I quite like it!

I agree 3B. Definitely better than the red and the ?Motorsport colours with the wrong colours?. #wrongRAL

I like the silver. Should I read this as it'll be available for the Sport in Red or Silver and no change for the M-Sport?

Bmw are also bringing out ltd edition Wsbk replica bikes later on in the year, that's come from a very reliable source ��

That "stock" dyno run graph doesn't look anything the others I've seen. I wonder if the US spec bikes are mapped differently.

The one in particular I mean is the 44 teeth dyno run.

Interesting video

That video has me baffled, and ties in with Tim's comment above. The guy in the video is selling his 2020 bike because "below 8k there is nothing, nothing, nothing and then takes off like a rocket ship" All of the comparison dynos I've seen show the Gen 4 with more torque below 8K than both the Gen 3 and the Duke V4. Have the US bikes had the maps changed?

Is it possible bikes could get the shift cam stuck in the high RPM mode and not know?

 

[Tim @ Lind]

I don't think so as they run cam sensors as well as a shift cam adjustment sensor. So I think you'd be playing connect four with warning lights if anything like that happened.

What a whinger....

I?d be happy to have mine, and sort out the niggles when you get it.

Still waiting, September now.

US bikes apparently have restricted power low down in the lower gears due to EPA regulations
