This bike seems to have a few extra toys added, so I've just priced out on the BMW site at just over £12k. So not a cheap entry bit of kit.
Spec highlights include, keyless ignition, 4 rider modes, cruise control, shift assist (shifter and Blipper), LED headlights/brake/indicators, heated grips. So it's fairly well loaded.
When I picked it up it had 6 miles on the clock, so not only a new model but a new bike.
The first thing I noticed riding it, is that it very very tall. So tall I struggled (and still do) to get it off the stand. On the flip side though, the high position is awesome for traffic as the visibility is excellent.
The dash is not TFT, though that is an option, however it is really well laid out and very easy to read at a glance.
I'm being nice to the motor and gearbox for the moment so I won't say too much about them until after the run in service. But I will say that the gearing and the inline twin are really well setup together and make for a very punchy mid range.
I'm not loving it, but I am appreciating it and how easy it makes the 50 mile commute. Oh, and the 50+ mpg on the clock is helping.
