RE: BMW RR Experience - 2

Hi Holger,
It was an open invitation (all bike riders and street bike of all brands and ages) in the australian BMW newsletter. Especially in the Experienced category, some bikes stretched the 'street' requirement.
I look forward to reading your report on Nordschleife.

Hi Scorch,
I touched down the foot peg hero blobs a few times and very lightly scuffed the right hand engine cover. I cut the centre stand stopper rubber in half to allow the centre stand to tuck up higher for more ground clearance after scrapping a number of times on the road on a few of my favourite corners, but it also touched on the right side. If I get to do another trackway I will take it off.

Not sure why this photo displays horizontal instead of vertical. It displays vertically if you click on it. Sorry.

Good skills, man!

As my RS is my primary method of transportation, I just couldn't risk it.
But I intend to scratch my track day itch next spring with another outing to the Ron Haslam Race School...

Oh man, I'd LOVE to take that thing on track! I bet I would be quicker and more confident on it than I ever was on my 2006 R1. I even floated the idea of converting it to a track-dedicated machine in a few years' time when she needs a new bike, but I guess we'll need it for part-payment.

For now, though, I have the same reservations as I would taking my RS, so it's a non-starter.

Hi juergen,

Sorry, I was mistaken. It is an email from my BMW dealer. As you can see in the video , it is any personal bike, not restricted to BMW. Of course the day is a BMW promotional day with ride on one of the bikes in the attached picture available with prior booking.
