If BMW uses this as inspiration I would buy two
Maybe an electric powered GS?
I won't buy a new BMW, until 1) It is air-cooled - yeah, I know, emissions level are harder to attain - I don't care ... WORK ON IT! 2) I can maintain it myself and fix it with the on-board tool kit, 3) it doesn't have so much bodywork on it that it looks like a car, better yet, how 'bout no bodywork,4) it's shaft-driven, 5) and this is a big one ... it weighs less than 460 pounds wet, and 6) the biggest one ... it costs $6,000, or so.
Guess I'm stuck with my /5. Too bad I can't buy a new one, I'd like to.
I mean seriously, if Royal Enfield can continue to new sell motorcycles based on an upgraded, old design (EFI, electronic ignition, electric start) why not BMW?

the biggest one ... it costs $6,000, or so.
a regular old airhead styled bike with fuel injection, dual front brakes and 800-1000cc.
Actually, this come pretty close to what you want,
also, i am willing to be that BMW sells way more bikes than RE.
For what it's worth...
I think BMW has lost it's way. There is nothing distinctively "BMW" to make them instantly recognizable from UJMs. What happened to that bare-bones, "form follows function" Teutonic mindset that made the marque what it was? Too many industrial design school grads* with CAD surfacing-programs, and not enough nuts & bolts engineers, and managers that ride their own products and listen to their customers. Hr. de Waal being a notable exception.
