5. BMW K1200S 167 mhh (268 km/h)
With

BMW K1200S hurls you from a dead stop to sixty mph in just 2.8 seconds.
Once you're over the whiplash, you'll keep climbing, topping out at
speeds that run neck-and-neck with the fastest production motorcycles in
the world.
4. Ducati 1098s 169 mph (271 km/h)
The
Ducati 1098 is a 1099 cc L-twin sport bike manufactured by Ducati. It

the 999. The 1098 makes a manufacturer claimed 160 horsepower, 90.4
ft-lb torque, and weighs 173kg. These figures gives the 1098 the highest
torque-to-weight ratio of any production sport bike ever made.

Suzuki & Yamaha). When introduced, Yamaha YZF-R1 motor-bike took
the class closer to a true racing motor-bike, and increased the handling
