They just stole the idea from Harley. Stick out tongue

No......I guess you need a new idea first for someone to steal it. (Ha! Take that Milwaukee )

New Rule- Nothing new goes on the bike...unless its Black!

**Yamaha has "officially" denied that the Midnight Warrior is equipped with a superior engine to the other colors, but that's because the lawyers told em' to say that.**

The race bike concept looks great, figures they will use it in a bagger first. That exhaust looks sweet.

i always did not like bmw. even if it's one of the rare bike-builders in my country.

but after this superbike, the custom concept

and now the 6 cylinder they really start to awake my interest...

those are some sweet rides and who knows: if the warrior is done in about 5+ years...

Life may be hard but the alternative sucks!

It ain't no Harley. brablabruhbrahblahbrubrubrabrua!!!!

But seriously... it has to be better than that flat-2 design. I hate that look. Probably not many leg injuries for bmw riders who crash with that setup, at least. I'm not a bmw fan but if they start using this engine then I may start to pay attention to them a little.

Awesome, Takes me back:

Nice to see BMW coming out with something I'd actually be interested in.

Where's the V6, has anyone produced a bike motor with a V6?....like the VMax V4 on steroids!

Rides:
2003 Suzuki Volusia 800 (too small, sold)
2005 Yamaha Road Star Warrior 1700 (Awesome - medical reason forced sale
(Unfortunate, Unscheduled, Car Induced, Violent Bicycle Dismount)clicky details)
2006 Suzuki VStrom 1000 (GREAT deal forced trade)
2007 Yamaha FJR AE 1300 (FJR: Freakin Japanese Rocket)

If talking politics is out, how am I going to find out who the Idiots are?

So many beers.....so little human blood volume.

Just because you aren't paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.

Yup, reminds me of my old Honda CBX, 1981 with fairing and bags. People used to walk by at rallies, then step back and count the pipes a second time.
