I was agreeing that the 06/07 ZX10R looks better than this bike.

How so? The BMW's probably provides more info, and the numerals are larger and easier to read.

You are right about the read out. Add in that the speedo isn't in the way of the tach, there is a big ol' shift light and the panel to the right is the perfect mounting place for a lap timer. ZX-10 =

I like it.
If the headlights have purpose, one shape optinmized for low beam and the other specifically designed for optimal high beam then I approve. I expect the price point to be in the mid teens, about 15K.

The K bikes had "DD" grills in the lower fairings, that were designed to look like the grills on BMW cars, and since the GS series pioneered the ugly fucking headlight configuration (TM), it's no surprise they used it on the RR. BMW marketing execs will tell you that's it just one more example of BMW's "Form follows function" philosophy, but it's real function is to help BMW riders "stand out from the crowd", which itself is another long time BMW marketing point. Mission accomplished... JC

 Unless your lap timer is triggered by a beacon on the track it doesn't count. |
