My brother in England has a S1000RR and it's freaking awesome

Wasn't there talk of this bike supposed to take out the 'Busa for the speed record? Then it never happened like most other companies that claim they will beat the speeds.

Description: The M5 on the other hand is powered by a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8, producing 552hp and a 0-60mph time of 4.4 seconds. It's also far easier to chuck around in the wet. Check out the video to see wh...

Forgive the grammar my iPhone is not happy

Shane Heid Dec 19, 2011
@zain that was retarded thing to say. Or all you know I may or may not hold a degree in automotive sciences, just cause I don't check ring times every day doesnt mean I have a lot to learn

Shane Heid Dec 19, 2011
Last I checked the cts v was the fastest production sedan around the ring. Given that was almost half a year ago I checked, has it changed since?

Edgar Jauregui Dec 19, 2011
The M5 did beat the CTS-V.... Idk why ppl keep arguing over it. Yes, the cadi is an amazing car, but so is the M5 and it won at the 'ring

Lamine Sarr Dec 18, 2011
The F10 M5 beats both the CTS-V and the PANAMERA

Zain Sheikh Dec 18, 2011
Hahaha Shane have you got alot to learn

Cody Andree Dec 18, 2011
"didn't beat it around Nurburgring" hahaha

Kenneth Williams Dec 18, 2011
I saw this bike a couple days ago. Talked to the guy that had it. He was kind of a deuce but it Probly was one of the best looking bikes I've seen.

Shane Heid Dec 18, 2011
Yes the cts v did beat it on the nurburgring. And every other sedan as well

Jack Howard Dec 18, 2011
The S100RR wouldve demolished it on dry conditions.

Irvenderjit Singh Pannu Dec 18, 2011
The cts v didn't beat it on the nurburgring though

4.4 is sloppy for the price, CTS-V @ 3.9 please

Damn right, BMW is the superbike original

Mathew Caleb Stanfield Dec 18, 2011
FACT is that BMW was making bikes before Kawasaki was even thought of

Jack Howard Dec 18, 2011
And do you honestly think BMW would copy kawi? BMW motorcycles teamed up with their Formula 1 team to do this bike

Jack Howard Dec 18, 2011
The kawisaki was made after this came out because the technology in this bike was outstanding and no one could match so 2 years later kawi came out with one so it could compete with it. Get your facts straight dude

Michael Palazzo Dec 18, 2011
I'll take the bike and a quicker car than the M5. My buddy had this bike, its wiles fast! It's got over 200 hp and and weighs just shy of 500 lbs!

Chris Benson Dec 18, 2011
Kaw knockoff at best.

The normal 5 series should handle better, like e39 did. New m5 have really good handling still.
