Hello from Norfolk o/

Hi!
I put heart before head and got myself the bike I longed for - I now have a FAB new S1000XR…
Red - because its faster.
My previous bike was an F800GSA so all this power is something new to learn!
I need to still work my way though half the running in period and it’s killing me looking outside right now at the sunny skies. I could be riding if I wasn’t working.

Welcome Rachel
Enjoy the new bike but sorry to say white is definitely faster than red, which I can neither confirm or deny is faster than grey

We've been through this many times, chaps. BMW call it RACING red, so they know it's fastest, and even give the red ones a few more bhp at the factory.

Welcome Rachel & enjoy the new toy
This work thing is overrated isn't it ?
Rich, they only call it 'racing' to make you guys feel better about not having a white one
Imagine if everyone bought a white one just cos it's faster (& sexier obviously)....
