Bike of the year #2

The BMW 1100S in 4th place should be in 2nd and he VFR in 1st. If you haven't riden the 1100s you need to. Very similar to the vfr. a matter of fact it is better compared to the vfr than the BMW 800s. The 800s is lacking in power and in my oppinion not in the same legue although Cycle World compared them.

 

wow, that's a screwy website. the '06 lineup is full of HDs with an MV Agusta thrown in to the mix. that's odd!

 

I would throw the FZ1 in the mix, now thats a rightous bike.

 

When I voted fot the VFR, there was the "compare" section at the bottom of the following page,
after I clicked "submit rating".
I filled boxes with "1999", "BMW" and clicked "Compare rating". I chose "R1200C" and
I again clicked "Comapre rating". You will see a chart showing R1200C and VFR together.
In that chart VFR is already ranked much higher than R1200c except at off road capability.
