*grin* yet another "most powerful urban hooligan wheelie tool"?
I think that the BMW R1100R once got awarded that title by Perfomance Bike.

I have seen none of them yet. But the last link posted to the list shows a
concept that might very close to reality. Apart from the plastics design,
it actually matches the "greek" XRV1000 on Micha's page.
[Micha, are you gonna add the picture to it?]
I am pretty sure that I'll be able to have a seat on the new twin in
september at the INTERMOT in Munich. See you there!
Too bad I most probably won't be around in early august...
Arizona instead of Glarus...
