Don't wanna spoil it for the rest but there's not enough pain and the transition is not dark enough...... fellow potraying Him is like a piece of wood...... sad, could have been better. Wrong actor for the role man. Ultimate test, kid 5 seats to my right http://www.ukgser.com/forums/images/smilies/sleep.gif

 

But the CGI smoke is good though....... one of the best particle effect that I've ever seen :thumb:

tt bad.

 

very disappointed, infact, beside SW PI & II in 70s or 80s, never finish e rest, tot was too old for this type of show.

Hey dudes, news of the R12GSA from Advrider:

 

Copied this text from the German "Boxer-Forum":

 

*****

 

I was recently in ShangHai for the MotoGP and whilst there had the chance to have dinner with BMW's area manager for Asia... He's obviously German, a nice guy and as one of BMW's elite managers, very well informed when it comes to things like release dates etc... What he had to say regarding the 1200ADV as well as the HP2 was very interesting...

 

The 1200 HP2 is apparently the first in a planned series of HP series BMW bikes... Bascially what BMW are trying to do is create an M-Series for their bike range... expensive, exclusive and you guessed it High Performance... It seems we can look forward to other models getting the HP treatment in the future... Interestingly he mentioned the BMW don't really want to sell the HP2, and other future HP series bikes, at least not in large quantities anyway... they want it to be expensive, desirable and exclusive... to this end dealers are not allowed to have more than 1 HP version of any given model (only 1 right now) in stock at any given time and only select dealers are allowed to apply to sell HP series bikes... strange... but I guess it makes sense if you look at BMW's M series cars and the way they are marketed...

 

Secondly the R1200GS Adventure will be released in early 2006... Obviously Mr.BMW was reluctant to part with too many details, but he says he's received pictures of the 12ADV from BMW and he says he personally likes it a lot (big surprise)... It will have a similar lattice type frame to the 1200HP2 running through/into the body panels, a reworked more robust swing arm, a bloody huge +/-35 liter tank that does away with the clip on side panels of the 1200GS, a reworked engine of course, a re-worked rear rack/handle and interestingly the hard luggage will be aluminium and made by Touratech... Apparently BMW have realised that Touratech make shed loads of money doing aftermarket parts for BMW and it makes sense to get them to do OEM luggage for a BMW bike rather than compete with them...

 

Anyway, that's mostly the gist of what we discussed and since it was pretty much straight from the horses mouth I'd be surprised if it's too far from the truth...

Where, then, lies the answer?

In choice. Which shall it be: bankruptcy of purse or bankruptcy of life?

No, I think they are running out of design ideas. So have to bring back the old times. (retro) hehehe.

Sent Bertha to New Tech because both my front and rear tyre lost pressure very fast. Turns out, there's a small nail in my rear tyre, and the valve for front is faulty. What are the odds of both tyres having some problem at the same time????? Better than striking 4D, I'd say. :mad:

On 2nd thought, I ought to be thankful I managed to get back to SG from the Trans-MY ride without any incidence. :sweat:

 

Hey guys, they said that non-member can also join their weekend breakfast rides. So, maybe you guys want to consider joining.

 

BTW, that classic-looking bike....it's classic allright, but isn't that the 1150 swing-arm?
