Possibly big hwy cruisers like the TC are more likely sold in big highway countries. It would be interesting to compare stats for different countries and cultures.Interesting, though I don't know what incentives are over that side of the 'pond' (if I said that right)
Sort of makes sense the base model would sell the most, maybe more so with the offers from BMW. Then the Classic as it is the next least expensive model. Though darn, now many B models sold which I thought buyers might want. And TC...that just seems really a bad buying rate number there.
Being a boxer fan, it was my first ride, I have to say I am digging those R12 model layouts on that page link. Yes I know, it is not an R18...etc etc.
What they are though is using a cruiser frame with a nice engine. Though why they would not drop a R1250 engine in it is a mystery to me (thinking those photos showed NineT engines). Water assisted cooling is the way forward on any engine put in a bike now days I feel (exception allowing for the throw back look/purpose on the R18 one figures).
