What an increadable piece of engineering---that engine would fit into a talked about Z2 (triumph)? sports car nicely, at a reasonable young driver starter price, ---or are we still waiting for That new isetta to arrive? Wink

BMW fitted their K1100 motorcycle engine (horizontal dohc four) into several concept cars a few years ago, so they know it works.

From early reports, it does not look as if BMW have improved the quality of finish on their motorcycles, which are often rusting when they are uncrated!  Today's riders seem to regard this as normal . . .

Thanks for comment Mike--and what do the German Motorad fans say about the quality of their BMW  bikes---sales seem to be holding up well in the home market.Confused
