Anyone think that they may come out with a K1200S (esque) sport touring bike? I think BMW will need to come up with direct competition to the FJR>

Comments?

That is just so wrong in so many different ways... As someone said in another thread in reference to the f650CS..

I think it will need some better bags to do tour duty. A bike like this might be better served with a soft or semi-soft bag that mounts above the pillion and tail section - like Venture stuff.

From what I read on the BMW NA site, those bags are expandable.

Neato.
