Production of BMW's superbike (the one you can buy!) has started in the BMW Motorrad Plant in Berlin.
With a 999cc in-line 4-cylinder engine and a dry weight of 183 kg, plus newly developed sports ABS featuring four different modes as well as the dynamic traction control system DTC will be available.
The serial production machine BMW S 1000 RR will be presented to the public in the early summer 2009 but can be ordered in dealerships now apparently.
Ride safe.
