    BMW Concept 6 cylinder bagger targets F6B

    Article concludes as follows: "BMW’s Concept 101 is obviously road-ready, so the million dollar question is when will BMW turn prototype into production? It would be the perfect motorcycle to pit against Honda’s Gold Wing F6B, the other performance bagger on the market."

    Take a look and let's hear what you think. http://www.motorcycle-usa.com/2015/0...gger-in-italy/

    The actual production bike will look a little different than the concept and I suspect the ergos will be more relaxed.

    That's exactly what I thought when I saw the pictures. In addition how are you going to replace those little saddle bags or are you going to travel with only one pair of undies?

    Looks like you'd be travelling alone...like I do. It's not a bad thing.

    IF it's true to BMW form, for most of us it will need a step ladder as well.

    Not a big fan of BMW quality and design since the wall came down. West Germans had a certain pride in manufacturing that seems to have faded away.
