This engine seems pretty reliable and durable and will last a long time. The K series is interesting, but it's a straight 4 or 3 cyl, not a boxer engine. It's more powerful than boxer, but seems BMW is "full" swing into Boxer. Of course K can be cheaper. THe 3 cylinder version is also interesting, it's more stable and well balanced cf 4 cylinder, surprising (info i understood from Internet-lah). The F650 is single, but would be good for KL traffic...however it's newer, so maybe still expensive (relatively).Sure Japs bikes are superior and cheaper, but you'd see them everyday.. i mean, it's just a matter of preference. I think i will enjoy relatively larger torque in bimmer bikes and cruising with lower rpms... Italian bike, well, not too keen at the momento...The r80gs is too too expensive in my opinion (i actually gave him offer he WOULD refuse! of course, he turned down). Remember normally you would need to add 50% on top since you don't know what would be surprises. I just hope i'll get lucky, one day...BTW, you seems passionate about bikes, do you own one now?</blockquote>
