Sounds like a fun ride. But a "torque counter" instead of a tach?! NO

It's a concept, it will never see production. Concepts always have a lot of crap that don't make sense.

I have no doubt they could make a reasonably narrow six today. Just moving the clutch and stator off the sides would drastically reduce the width. And on the goofy gauges- you just never know. Look at some of the bizarre ones out now- like the new 650R with a fuel gauge bigger than the tach or speedo.

I rarely look at gauges, so it wouldn't bother me what the fuck they put there. A big speedo is nice for street riding though in case you need to brake for po po.

The bars also look high with a low windscreen.

I think it's the hottest beemer I've seen... Spec is around 60" wheelbase IIRC. Looks comfortable for us lanky folks. I want to see it with a rider onboard.
