Robert,
	BMW is catering to a perceived market...and pretty successfully too
I'd say. If the product they are producing for this market does not meet
your expectations, or with your approval, then buy something else. It's just
that simple. No body is forcing you to keep your Beemers. I doubt that BMW
is going to design the perfect bike, just for Robert. So forget that! I
seriously doubt that ANY manufacturer is going to produce the PERFECT bike.
If they did, everyone would buy one and that would be the end of the
market...everyone would have the perfect bike, so why buy anything else from
that point on.
	It never fails to amaze me how people can buy a product and then
procede to tell the manufacturer what they SHOULD have produced. Life is
full of compromises.

A Ducati revs close to 14K and it is a V twin. Now maybe the boxer 
arrangement could not produce the same, I do not know.

I am neither. I have stated why I like the two BMWs I currently own. 
Just because there are better ways to do something, does not mean I 
like a "less" efficient way. I do think BMW needs to move into with the 
21st century.
