    I know this won't be popular, but I kinda of want the man to hang up his competitive lid; he's been so successful, he's got absolutely nothing to prove to anyone, he's got his lovely family..., I mean, I want him to do what he wants to do, but I just hope he doesn't push beyond what his years can support...

    Quick correction: 204hp and 214hp are crank numbers, not rear wheel... unless your dyno is way off of reality. Cycle World’s dyno posted 182 for the BMW, which matches the advertised crank figure of 205hp from BMW when you subtract the average drivetrain loss of around 10%.

    Great to see McPint on the channel !! Question.. Did you guys try different map settings on the bikes? being an Aprilia owner and ridden the BMW it makes a big difference to the throttle response changing maps on both. It always surprises me that reviewers don't change settings, power and suspension settings when the manufacturers spend millions £ developing them

    • @bennettsbikesocial
      @bennettsbikesocial  5 років тому +2

      S K We played with some but not all of the settings. You’re absolutely right, it’s important to find the ideal combination for your style of riding. I’m just back from the R1 launch and certainly found a slightly softer power setting more beneficial on corner exit.

      @@ChrisMag100 yeah, but on the RSV4 it's a euro 5 emissions compliant system with a catalytic converter. There's no two ways about it, that will reduce power and increase weight. I lost 5kg and gained 4bhp by just getting rid of my catted exhaust. The BMW had a unrestricted full aftermarket system on that added 11bhp and reduced weight by quite a few kg.

    • @bennettsbikesocial
      @bennettsbikesocial  5 років тому

      Sierra Nevada It’s just how we’re running our long-term BMW at the moment which agreeably isn’t how some might wish to see head-to-head tests although the extra power figure and torque figures are in the mid-range, not peak, which is where the Aprilia is particularly strong. By having the modifications on the BMW it aligns the two bikes for retail price. They’re both very strong bikes on and off track! I think if anyone was going to choose between these two then they’d ride both to begin with.

    As someone who only owns bikes with carbs, the only place i'd like a little assistance from a throttle mapping is the initial opening of the throttle body, to prevent the jolt when on max lean on an apex.
    I tried an early sv650 with injection, and honestly that was no better than my 30 year old bikes... is that "problem" gone on new bikes?
    PS i tend to just solve the problem by running higher RPMs when i go for a corner on high lean - no biggie really

    So the BMW is de-catted with 11bhp, 9.5nm extra and less weight... But you're comparing it to a bone stock bike? Imagine adding 11bhp to any motorbike! Was the race ecu at least activated for the Aprilia?

    • @bennettsbikesocial
      @bennettsbikesocial  5 років тому

      It’s 11bhp extra in the mid-range, c. 8.5k rpm, not peak. And it’s the mid-range where the Aprilia is particularly strong. We’ve been running the BMW with a full system for a while and thought the Aprilia was the only modern day bike with similar performance... and price once the Alta system is included.
      It was never meant to mislead which is why I mention it so blatantly in the intro to the video. Yes, the RACE mode was activated on the RSV4.

    I own the ‘19 Tuono V4 1100 Factory and went to test ride the new S1000 the other day with a completely open mind to see what all the fuss was about....couldn’t wait to get back on my Aprilia the whole test ride. Although the BMW has more claimed top end HP it just feels like a 600cc compared to the Aprilia V4 and there was nothing exciting whatsoever about the engine. The Aprilia may have a lower top end HP figure but I promise you with that 1100cc V4 it will pull harder and faster to any top speed than the BMW and will keep pulling like a bullet train till you run out of road or more realistically - run out of balls. I found the BMW boring and bland with no engine character. The Aprilia on the other hand puts the world’s biggest smile on your face and that throttle is literally a detonator. When you pin it you feel like the bike will launch you to the moon.
    Took the bike back to BMW and told the sales rep that there’s nothing out there that would make me give up my Aprilia V4, that V4 engine is pure adrenaline and thrills and the sound alone is addictive. I would urge anyone split between the bikes to ride the Aprilia and BMW back to back and you will come to the same conclusion.

      I own a 2017 RSV4RF 1000cc and I went and took out a new S1000RR cash in pocket ready to go, but after riding it for about 3/4 of an hour I was a bit underwhelmed, yes it is fast & very easy to ride but the bike does feel a bit strangled, you don't get an impression of torque at all, it really needed winding up into the higher RPM - yes then it flies, it handled ok, brakes ok, .... it was all just ok, not the exciting super bike I was expecting, could have been on a GSXR to be honest. I am taking one out again very soon just for fun, but for me the engines of the Ducati V4, Aprilia V4 and the Yamaha CP4 are just so much better, just the sound, midrange and usability wins hands down. Still would like to try the BMW on track though !

    I love the BMW but I'll take the Aprilia.
    Reason being that I prefer the animal that needs to be tamed rather than the BMW, because it's so easy to ride, that I'd be racing everywhere at top speed EVERYWHERE! It's soooooo capable that it rides itself, it disappears underneath you, which for me is not what I need as I would stalk the streets looking for things to kill.
    It would be the end of my license, kinda like with my H2.

      No, just the full system. The vastly complex computer and lamda sensors sort the air/fuel mix. It’d like to have it remapped just to see the difference though.

      Sorry but the inline 4 on the S1000 feels so underpowered, under-torqued and boring compared to the bigger V4 engines on the Aprilias and Ducatis.

    • @fahadladha6938
      @fahadladha6938 5 років тому +1

      Agreed, for the track the BMW is the better bike purely because of how predictable and boring it is which is perfect when you’re racing. And as you say the capacity restrictions. Also a lot lighter. But for the road the Aprilia is better hands down.

    • @bennettsbikesocial
      @bennettsbikesocial  5 років тому +3

      Fahad Ladha It certainly makes its power on quite a secretive way - you don’t feel fast but with 204bhp and plenty of torque in its standard format, you can cover plenty of ground. I understand what you mean about the character of the V4 offering more of a riding experience too. Cheers, Michael
