Nice.
“Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

Don't know anything about modern BMW bikes. Looks like a twin. Does it ride well James?
It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

I like twins. My last was a humble GS500. Not quick, but very useable. Handled OK too.

I didn't know Rotax supplied engines for bikes, they are usually known for aviation engines.
Rotax have supplied many bikes with engines. BMW obviously and for many years. MZ and Armstrong spring to mind too. No doubt there are others.
I had a Rotax powered Armstrong MT500 ex army all terrain bike. It was a pig! Bastard awkward left kick start, would never idle properly and had useless brakes .

I'm Andrew.
Aprilia's RSV, RSVR,etc had Rotax V-twins.
There's also an 80's Matchless with a Rotax unit in it. My brother has one. That's a pig to start too!
Quite long wheelbase that Beemer has by the looks of it James. Looks fun.
Cheers
