Title: Seen the March '07 "Cycle World"?

If you've got it, take a look at page 39.
It's a picture of a stunt rider on the new F800: not S or ST, or even GS , just plain old F800.
Looks like a cross between a KTM and a Triumph Speed Triple.

I think this new line of F-bikes is gonna be VERY big for BMW  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I talked to the techs at the shop after they returned from training and they are very impressed with it!  I'm getting anxious to see one in person...  (https://bmwr65.org/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.smileyhut.com%2Fmisc_expressions%2Fdrool1.gif&hash=a0ecab01162c1ab9bba0461a2daf9a208462f8d4)

I just took a second look at the pic on p. 39 in the March CW rag....  You're right, Steve!  I believe BMW might just have a real live wire on its hands with this bike!  :o  Yikes!!!!!
