Marcel Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago For and engine...speaking mechanically ...built from the ground up by a snowmobile company specifically built for this bike...I have to say they did and amazing job with this powerplant....and this bike also beat the world endurance record by Guinness for a motorcycle....125 thousand miles in 125 days...think he's still riding it has we're speaking...this ain't no Harley...I think the only that failed on the motorcycle for the 125 thousand miles was the stator...but he was running multiple gps, laptops and a bunch of other shit... So for those who say American motorcycle are shit...I certainly don't see any other manufacturers doing this with a bike that was only born 2020...and Honda can suck it...lol.

Your bike´s segment? Expensive overweight touring cruiser? They made this: It's 6 cylinders, 1650cc, 160hp, and 175Nm torque, 115 (front) and 135mm (rear) suspension travel, 336kg wet. Your piece of shit is 1780cc, 122hp, 173Nm torque, 130(front) and 118mm (rear) (WTF??) suspension travel, and 361Kg dry. So heavier, way slower, less smooth and comfortable, and shittier handling. Quarter mile, since it matters to you: 10,9 for the BMW vs 12,7 for your barge. The BMW will be nicer to ride, smoother and faster, sounds nicer, and runs rings around your boat anchor. It's vastly superior on everything! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low, can't lean, slow and massive, so you and your friends can cruise at 120kmh for 5 ours before "sharing rooms" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
