I really like BMW at the moment, i think most of their bike and car range is looking brilliant and they are very very kool. Non of them look to be designed for women do they.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE <div class='quotemain'>140bhp, 195kg (fully-fuelled) Sportboxer is leading BMW’s assault
on an all out, no compromises sports machine.

This weekend it will be competing in one of the world’s toughest
endurance races, the Le Mans 24-hour. On track the Sport Boxer will be
up against Yamaha R1s, Suzuki GSX-R1000s and Honda Fireblades; no
small feat for an air-cooled, twin-cylinder giving away the best part of
50bhp.

The final production version of the Sport Boxer will be officially unveiled
at the Paris Motorcycle Show in September, it is predicted the bike will
cost £12,000 when it hits the showrooms in 2008
 
Give it nicer headlights and their 990 Inline 3, and yes...I would hit it so badly.

sending it down the road will be expensive when the engine casing is getting ground to a pulp on the tarmac at 140mph

the fairing is a bit radical but I bet it looks quite good in it's racing form i.e. without the headlights etc
 
Isn't the 24h Le Mans race on this weekend? If so Eurosport usually show it so you could see it race.
