The staff at Rider magazine gave the nod to the BMW K1600 GTL for their Motorcycle of the Year award (July 1012 issue). I thought I'd suggest that bike for the Cool Wall next -- do they know something we don't, or do we know something they don't?

Already done last year: viewtopic.php?f=61&t=40934 but that's not to say we can't give one of the other 2 Nortons a go. :D

Good idea, we haven't done that one yet. And (I like to rub this in to the other bike magazines) I (TMW) was the one who broke the news first about a 1600cc line-six engine to Rider (and they didn't believe me!) in early July 2010. :laughing:

Suzuki GSX1250FAST-SEA

I keep forgetting about this bike...you can almost pick a new one of these up for the same price as a used competitor...

Later.
Funny enough, I keep forgetting about that one myself as well... I'll put it in the running for next weeks Cool Wall bike. :D

Now up as promised. (It was next in line)

Hmmm, the MV Agusta F3 675 has been up fairly recently, but after a coupla more bikes on the cool wall, maybe you can give the Brutale 675 a try.

Personally I think you have no choice - you have to do the new Ninja 300R, right???!!!

Yes, we could have the Brutale 675 up next time, not a problem. Is it a favorite of yours? http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/coolwall/index.htm

No idea, is that in my model guides? (that's the only criteria I have set out, it must be in our TMW model guides)
