I wasn't certain where this belongs; mods move it if there is a more suitable area.
Many may have learned that in addition to the R1300 line of GS bikes, BMW is building a retro R1200 G/S bike with styling options that bring to mind the R80 G/S. The local BMW dealer expects to get these bikes later this summer and have indicated a lot of customer interest.
When I lived in Ohio and Honda was still building motorcycles at the factory in Marysville, OH there were tours offered during the Honda Homecoming weekend. I had the opportunity to take one of these tours where the Goldwing motorcycle was built. I thought that it was very interesting to observe the process.
I found this YouTube video of the build process for the BMW R1200 G/S and thought it was also quite interesting.
