So it looks like this concept bike is now set to enter full production. Can’t confirm if this it’s it’s final form, but we’re looking at an 1800cc Boxer stuffed into what looks like the bastard lovechild of a breakout & a triumph bobber. Interesting addition to the category, and also interesting that BMW are keen to jump back into the cruiser & bobber scene.

+1, it doesn’t WOW me, but I don’t hate it. I wasn’t keen on the triumph bobber when it first released but I love them now. Strong Competition = better quality Harley’s. More the merrier.

The big problem BMW boxers have, and Guzzi's is that due to the engine configuration it is really difficult to put forward controls on them.
Who wants a laid back style bike, when your feet are sitting centimetres below your arse?. Unless you are a dwarf.

You seem to be the only one that finds that a deal breaker

Plus one here, the barrels are where your legs sit on ANY cruiser. I saw a vid of the R18 being ridden, the rider looked like he was on a GP bike. Fail IMO
