Back
Europe dominates in Masterbike
super-shootout
The
annual Masterbike test conducted by an international group of
motorcycle journalists assembled in Spain has been completed. All nine
production superbikes from Japan and Europe, including 1000cc fours and
1200cc v-twins, were thoroughly tested at the same track.
First and second place, respectively, went to the new BMW S1000RR and
the Aprilia RSV4 Factory. With third place going to the MV Agusta F4.
The Japanese superbikes were swept aside by these stunning European marvels, a result which BRM can't disagree with at all.
We do however hope that this rise in quality, performance, technology
and overall competitiveness from the European manufacturers will lead
to a greater effort by the Japanese to once again outdo the Euro bikes.
