After months of testing, Pegram unleashed the new bike at the opening round of the 2011 AMA Pro Road Racing American Superbike Series at Daytona International Raceway in Daytona, Fla. Although he placed ninth off the pole and fell further behind after a first-lap crash, Pegram remounted and worked his way up to seventh. On Saturday, he pushed his new bike one spot better, finishing sixth.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDaytona didn\u2019t go exactly how I had hoped,\u201d said Pegram. \u201cBut the BMW S 1000 RR is a fast bike and I feel like we\u2019ve really got it dialed in now. We\u2019re looking forward to the next race and I think this is going to be a great season.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/-sa2mEjVVZXs\/TYpkRhbJMfI\/AAAAAAAAAW4\/z8PyDT65yAI\/s1600\/article+3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/-sa2mEjVVZXs\/TYpkRhbJMfI\/AAAAAAAAAW4\/z8PyDT65yAI\/s320\/article+3.jpg\" width=\"320\" height=\"205\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Team AMSOIL\/EBR rider Geoff May climbed aboard his proven EBR 1125 model to finish 20th and 12th respectively.
