superbike Magazine  |  December 2014
In a month where the Kawasaki Ninja H2R is hogging the media limelight, it’s easy to forget the impact the updated BMW S1000RR is going to have next year. Of all the litre sports bikes, this is the one that could have gone another year or two in it’s current guise and still been competitive with the rest of the sector. As is the norm with BMW, they seem to operate on a slightly different policy to everyone else, they’ve made their bike better when it was already very good. Maybe they could see that Yamaha were going to strike with their new R1 and wanted to stay ahead of the game. Whatever the strategy, we get to benefit as all of a sudden there’s a flock of new litre bikes for us to show you and for you to get excited about, and that’s never a bad thing.
We’ve already had a ride on the new BMW, Chris shot out and rode it last week, you can see what he thinks in this issue. We’ve tried to work something for everyone in this issue, so along with the big boys toys you’ll also see a head to head in the 125cc sports bike category. The KTM RC125 looks like the ideal contender for the YZF 125, you might not think this stuff matters, but remember how excited you got when you found a licence friendly road test for bikes that you could ride when you were new to riding.
We’ve also got a bit of an exclusive on Marc Marquez’ new biography. His talent is as obvious as his smile and who knows how bright he’ll shine in the MotoGP paddock in years to come. Ignore the fact that he’s as young as he is and look at what he’s already achieved, his book gives real insight into how he has become the kind of rider he is. I you enjoy the extract and the issue.
