Ditto.
The anniversario has always been on of my top favorite bikes!

I'm anxiously awaiting the debut to see what come with the 100 year anniversario V4 Panigale... that may be replacing my HP4 in about 5 years from now, unless BMW presents something more appealing around the same time.

Enjoy that beautiful beast in good health!

Bikes are fast from standstill but on a roll ive raced a r1 and at highspeeds cause of the drag and wind they can't hang.

Cool video thx, M8's are beastly!
Agreed.

I have run with some seriously fast bikes and they cannot really hang as well once over 100.

Entertaining video but I can never for the life of me understand why these guys shift themselves instead of letting the computer do the work, you’re just killing your ET in the 1/4.

I loved both of my M6 GCs but the 8 is superior in every single way (mmmm, bar one, perhaps--the F06 DCT was better than the ZF)--I'd recommend driving one for an extended period of time; there's no comparison.

The 100 year will be insane...I'm tempted by the V4 Anniversario now, I haven't experienced that engine. My L-twin version is absolutely nuts.

Be safe brother.

As my signature suggest I have a mildly tuned 2011 ZX10R; I've done a track day and been ridding sport bikes since 1994 yikes!!! With over 100,000 miles of street ridding experience.

Street ridding has become way more risky, so I ride less and only optimal conditions so I'm still able to enjoy ridding.

The M3 is Phenomenal though!

There's room in my stable right next to the M4 for an RR pony.

Good Lord, you just need more seat time in the M8.

Prepare to be impressed.
