As would I. I bet it would give the GS a run for it's money, with the way I hear triples make power and it's lighter weight. Sexy too :thumb:
Apperently , at race tuning , the 125cc nsr will hit 130 mph 47 horses , u can just get a 180cc kit , and safely have 45
What's w/ BMW? can't they make a Normal looking bike....

Maybe they're trying to compete with the Yamaha VMax for oddness

didn't you hear ? since buell is dead, BMW is vying for that "ugly as hell, wtf were we thinking must-a-been-drunk" trophy to go with the "we're snobby enough not to answer what that button is for" award.
The only thing pretty on that thing is the SSSA.
The BMW would look so much better if it wasn't a boxer engine. That's one of the odd things about it, two head poking out of the frame.
I don't mind the girder front end and the wave rotors. The lights suck though, as do the pipes. Don't like either.
The Vento Cafe is about 50lbs too heavy. It should weight in at 300lbs or less. A SSSA would be pretty sweet, but too expensive. The gap between the valve cover and the frame looks kinda awkward.
Other than that, looks awesome.
