At least they had enough smarts to figure out an air-cooled boxer engine wasn't going to cut it anymore.

I'd love to see a beemer w/ great financial backing compete. Glad they shitcanned the boxer setup, i felt bad for those guys in the boxercup, silly head sliders. If you're bike needs sliders on the heads its probably not the best setup for racing. Maybe we'll see Nate Kern rock one these things

..........and a road going version of the 1000cc I-4 sportbike as well.


Hmmm, I wonder if they'll have enough financial backing to snag a top tier rider.
