"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.

I think it looks great! Reminds me of the Ducati Scrambler (newer one off one)

The only BMW i'd ever own bike wise, think it looks great [thumbsup]  If ducati made a scrambler conversion kit for my s2r i'd do it in a second

Looks good. Sometimes BMW can get it right, other times  ???.

I agree.

Of course the exhaust would be hard to handle, but perhaps the sections near the rider's body could be made of double-walled, ceramic coated special pipes that do not transfer heat to the rider.  Maybe a carbon fiber covering would work.  I have carbon fiber mufflers on my Monster.  After a ride I can touch the mufflers without being burned.

bike looks great except for the absolutely horrible headlight and tail chop.

that single seat thing without something behind it is awful.

the exhaust looks great though.

Lovely!  The number plate seems a bit silly,though; I can't imagine it being all that dirtable.  Of course, the 1200GS can handle it, so, why not?

And I agree that the headlight / bracket needs a little more love.

It's like I keep saying:  Those who would sacrifice a free range session for a giant beer, deserve neither free range time nor a giant beer.

There is nothing noble in being superior to some other man.  The true nobility is in being superior to your previous self. And in bacon.

Equal parts:

1. Triumph Scrambler
2. KTM Duke
3. BMW HP2
4. Confederate Hellcat
5. Alien

...the everyman's bike?

I think they could pull it off...the only problem is that nobody rides the above bikes!

Time to put it in a movie.  Or have Obama riding it in a commercial.  People go crazy over that guy.
