Default New Bimmer!!!


80hp and under 200kgs fully tanked. Well, I guess that's good for a BMW

I love riding Bimmers. They're so much more refined than any other bike I've been on.

Anyone else here ride a BMW?

Refined? Perhaps you mean 'slower'

As for the new one I am interested to see what BMW's take on the parallel layout is like.

The bike above is by no means "slow"

170 hp

Haven't even broken it in yet so I've yet to see it's potential.

Whatever floats your boat, always found the BMW's (apart from the RG's) not to be my cup of tea. There was one of theose Ducati's at the track the weekend, individual looking bike thats for sure.

I like how BMW styles their bikes. Every Jap bike looks the same, at least the Germans like to do something different.

The only way I would ever get a BMW bike is if I got this to match.

BMW = The Ultimate Driving Machine

Therefore making a "full on sportbike" would be catagory specific?
