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/
Rider looks a bit stretched.
The actual production bike will look a little different than the concept and I suspect the ergos will be more relaxed.
Needs a windscreen, helibars, highway pegs, better seat, passenger backrest, cargo rack, trailer hitch, center stand, fork brace..........sounds familiar
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?Originally Posted by GONRDN

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

If the rendering is accurate , I'm not a fan.
The 1600 Beemer was on my list of potentials when I was in the bike shopping mode. I just was never warmed over by the looks. That , my love of the Flat 6 engine, and the deals the F6B were going for, sealed that decision.

Goldwing platform..... nuff said!
2019 Honda Goldwing Tour DCT / CSC trike
I love the initial concept bike, but obviously some of the elements that made it so interesting aren't going to see it through to production. The recent image does nothing for me at all; a big disappointment. Somehow they've managed to keep the goofy "egg" shape of the K1600 and lost all the cool factor.... The 'B is still the one!
