Thats a good point.
The s1000rr was such a capable machine when it came out it could virtually be raced stock from the dealer.
Its a bit like having a bmw car in the showroom for sale that could qualify in a DTM race.
And it was a very good efford too, as bmw has never been a player in the superbike market with their models (more enduro oriented I guess), so they stepped in and got it pretty much right first time as the bike got very popular.
Thats quite an achievement from the Berlin division.
