So who has read about this thing? Everything I've found makes the bike sound fantastic! Supposedly puts out the most power in the class, has a 5LB ABS systems compared to the competitions ABS (25LB). Comes with some seemingly quality parts and is supposed to be priced VERY closely with the majority of the Jap Litre bikes.......

The things that you guys have mentioned that you don't like they're saying are purposeful! I think the headlights being a-semetrical is kind of interesting and I don't really care about the side fairings because it looks good from either side. BMW has clearly never made their bikes to be eye catching but at least this one looks WAY better than all the other junk they've put out throughout the years. If it's priced as close to the Jap bikes as people rumor it will be, I'll be considering one for a Stock Wheel Base bike
You haven't seen my r1100rsl, that was a sweet looking machine. I'd wait a couple of years until they worked all the bugs out, seems most manufacturers push R&D to fast to get something out on the market. Plus I don't think German engineering is what it once was.
Not saying it on purpose lol. Last year on here I was saying I was going to buy it, and I was. I was hyped because I'm a big bimmer person. But I can't see myself riding a bike that has mismatched fairings. Have you see the green colored one? Looks like baby poo green. Believe the sticker on them is supposed to be around the 14k-16k range. The price wouldn't bother me, just the mismatched fairings

Not into the lights but they have done a very good job in prepping this bike for WSBK and with Corser helping with tech, it will be running up front very soon.. The race trim looks sick......
Where do you guys see mixed fairings?
