It does not appeal to me at all.

Sorry, my bad, it should be hill, not rear
I can already see the aftermarket exhaust companies salivating about their new potential customers.
Hill start? With a bike that heavy, I'd definitely want that. My Ford Fiesta has that, and I like it.
I wonder if it will have more appeal than the R1200C. Who knows, James Bond might ride one, like he did the R1200C...
The word that comes to mind is ; strange, individual parts are mostly nice but i'm missing the harmony bit where it fits in with each other.
Only when you see it next to a Harley the front and tail section starts to compare very closely, it looks as if the harley part of the team flew over with some parts and they mounted them to the frame, stood back and concluded: "that looks better now" the smoaks has a ride on it and predictably has a drooling description of the 90 hp hybrid;

Even the original bmw clips are done with young architect types, also strange and aimless.
This bike could have been done better, seems to ride ok but so do a lot of bikes
Regardless of it's style, I've always been attracted to the traditional BMW colors of black with the white stripes.. I have heard them called "coach stripes" by BMW Illuminati.
I think that's what attracted me to the bike I rode for several years before I bought my CB.
