Re: are you a BMW stunna?

Makes more sense for a stunt bike than a 600 or 1000cc race rep. Maybe this is the start of a trend towards smaller, lighter stunt bikes that can be used for more elaborate tricks. (instead of just a thousand different ways to do wheelies, stoppies and burnouts) Maybe eventually they will go to little 2 strokes with no seat that can be used to hop over obstacles of various difficulty levels. That would be so cool.

Re: are you a BMW stunna?

Do my eyes deceive me? did I really just see that...

Yes I think you can make more appropriate stunt bikes which the professionals may gravitate towards and would definetely make competition easier...but the am's are still going to learn on whatever is out after dark in your apartment complex.

I still think it would be neat if eventually they migrated to a bike that was designed to just turn in one direction and you sorta did a constant burnout around a dirt oval track or something.

I actually think that's pretty cool of Beemer, wonder if they'll actually make them? (yes, I read the article that they "plan" to)

The chatter on the BMW lists are they are going to release a naked street version first, hopefully followed by an adventure model.
