"with a target of 190 crankshaft horsepower"

Good grief, well they're not screwing on power

Appearance-wise it does very little to separate itself from the sport bike pack but it sure does separate itself from the rest of the BMW lineup. There's nothing about it that suggests BMW -- it does look nice though.

Sorry, but it doesn't. Why does BMW charge more for bikes sold in the US? I've yet to hear an explanation. Because they can? Revenge for WWII? Maybe it's reverse dumping. We are subsidizing the euro riders. Why not? We seem to subsidize about every other country in the world.

Maybe I'm being stupid here but.. um... tariffs?

Good guess, but Japanese bikes face the same tariffs.

Must be zeh monacle subsidies fur all zose German engineers zen ;-)
