BMW F 900 R Cup Racer is NAUGHTY! 

A Cup Replica would be mighty sweet!

Just what i was going to reply. 105hp. 100nm and 179kg.. Hasqvarna nuda for the road... I have one and love it... I was like... Brilliant they revived the nuda but at 219kg f900r and down on hp and nm different frame. They have not.. I thought swm might have had the rights to do so from old husqvarna and my anticipation is waiting.

One day, but not today

I could see the nomenclature being an “M900RR”

Is it a full system? Did you remap it? Or just slip on?

@@latarn817 I've got a new "Dominator" exhaust (Polish company) and the sound is absolutely crazy. My F900r is got the restiction for the A2 license and I think the sound will be improved by unrestriciting.

I had one, a replika

@@stephenmcqueen4029 I have a knackered R1100S that I really need to something with replica replika?

Anglesey is a beautiful track both in terms of how technical it is as well as the location and surroundings. The green grass plains on one side and the cliffside views on the other 😍 That's one reason why Chris Harris used to test/review cars almost always back in the day.

I absolutely agree, to put it into perspective I went 11 seconds faster around cadwell park after getting forks sprung/set up and fitting an ohlins shock…..I then went a further 4 seconds faster after fitting a k-tech cartridge kit, it was a different bike that just inspired confidence.

Never really thought of the F 900 R as a proper rival to those you mentioned. Well, in standard trim, it severely lacks in most departments

In standard trim it’s the most lack of character in a bike that I have ridden.

@@FortyFourTeeth Really? Standard trim that bike has roughly the same power with a better spread, brakes off of an S1000XR which are loaddsss better than the MT09's wooden pads, and the suspension with D-ESA is well sorted, if not up to par with the MT09 SP and KTM 890 R specifically, but it's definitely a match for the base MT09 and base 890

@Franz Fanon not necessarily, all depends on weight, torque and obviously power output

@Franz Fanon I did 4 x back to back track days around 4 circuits in the south island nz.. I was riding my husqvarna nuda pretty much a f900r but with under seat fuel tank and 179kg.. My best match for fun was ktm690 one was stanard and the other was fettelled with. The ktm is about 134kg and 72hp from memory... Obviously it cornering was amazing but what suprised me was the grunt out of corners and i only just had a bit more on the straights upto 180kph.. So lap for lap depending on the circuit it was a heaps of fun play with the strengths and weaknesses.. My lap times are the quickest on this bike over other bikes ive Had ontrack days bcs of the confidence it gives to put it hard.. On one corner i remember lifting my foot off the right hand peg as it was getting squashed on the frame as the peg hinged up while scrapping on the ground..

I recon it would be pretty close.. My mate raced a nuda and best lap was 1.39 another mate raced a sv650 he was about 1.41 from memory.. Different bikes and riders the nuda guy was very competitive and had won a few times in class .. So it could be pretty close , those f900r / nuda nakeds run out of puff much after 200km, the 100hp rs660 may slip through the straights a fraction quicker???

How has the reliability been? The f900r ticks all the boxes I have for a second bike. The only thing I don’t like is the foot pegs hit the back of my lower legs when my feet are both on the ground.

@@keltecdan I have a f900r as well and I didn't have a problem so far, but the footpegs are on a weird position and they caused me to crash the bike on the first week of having it

@@keltecdan It's been pretty good - had a few glitches but I use it pretty heavily - done 19k miles so far including a lot of track days, some touring and a lot of commuting. It's a perfect all rounder - you can take it to Germany for the Nurburgring, take the top box off and zoom around, then head back through the motorways of Belgium, all with no problems. The electronics are fantastic as well.

@@vincents8165 Wish I could ride one through Europe but I’m in the states. We have really nice winding roads but they are spread out either in California, Colorado and Tennessee. I like the F900r since I’m considering one however I don’t like the heavy weight of the bike and the foot pegs hit the back of my legs when my feet are on the ground. I guess they’re in a weird position.

@@keltecdan I was a bit worried about the weight because I came from a much smaller bike (G310R) but weirdly the F900R feels much more stable when riding - not sure if it's the electronics or something else but you get a lot less pushed around by wind or turbulence from other vehicles. I got a G310R as a replacement during the last service and it was striking how much more stable the F900R was. I haven't noticed the foot pegs but that might be because my last bike was similar

I agree I had one for 2 years but just sold mine for a Aprilia Tuono

H should have a collar and a ball gag to go with those leathers, if they ever do a remake of Pulp Fiction he's in with a shout 😂

They will

...they do

Go to 8m15s 👍

Boothy is doing as well as can be expected but his focus is purely on making as good a recovery as possible. We’re catching up with him in a few weeks

@@FortyFourTeeth Cheers for the update. His been on my mind lately, been missing him. Wishing him the very best!

@@FortyFourTeeth Wish him all the best from us.

@@FortyFourTeeth along with what I’d bet to be an aggressive recovery regime I think we can expect to see him somehow managing to get back on a bike with a prosthetic. He ain’t out. And I’m also betting his spirits are high. Just another challenge. Hope to see him soon!

Nice one

Didn’t really take that into account when scheduling

Right?!?! Nuda mmmmm my dream bike. I had F800S with Akra and it sounded nice but Nuda with Leo is a god of thunder

Yep... I second that.. Why have they dumbed down the power on the f900r.. I'd bet its the same engine?? Euro5?? No numbers for the cup bike? Nuda 105hp . 100nm. 179kgs.. I love mine.

It’s just off the shelf stuff by the looks of it. K-Tech fork cartridge kit and rear shock, rear sets, an arrow exhaust and an ecu flash to suit the system. Apart from bmw then locks the ecu to prevent tampering.

im waiting for the new honda hornet

@@JustWill22 Same, looking to get a motorcycle next spring.

Yeah he lapped me 3 times in one session

@@FortyFourTeeth you’ll get there one day………..

Just pleased to see you..

Nevermind the length, it’s all about the girth 😉

No because I was thinking full fairings as a middleweight sorry bike for bmw

Buy an F900R and add an exhaust, that's all you need to do. Maybe an ECU tune. The rest is just body kit and fork internals.

@@Win7ermu7eF900 and a full arrow system here I come !! 🫡
