Other Bikes » BMW's new 1800cc boxer engine news

Here is a short video with the official power specifications for the new engine and some commentary by the Long Way Home character. He compares it with similar H-D and Indian cruiser models:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av-0RGbpEy4

The 116 ft lb torque figure for a air-cooled engine is good.
The K1600 liquid cooled engine is 129 ft lb

pushrods instead of overheadcams.. to keep it narrow, and quieter running 1800cc interesting engine...

I must admit... I like the look of this bike... it harks back to the early pre-1940s era... If its not £20k +
and is comfortable to ride... i could be tempted..

Seems like a heavy old POS to me. Perhaps Harley riders will like it.
