Been doing some reading and I was wondering if our boxer engines have these coatings or if the blocks are sleeved. I know these bikes are too new for people to be needing to do engine work but I was hoping someone may know anyways as I enjoy learning about this kind of stuff
Paul has the info right. Snowbum has more details here:

Began using these coatings for the 1981 models. As Snowbum says, the two products were trademarked by different companies but are essentially the same sort of product in terms of function.
I did read through that earlier and found it very informative. Just wasn’t sure if BMW switched away from it. Seems like they had issues with it in their v8s in their cars so I thought maybe Nikasil was a thing of the past at this point
