RE: The six-cylinder gang - redbirds_imp - 11-06-2016
BMW's six is quite compact compared to earlier in-line sixes, water cooled and has but one throttle body I think. Would be interesting to see BMW make a roadster version. It's all up weight in present form, full fairing and luggage, matches the ST1300 so a roadster could be made a bit lighter.
Concept from 2009.

Er, well, not the GL1000, GL1100 or GL1200, but somehow I think you knew that.
