Any uglier and you'd have to call it a Vara  :hat10
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

Ugly it may be,I bet you could put 100,000 miles on that at any speed you like and it'll still be going,oil changes when you feel like it and you'd be rolling around on the floor at the thought of needing an extended warranty like us BM boys have too,just what you want as your next bike Tim,just don't look at it  :thumbsup

Absolutely Chris, I had 2 Kwaks in the early Noughties, the ELR ZRX12 was a peach, here just outside Le Mans, this was the year I took 6 months off work and put 18K on that bike, ummm, dont think the missus would stand for it again, or the Bank Balance for that matter.

Not if you listen to my mechanic that services them, he doesn't like working on them, is getting more than expected electrical issues, thinks they start to get noisy over 50K kms and thinks they handle like a barge. That said, they are selling quite a few since they dropped the price locally by about 15%, local guys like the big brash image but don't want to spend on a BMW.
