Zitat von andygriff im Beitrag #133 Not much in the way of information about the bikes was on display. The bizarre thing about the models, who were on pretty much all of the stands, is that there was a constant stream of teenage boys wandering up to have their picture taken with them. Odd fact #2, the price of entry to the show was 20€, but free for women on Friday. You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape |

Another video from the EICMA show talking about all the new BMWs. The R1250RS gets a brief mention and cornering lights confirmed around the 8 minutes 30 second mark: https://youtu.be/T7AVV3lhjg8

Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #135Zitat von andygriff im Beitrag #133 Nope, deadly serious. It is stupid, misogynist and belongs in a bygone era where 'men' do tings and 'women' are onranents - and as stated elsewhere also alienates 50% of potential customers. Seriously, in a massive company like BMW did no-one challenge this - or are there no women on the board ? Rant over

Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #145Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #143 I see your point about the DRL,or rather the lack of it on US models. I'm just a yob who just happens to ride a BMW |

Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #147Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #145Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #143 and there will not be a central DRL on the UK bike as the DRLs, if you pay the extra for them, are incorporated into the main lights |

Zitat von wessie im Beitrag #148Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #147Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #145Zitat von Bravo im Beitrag #143 I would really miss that, the central DRL is very visible and also a tell tale view, when seeing it coming in the other direction. It will either be an XR or an RS, and I like seeing other RS'es when riding! DSC05887_1.jpg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) |
