I was just on the roadracingworld.com website and found a tastey tidbit. The BMW R1200S that Nate Kern rode at the Sun Trust 500 in Florida last weekend had an overhead cam motor, not the cam/pushrod combo that we all enjoy. The motor was supplied by BMW. No word yet if this same motor will be used by Kern when he rides the upcomming World Endurance round at the 24 hr. in Lemans, France for BMW. I've attached the link to the page, mention of the engine is made at the bottom as a note. www.roadracingworld.com/news/article/?article=28728
