TRACK BIKE BMW S1000RR - MICHAEL RUTTER BATHAMS RACING
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- I visited the Bathams BMW racing workshop this week for a socially distanced catch up. Whilst I was there I got Michael to talk me through how a BMW S1000RR road bike is converted into a Superstock 1000 race bike which I would say in my biased opinion is the ultimate track bike! Ready for the British Superbike Championship. Enjoy!

I could watch these videos all day. I love the techy side of Bsb,tt bikes
Thank you Andrew, I’m glad you’re enjoying them!
I love these types of videos showing workshops and technical specs of bikes. It'd be great to see more of these and some chats with other racers and pit crew too. Great video as always. Thank you.
Thanks Colin, hopefully I'll get some more in during next year.
Bathams bikes are by far the best looking! Loving this channel keep the vids coming!
Plenty more to come!
Yes they are 😂
Nice bloke Micheal , met him a couple of times a few yrs ago when I used to work on the gate at Mallory park , cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧
Brilliant again taylor! Was at your dads pals bike shop last week and seen/heard about the antics at knockhill 🤣
Haha brilliant 😂
Lovely insight this , especially the comments around possible use of carbon wheels
I saw Mad Mark at Donny on Wednesday. Absolutely star struck 😝 😂
Hahaha 😂😂
Another great video Taylor, Always good to hear from one of the nicest guys in racing Mr Rutter, Intiruged to know what your dad was buying...
He didn’t end up buying it, it was a Honda 50 😂
Loving the workshop stuff Taylor, thank you.
Thanks Nick, I’ll get some more done soon.
Great vid Taylor, makes a nice change to see something like this, esp M Rutter being on it....
Cheers Taylor enjoyed see the ‘blade’ in action. The first Superbike manufacturer that brings out a standard track bike is going to make a killing. Off the shelf with all road kit removed (and therefore cheaper) and with a warranty etc - I’d buy one
That would be cool if they did!
i love these vids
Thanks Ryan!
Love the behind the scenes stuff. If you get the opportunity to do a video on the full fat superbike then I’d be all over that like a fat kid on a chocolate cake!
Loving the content and good luck for the season opener in a few weeks.✊🏼
I’ll get one done 😁👍🏼
Loving this channel. This needs to be publicised more. The mad Marcs are hilarious.
Thanks Steve 😁
I watched the foggy patronas documentary and although ive ridden bikes all my life, it was only when i watched Corsa climbing all over the clay and wax model did i realise how gently they hold the bike in their hands. Truly stunning are the skills these riders have.
Thanks guys, yes more pls,great insight
Thanks Kevin, plenty more to come 👍🏼
I enjoy listening to michael, he's a mass of information but very rarely he gives interviews , would love to hear himself and your dad sit down for a cuppa and a chat about the old days, that would be so cool, and i'm sure all the other subscribers would love it also. Great interview Taylor.
I've been planning that for a while but I haven't had chance, I'll get it done at some point!
Class vid Taylor 🙌🙌🙌😎😎😎👍loving the varied content kiddy 👍🙌
Thanks Shaun!
Rutter is my favourite and his book was great
He's a top bloke!
You know you’re getting old when you think.. ‘Please also show that classic Gixxer 750’ lol 😄
😂😂
Taylor i watched you in a super stock race a season or 2 ago .jesus you carved trough the field like i was watching a video game. Unreal you were on rail's lad. I hope you give pink boots a hard Time this season. Good luck in 2021 champion again I will say.🏁🏴🏁🏴🇬🇧
Thanks so much! I’m hoping there’ll be more of it to come😂
The best thing I did for my RVF 400 was to put on a YSS rear shock and Ktech springs on the front. Mallory Park was so much better - Donnington next (if I can get on track - its sooo busy).
Great video and a really good insight into what goes into making a Super Stock bike, 👍🏍
Thanks Graham
Proper bit of kit! Also, love the pic on the wall of Michael and Hizzy 👍
It definitely is and that is a cool pic!
Really enjoyed this, good insight stuff. Only just picked up your channel, saw the Donnie 'accidental' fork work. Again, good luck at Brands and more vids.
Thanks Steve, I should have a few more garage based videos over the winter to do.
👍
As an s1000rr 2020 owner myself, I’d love to see more in depth stuff about turning a standard bike into a super stock bike - as long as you promise not to tell my mrs how much it costs 😂
😂😂 I’m sure there’ll be a few more BMW videos to come.
Very good Taylor, There a lot more money involved in turning, The bmw into, what’s classed as a super stocker, To get a race machine, than many would of thought. Would that make, The Suzuki probably the closest to a road bike
Thanks Dave. Pretty much all of the Superstock bikes make the same changes to race them at the front of that class. Exhaust, suspension, bodywork and all the other little bits.
This popped up on my feed. I wonder if he would talk about David Jefferies. He was my favourite growing up. Won superstock twice too.
I’ll have to ask him Jim
SOL supercars of London would be a good collab. New to biking. Take him on his first trackday/ride out etc
Great idea Callum I’ll definitely reach out!
Easily the best looking race bikes out there in Bathams colours.
I couldn’t agree more😍
love tis vid . you have a job waiting when ( in lots of years to come ) you retire
Thanks Alex 😁
Your Dad promised me at Knockhill there was more Mad Mark coming..... get it uploaded or I'm grassing on him for buying those bikes 😅
Mad Mark 3 is being filmed today, hopefully it’ll be ready for next weekend. They’re taking more and more planning 😂 it’ll be worth the wait.
We now have the man hours involved but the big question...how much $$$ did that conversion cost in parts. (I'm guessing $12K for the parts) and rounding up, close to 20K for parts and labor, plus the cost of the bike. So to start the season at least a 40K investment on the bike a lone. Then triple or XXX...'s for cost of replacements parts thru out the season.
There's another video on my channel which covers it 😁👍🏼
The penny just dropped who your pop driver is lol. Quality.
Haha, thank you!
No no thank you guys.
Is that anti lock brakes and do you use it on the stocker?
It is ABS yes, but we disconnect it for racing.
I can see my toes from here :)
Is that green frame at 4:20 significant in any way?
I hadn't even noticed it, technical glitch on my part!
great Video , would love to know how much it costs to do the whole conversion
Off the top of my head they’re around £30-35,000 when finished. 🤯😬
Ok late again,
So, what l just noticed is on the way in there was a kinda pensive look on yer face.
The way home...
Not so much.
So was ,( for that year, and before the faux pas ) the big coin exchange.
My first real race motor l was counting pennies and shitting myself.
Train, train, train.
Annnnd GO.
Cheers.

Thank you Tony!
Rutter is a tad grumpy .
Always 😂
