In Motorcycle News, UK weekly bike newspaper, they announced that BMW will be fitting a detune HP2 Sport engine DOHC engine to the GS. Only minor cosmetic tweaks.
But 22 bhp power boost.
They may drop the R1200S and HP2 Megamoto which was limited run. However, a lower spec Megamoto may be moved into mass production.
So DOHC...revving to 8750rpm rather than current GS peak at 7k. Should be fun.
I've an 1150 GSA: by 2010 I may think of trading to a newer bike (okay probably not, I'm going for the shabby chic look and I've spent lots getting this bike just right for what I do), but 22bhp would be tempting, if I thought I'd use it.
So what tempts you to trade in?
Or what would it take for you to trade up?
For me, a long distance HP2...I'll be interested in the weight figures.
