I'm sure that will still happen. There are a lot of GS diehards that will buy virtually anything new with a roundel on it. Given the success of the S1000RR, and that of the Multi, I really expected BMW to get on the horsepower bandwagon with this bike. The only thing I'm really impressed with are the Brembo monobloc's, which unfortunately are probably overkill for 125bhp.

bet you make a mean pie graph too.
i too am underwhelmed and borderline depressed, as i was flirting with the idea of a GS and was hoping that most of the wanna-bees would rapidly dump and deflate the current models in favor of the latest flavor.
hopefully the ignorant will still jump on it. after all, they bought the hum-vee didn't they?
