BMW S 1000RR Carbon Edition

.  

With 183hp at the wheel and starting at just $13,800, the BMW S1000RR is shaping up to be the hottest liter bike of 2010. The lucky dutch are getting an even hotter version, this BMW S1000RR Carbon Edition is equipped with carbon fiber fairings; all the DTC, ABS and alarm options boxes ticked; HP rearsets, brake and clutch levers and an Akrapovic exhaust canister. Of course, all that adds up to a much higher sticker price, increasing from €17,990 to €24,990.

Check out the huge effect adding a full Akrapovic system has on the mid-range torque curve of the S1000RR's DOHC, 16-valve, 999cc inline-four.
