If I had gotten the Griso, I would have had buyers remorse and wanted this. But, I personally think they could have gone a bit more retro with it. This is more of a "modern reinterpretation".
It does have similarities but I like the look of the beemer more than the Griso. to bad they did not use the new water cooled engine on this BMW.

So this engine is a more mature design? That's good. New engines take some time for BMW to figure out. Some early S1000RRs somehow had large grenades substituted for the engines.
Since 1923, this model is considered the 90th anniversary model for the motor.
They've gone to liqiud cooling and a wet clutch for all the other R-models now.
It only has the S1000R's front forks and brakes.
