Nitrousbird Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 What is the appeal to a BMW bike? More specifically, the sport and sport touring BMW bikes (the full touring I understand a bit more). I see them being quirky and expensive without any benefits, but I could be totally wrong about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gergwheel1647545492 Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 oh god i love that view too. wonder how hard it would be to put a new faring on the front Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo Vette Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Look the auto industry is down-sizing, restructuring...So here is what happened. They fired the design team in the middle of the front end, and brought the guys who designed the late 70's BMW cars in at half the salary.

sgtschulze Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 It might be ugly but we're still talking about it..... Marketing and Design have done their job IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo Vette Posted May 11, 2009 Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 It might be ugly but we're still talking about it..... Marketing and Design have done their job IMO. Good point. Look at it this way, I am sure it is badass and great to ride, you hardly see the front end while you are riding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see them being quirky and expensive without any benefits, but I could be totally wrong about that. BMW motorcycles are built rock solid. and are a chosen bike for sport touring, and adventure touring guys. they are one of the most reliable bikes out there, have great ergos, and are perfect for what they are built for.

JaSSon Posted May 12, 2009 Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 I can't figure out if I like it or not. At first glance i thought "Cool." then 2nd glance, not as much. Needs flush mount turn signals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
