I get it completely. having ridden that r9t I think the new boxer twins are the perfect bike engine. The old ones were so shite too...
seriously, anybody who aint tried one should. BMW have really got their shit together now; if they are putting them new lumps in the GS range I'd be amazed anyone would consider similar priced adventure bikes from other manufacturers.
As for the BMW wanker thing, Ive got the HD wanker t shirt. I dont give a fuck. On the right day that old 1340 evolution engine and fatboy riding position at 45 mph around the forest roads is just the best feeling. Same as fast sticky black tarmacked welsh mountain roads flat stick on the fazer are. I'll never run with the Harley good old boys anymore than I would with Squids. I love the fattie for my own reasons, same as I do the fazer and the cb. If that bimmer had you grinning for the whole ride, that counts for everything imho.
