Great, cause I don't already want a BMW enough.
If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

It does seem pretty generic. No something-lever forks or other weird suspension bits, no big jugs poking out the side.

Cool website though (www.s1000rr.com).

Looks like a motorcycle rather than a failed design experiment by a blind retard from the 80s.  In that sense, it's a huge step up for BMW. 



(I actually don't feel that strongly about BMWs, but it was fun to write). 
Occasionally AFM #702  My stuff:  The M1000SS, a mashed r6, Vino 125, the Blonde, some rugrats, yuppie cage, child molester van, bourbon.

Ya I agree. But I don't know. It's a little weird. It doesn't have that refined "mean yuppy" look the cars have these days, nor the painful " I just traveled across the Sahara 'function-first'" look their other bikes have. But it's definitely evil. Kind of evil Honda +1.

PS. I am kind of glad another Euro bike is getting into the race. Its been Japan centric for so long.

Hmmm. Now I know why the bike's going to be so damn expensive:

They spent all their money on a cool website :)
I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...
