Re: Wishlist

Bruno,  I went to a very cool show about the new GS at Max BMW in 
Portsmouth NH yesterday.  They went into some detail about the new 
design and components.  It seems a sure bet that about 2006 model year 
we will see new RS, R, and S type models with the new motor.  No way 
would they waste the time on the present platform with the new motor, 
frame, and electrics on the production line for the new GS.  I'm 
scheduling a new bike buy for spring 2006.  RS of course!
