Default BMW, too much want

I really quite like this, don't think I could live with it because I'm wanting something more upright from them but this is badass:


Their New HP4 apparently.

Any thoughts?

not a lot impresses me when it comes to the latest sportsbikes, but this thing is from another world. So impressed with it.

only time you see these out on the streets is when they are ridden by people with more money that sense. or on the back of a pickup lorry coz they have been crashed. they are bonkers and the only time you will ever get to use its potential is on a track.

and I'm guessing at most UK tracks it would still be too much (thinking cadwell, croft, brands indy = all the small tracks). Would be amazing to ride though
