Wow that looks awesome, bet it goes like the proverbial!

[mossy1200]

Is nice but I cant help wanting a K1300s.

[willytheekid]

That "Dynamic Damping Control" sounds bloody amazing, and being BMW you just know it will work well...Z germans sure know how to make em :yes:

...dear santa :innocent:

Am I getting old? Does nothing for me anymore. So far outside my riding reality it is almost pointless. And F me if they don't all look the same.

Bugger I am getting old. Still I'd entertain a 3-5 year old blade or GSXR to convert into a naked ............................. must be some life left in me yet!

[CHOPPA]

Looks pretty good to me! If we actually get some allocated in NZ you will be seeing one at a track around November.....

Thats what the GSA is for

[Brett]

That is a fantastic looking machine.

[NinjaNanna]

yum, yum :drool:

[Gremlin]

Wot e sed.

My licence couldn't survive "normal" 1L bikes... I may as well visit the cop shop and pre-emptively hand my licence in, if I got one... My GSA actually costs more anyway...

Price of the HP4 hasn't been announced AFAIK but it will be spectacular I suspect. Surely got to be way more than the GS?

Looks like RRP for a S1000RR is about $32k. Current price for a GSA is $35k, on a special rebate deal, as it's in the last year or so of production before the new one. Usual price is $39.5k. Factor in another $10k of accessories (Ok, so I might have a few), and half again for some upgrades shortly...

Suddenly the $44k K1600GT looks positively cheap, but it won't handle the rough stuff as well ;)

Ouch. More expensive than I thought. Still I doubt the package on the HP4 would cost less than 15K extra. Paniers and cigarette lighters not included.

Blasphemy! Take that back you sick fuck!

[carbonhed]

Apparently it's only going to be 1500UK Pounds more than the standard model :shit:

Yeah ok, they've got me interested... I'll wait to see what those faggots at Honda do with the new blade though... the last one was so disgustingly good enough that they've earnt that at least.

Heh, if Joseph hadn't bought the big one, and worked at a BMW dealership, I'd probably already have my deposit down. RIP dude :bye:

It was his birthday today too. I was in at BMW today and one of Joe's old workmates, Dan, from Suzuki days is running the bike show in there now.

Thinking like that indeed helps you survive and get old......

Only alternative is to die young.............:msn-wink:

[imdying]

Yeah. Dan's a good cunt, got plenty of time for him.

Way better "chap" than the last one who took Rides down the toilet.

[imdying]

It's ok, you can say cunt, I won't tell your mum (if you don't tell mine :laugh:).
