Italian bikes are teh sexzee, but the BMW has a ton of cool tech in it, and would think BMW builds more reliable bikes, no? I dunno how BMW is with build quality on bikes.I recall conversations with guys who were Beemer Bike guys from way back when I was working the shop back in Jax and they seemed to say that BMWs were almost as frequent in their shop visits as their Italian counterparts were. Recall more than a few shaft drive and oil sump issues, but it has been a month full of sundays since then. I dig the cool tech stuff, so long as I can truly utilize it. If the sexiness gives me more than the techy stuff, give me the sexie. No one has ever banged a chick because her lungs take in twice as much air as her same-size-chested counterparts. But I know where you're coming from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disclaimer Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) You're mah boy, blue!!... I mean, Steve. And what can I say... the engineer is function > form. But, to be fair to BMW... this is their most 'Japanese' bike yet. I4 like them, chain drive like them, etc... none of the really fancy shaft drive and non-performance oriented luxury BS they've got on their other bikes.

It does have that land of the rising sun look and feel to it, aside from the jack-o-lantern looking headlamps. I was just happy to see them get away from the opposed twin look. Ick.
