Possible ST replacement?
« on: November 12, 2013, 03:58:54 PM »

Makes you wonder how many more evolutions that boxer motor is good for.  It now produces  around 125 hp complete with water cooling.  Also has all the techno goodies, including BMW's semi active suspension.

For some reason I'm not all that fussed on the looks.  The headlight and bulbous front fairing look out of proportion with the rest of the bike.  All the same I guess for some it's still a potential replacement for the ST.

Dunno about the Beemer .. but this could attract me for a weekend cruise..  F6C naked 1800cc flat 6 cruiser.... doesn't look anywhere near as ugly as the F6B derivative of the goldwing.
