Don't want to rain on your parade, but I don't think you scooped anyone. I saw this bike a few weeks ago on another forum. (September 26, actually).

I love the way it looks, but I wouldn't buy one (unless I had a whole shed of other bikes). It's too much of a toy. The regular R1200R is less flashy but way more practical.

I missed this topic (Andrea pointed it out to me), but for the record...

- 2014 BMW R nineT - New for 2014
Posted on October 15th at 8am

- 2014 BMW Concept Ninety
Posted on June 8th at 9am

Which was as soon as BMW officially released the information to the media and before BMW even had them up on their sites. :D

Unless these are not the two bikes and I missed something? If so....

Haha Mike. Too funny.

Looks like you got me. Usually you post something in the forum when a new bike comes out - and I didn't see it. Looks like you are just too good at what you do. :mrgreen:
