BMW has released a video showing the new six cylinder Concept6 bike that was revealed at the Milan Show last week.

There’s no sound of the engine on the video (just the inevitable dance music), and no action footage of the bike, but you get a half-decent impression of the size of the engine.

Read a full technical analysis with engine size comparisons in next week’s MCN.

ugly

I think the exhaust lacks fuctionality, the tail section looks like something off the FZR400RRSP, best left in the early 90's. really.

They should of reversed the direction of the cylinder head so the intake where the exhaust is and vice verser, this would make positioning of the turbo and intercooler more easier.

Then maybe ditched the brake leavers and put and brakes on the throttle grip. And made the braking fly by wire. So you twist forward to accerate and twist backwards to brake. With all the eletronics available i'm sure this would be doable.

Now that would be a concept bike.

200kw at the wheels, fly by wire throttle/brakes and 140kg wet.

i'd buy one, well actually i'd have to wait for someone to buy it, crash it and then i could buy it.
