The writing has been on the wall for some time for BMW to replace its air-cooled boxer twin with an updated liquid-cooled version, and that hallmark day appears to be coming, as SoloMoto (additional photos on their website) has captured the next-generation German motor out testing in the wild (enhanced photo above) on the Spanish roads near Tarragona. This photo appears to confirm reports that BMW is testing a new R1200GS model, which will feature the liquid-cooled boxer twin, and has obvious differences from its air-cooled predecessor.
Big Dog Motorcycles is recalling a number of its 2004 model motorcycles, including the Chopper, Bulldog, Ridgeback, Mastiff, Boxer, and Pitbull models. These affected motorcycles have a possibly loose connection between the harness connector and the electronic harness controller, which affects over 1,800 individual motorcycles, and puts their owners at risk.
What started out as a concept, dreamt up by Pablo Gonzalez de Chaves and Carlos Beltran Carrión, the Demonstener D1200R has finally come to life. Producing a very limited quantity of 5 motorcycles, Demonstener has its D1200R up on eBay with a Buy-it Now price of €50,000.
