Perfect philosophy and I can only concur, looking forward to the next evolution. A few minor suggestions (as if you don’t have a million you’re working on already). How about considering not having the ends of leavers break away but rather incorporate a spring mechanism on option 719 clutch and front brake lever ends (or standard 😊)? A replaceable delron or teflon sleeve around the engine crash cars as an option? Partner with Scala rider for a waterproof (and dust proof) BMW bluetooth headset with JBL speakers? An optional second screen similar to the Navigator but running Apple carplay or Android auto (Vibrations from any motorcycle kills phone camera modules). USB C power ports, a screen adjustable at speed and balance air movement in front of and behind the screen in an upward direction (as achievable by the addition of a spoiler but not as annoying), a wider stand base suitable for the terrain the bike is used on, a seventh overdrive gear purely for increased highway fuel economy. Getting to the R9T, I know the current 1200/1250 motor’s radiator represents a design challenge for a naked/scrambler/retro styled bike, but the gearbox and electronic system of the current GS is superior in every way, and having the GS’ suspension and ergonomics (for taller riders) which are excellent, in a version of that bike would be awesome!

Der Herr Dr. könnte mal einen Englisch Kurs machen 😂, seine Aussprache ist ja traumhaft.

[@PedroTF]

I like the honest guy: basically "I like Mongolia, wide open spaces, this is shit!"

[@Yannick10711]

Very charming people, but don´t let the Dr. speak English, it hurts 😂

[@georgeisaacs8096]
