All I know is, I have a k1200s sitting in my shed with a blown motor. While riding down the hwy, BOOM!. Thanks for no help from BMW! That was my fourth BMW and my last one. BMW will leave you hanging. Beware before you buy a BMW motorcycle. I bought a Suzuki and have never been happier. Defect or not BMW told me its my problem,THANKS BMW! JUNK! LEMON!
i had a k1200s and i ran a 07 busa and smashed its ass in a race on the interstate, i only weigh125 and the busa rider was probably 190-200 lbs but yeah i would agree that the busa is probably more reliable cause i went through 1 gearbox and a clutch in the bmw. but it is a beautiflly built bike considering the comfort and the way it handles. if only it didnt have the flaws.
I had a Kawasaki ZZR1400 (ZX14 here in Australia) before, and now I have a BMW K1200S. Apart from a better top end on the Kwaka, and a similiar mid range, the BMW is a better bike all-round. Nicer spread of power, easier handling, more comfortable, more luxuries and even more economical! Buy the Kwaka over the BMW if you are after a higher top speed, otherwise buy the BMW. Cant comment on the Suzuki though.

Who the fuck are you I was talking about the bikes and along comes you, probably unemployed with nothing better to do than to take my tax money and find fault with other people. get a job you PARASITE.
I initially posted a snippy response, but I decided to be friendly instead.
Though I was attempting to jab at you with some humor, I understand it may not have come across that way. I'm merely irritated that you state a personal opinion and attempt to enforce your statement as fact, when in the end it remains your opinion and nothing else.
Could you at least clarify what you consider a 'raw bike' and how the type of bike someone rides identifies their riding skill?
such a silly comment, if you knew anything about those riders you would know that they are quite competent sportbike rider that have been at it for a while. Just because someone is past 30 hardly qualifies them for demotion to cruiserdom.
How old do you think guys that own these kinds of bikes are anyhow? I know plenty of sportbike owners in their 40's that are superb riders.
Not saying all older men shouldn't ride a sport bike just saying that they are using sport bikes as a cruiser and not once do they at least open the throtle a little bit. I know older rides to that still ride wise but atleast get on the gas from time to time. Why compair top hp sport bikes like they do. Thus, their review really sucks! And they fit the profile of old men.
ok, high speed doesn't matter caus you'll never really do that regularly. but 0-60, the bmw is the fastest because it's got the longest wheelbase so it doesn't wheelie as much under heavy power
A bussa has never beaten my BM K1200R on a track day. The Bussa is a great example of the Jap bikes needing to pump out the most horses at any cost or sacrafice.
This video is pointless. How about some real info on the bikes instead of just telling the viewer where you have been, where you are going, and what you are drinking!? There's like 10 seconds of actual riding footage here.
Get the BMW, better residual values, better real world performance, better technology and an engine that is not one step away from busting through overstressing. I tried them all when I got my K1200S and nothing compares to it now or then. Your Busa will lose 25% as soon as it leaves the showroom and you can't ride it through the winter like I ride my BMW.
Nice video. I'm looking to buy one here in Chiang Mai Thailand, I think its the perfect blend for up here. The toss up has been across a varied bunch from a Harley night rod, a Zx-10 to a Triumph street fighter speed Triple. Are you still happy with your busa, is there anything that should be changed or avoided? Thanks
Offfical dyno results BY MCN: 08 BUSA restricted on the dyno they got 183.01bhp at the rear wheel not the crank! with 108.14ftlp of torque!! The new ZZR14 restricted "only" managed 167.55bhp with 104.36ftlb of torque 15.46bhp and 3.78ftlb of torque down on the new busa!
