Not a lot of surprises tbh, but majorly impressive time by the RSV4.

Everyone has been talking about the 2015 s1000rr, R1 and 1299 as the bikes of 2015 but looks like APrilla has come in with a late entry and blitz'd everyone.

Who was the rider? I take it they used the same person for each bike?

Was that the best lap produced on the bike or the average?

Those power figures are mind blowing.

I've read there is a new gsxr coming out next year. It will only leave Honda to update theirs then..

Can't imagine anyone would be disappointed with any of those. It's all about personal choice.
