I think the 1290 R toasts this bike in looks and power.  Wouldn;t know about handling until i ride them both, which hopefully they will both be in FL SOON SOON!  :D

That's got to be the freakin' ugliest excuse for a motorcycle "headlight" I've ever seen. It looks like the loser in a serious bar room brawl without the blood.

Yeah, that exhaust needs to be painted flat black to make it go away.  The rest of the bike looks damn nice. 

I NEVER thought I'd think a BMW was badass.  I'm going to check the weather in Hell.
