If only it wasn't so fugly. I like the orange and I like beemers, but there's something that doesn't quite flow. The way the sexy monster flows.
I'd have to see it in person, ride it and maybe get a full experience before I totally write it off, but overall my first impressions is bleh. Title: Re: bmw's new attempt at a monster ... Post by: Holden on November 16, 2008, 02:14:44 AM So, what kind of bike do you ride?
I ride a BMW. ;) No way! Boy, don't you just love that smooth boxer engine and the maintenance-free drive shaft? I sure wish my bike had that kind of distinction. [bow_down] Uhh... :-[ Title: Re: bmw's new attempt at a monster ... Post by: powerband on November 16, 2008, 08:30:45 AM I like the little turkey wings sprouting from the tank.

Title: Re: bmw's new attempt at a monster ... Post by: proclivity on November 19, 2008, 08:39:02 AM i think it looks decent.......air box runners could use an overhaul though. from the side they look like they stick out past the handlebars.

But nobody is going to give it a second take. If i found it in my garage one day I wouldn't kick it out. It would be the bike to ride in the rain and not worry about it being all scummy.

I mean if I paid that much for a bike I'd lose my sense of humor too. ;D ;D Title: Re: bmw's new attempt at a monster ... Post by: desmoquattro on November 20, 2008, 05:20:35 PM Hey, now. Be nice.
