I am not a BMW aficionado, but I cannot recall a sub 650cc bike in the past 20-30 years of BMWs model line-up. Even the X-Country, X-Challenge and X-Moto thumpers were in the 650cc range- rather large for their respective practical applications in my opinion.<\/p>\n<p>With every other OEM popping out a 300cc platform in the past couple of years, it&#8217;s about time BMW laid down some meat for the feast that is the emerging trend in motorcycle markets worldwide.<br \/>\nEven Triumph is rumored to be working on a \u00a0smaller displacement reactor for their future product pipeline.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, a BMW that I might be able to afford!
