I think the biggest problems with the R bike is the jugs sitting out there in the air stream and the weight of the Telelever and Paralever. It would take a total redesign and it would be to beat one manufacturer - Ducati.
BMW can go head to head with the all the Japanese bikes with one bike. And come out ahead IF they can make a bike that compares favorably in price and performance.
If they can get the price of the S1000RR in the $13,000 to $13,500 range I think they'll have a winner.
