All this electronics makes me uneasy. What will these bikes be like after a few years of wear and tear? The costs of used bike parts are already astronomical in many cases. I already know people who refuse to buy any BMW later than an 1150 series because of the complex canbus issues.

I'd NEVER buy one after lease. Even the smallest sensor is a small fortune when a warning light pops on. Once my GT gets near the end of its warranty it will be on the market.

What? You don't like $600 'tuneups'??

The problem is they don't need tune-ups. They just run until they quit. "That'll be $1,200 for a new computer please."

BMW's don't break down, they only require periodic maintenance.......The occasional $1200 dollar service ensures continued safe and efficient operation
