Will most likely be too pricey to be worth it. It will sell though to a higher end/older bike rider, I doubt it will be the "bargain" of a Japanese Liter bike tho.

455 lbs and 193 hp, sounds like a death trap!

I'm still waiting to hear an exact price and release date. If it is only slightly more than the Japanese bikes I might be interested, but it IS a BMW. I'm going to be looking for a bike soon, might not be until next spring. I want something different though.

I would expect the price to be in the low to mid 20's.

i'd like to take one for a spin & see how it handles.

bmw has had many hi-tech features on there bikes for years that were un-heard of by other motorcycle companys for a log time. Thinks like anti-lock brakes & other bad weather accomidating features.

I'm curious to see how it rides. I'm assuming that the suspension is gonna be one of the best stock setups out there.

I was thinking one with all options would be around 20...I really don't know what prices these bikes are coming in at though.

I'm more interested in a great suspension out of the box. So that's why I'm interested. Can you get other BMW bikes without ABS and all that ish?

you could.. but then what would be the point in buying a bmw bike over something just as reliable and powerful for a way cheaper price?

Haha might be true. I don't know if all that stuff is needed though. I just don't want the same bike that everyone and their mom has. :roll:
