2014 v 2015 BMW S1000RR
BMW claims their new, third-generation S1000RR is lighter and more powerful than ever. We’re putting that to the test by pitching the new machine against the out-going model.
We’ll speed test both Beemers and strap them to our dyno to see if the new bike really does makemore power at the back wheel and if it can get close to the German firm’s claimed 199bhp power figure.
We’ve already ridden the 2015 S1000RR on-track at its launch in November and we were amazed by its easy speed, but to find out if it behaves itself just as well in the real world, we’ll also be riding it on the road… so it’s a good job it has heated grips!

2004 Yamaha V Max – Motorcycles
Coming up with interesting metaphors and similes for the Yamaha V-Max is like shooting fish in a barrel. We should use the V-Max to describe disturbingly strong forces in nature, not the other way around. In 2005 the V-Max celebrates its 20th birthday as the king of asphalt-shredding speed and power. Not Mr. Max. Yes, the V-Max lives up to its reputation as one of the sickest quarter-mile machines on the market, despite its age. Twisting the throttle opens the door to an acceleration portal few casual riders should attempt. It’s a little like when the Millennium Falcon goes into light-speed mode and the stars transform from tight dots to streaking rays of light, that’s what Mr. Max does to the senses. Most know a V-Max when they see it, and even the most hardened bike vets will get a little twinkle in their eye when approaching Max. Wick it on and the V-Max accelerates quickly off idle like a high-powered Twin, but things really start to get interesting once the tach hits 6000 rpm. At that point Yamaha’s “V-Boost” kicks in and rapid acceleration gives way to face-flattening speed. Max torque only logs 76.6 lb-ft @ 6300 rpm. The V-Max’s horsepower numbers are equallydisgraceful; it only cranks out 110.6 hp at 8200 rpm, cresting the 100-hp mark from 7100 rpm to redline at 9350. The V-Max pumps out 110.6 ponies at 8200 rpm, while torque is equally impressive thanks to 76.6 lb-ft at 6300 rpm. Moreover, the 5-speed transmission is still light years ahead of many of today’s bikes that are considered front-runners in the power-cruiser category. At low speeds, the V-Max is quick steering and can be maneuvered easily, but at cruising speeds Max is a little less steady. Moreover, the spindly 40mm fork has a tough time holding up the 580 lbs pounds of Max when entering corners at high speeds. It’s reasonably suited for moderate riding, but a bike this fast needs an updated fork for more assured corner entries and exits and stable handling. Certainly, this is the biggest area in need of attention on the V-Max. A more rigid chassis and an improved front fork would bolster handling at high speeds, which would unquestionably turn Max into a true streetfighter. Imagine this engine in a sportier chassis like the FZ1!
