Awesome bike, right because I'm a beamer fan for my sins,
When BMW were designing the first prototype for their new K100, they built it around a small French car engine, which one?

wasn't quite flat Jonny it was 72degrees I passed my test in my granddads and it was a load of crap it ate through 2 camshafts before it reached 30,000 miles  |

True for the 104, BMW massively improved the engine for the K, and flattened it, 100K is not unusual for a K.
Anyway, was I supposed to say CORRECT!!!!
