Peter Hickman’s 2019 Smith’s Racing BMW S1000RR is heading to auction, and yeah, this isn’t just another ex-race bike with some stickers and a story. This is the bike that basically went on a revenge tour across real-road racing that year.
We’re talking about a machine that didn’t just win. It stacked wins across the North West 200, Isle of Man TT, and Ulster Grand Prix like it was collecting achievements in a video game.
At the North West 200, Hickman rolled in and immediately reminded everyone why he’s one of the fastest road racers alive. He took the Superstock win for the second year in a row on this exact BMW, set the pace in qualifying, and basically treated the grid like it owed him money.
