THE BMW S 1000 RR WAS UNVEILED in 2008 with the sole objective of competing in the 2009 World Superbike Championship. It was the most powerful motorcycle to be built by the German marque and, since then, there have been quite a few iterations of the model.
The BMW S 1000 RR was the bike of my dreams when I first saw it. This was because of the asymmetrical headlights that gave it an extremely unique design compared to any other sport bike at that time. In 2018, the bike got a huge design overhaul with which many enthusiasts, including me, were disappointed. However, when I did get to see the bike in person, it began to grow on me. While I had appreciated everything about this motorcycle from afar, I actually never got to swing my leg over one to ride it. I can finally put that behind me because I spent a fantastic day covering a distance of about 200 kilometres astride this absolute beast of a machine.
