I'd wager the mini bike is just a rebadged Dahon
Mini-bike. Folds down and fits in the boot. 8-speed, Teflon-coated chain, probably cost around 450 once it's launched in August. Much nicer and well thought through. Particularly interesting when you consider the Mini is built by BMW.

I wonder how many bikes offer a similar specification for less money?
I'm not that impressed with the "colour scheme".
It would have better reflected the BMW motorsport image being painted in the Schnitzer works team livery (white with blue checkers ), although BMW and their potential bike owners would probably want to make sure people see that it's made of carbon fibre!
QFT.
I remember loads of old street-racing video games where the only function served by carbon fibre bodywork is to make your car look awful, with no performance benefit. Seems to be the same syndrome here.

I doubt it ... I'd say that the type of mug who would buy one of these is probably already an egotistical, aggressive and erratic pr*ck ....
"which will be available from all BMW dealerships in the UK starting July 2011"
Personally, I'm quite looking forward to several thousand £'s with forks on backwards.
