I quite like it although the colour is not really appropriate for BMW.
Power Cup colours would be better.

Weren't the colours meant to be a nod to the german cops?

Harry - you are correct.
Julian - colours not appropriate to BMW ? They are different and that is what BMW's are about to me. I think they look brill although have not seen them in the flesh.

The colour schemes look a bit awful/unimaginative to me - and snot green is for Kawasakis anyway 
I LOVE that pipe on the 12S though - much more purposeful.
Not sure about the hi-rise bars though, and the fairing lowers on the 800S - shame to cover up what is a nice-looking engine and slightly spoil the 800's lithe midriff (I much prefer the S's half-bodywork to the ST's full fairing). Glad to see some more aftermarket for these bikes even if, knowing AC Shitzner, they'll charge through the proverbial nose for it.

Got to say,.. I like them both.. but especially the 1200S,.. I even like the 'Moneky Phlegm Green' and Silver combo,.. reminds me of my old Vauxhall Chevette

I agree. but I think that the colours are more Kawasaki. I liked the Flower-Power boxerCup race bike.JoeC wrote:Julian - colours not appropriate to BMW ? They are different and that is what BMW's are about to me. I think they look brill although have not seen them in the flesh.
