Maybe if they do indeed stiffen the rear triangle, the chainstays and
seatstays could be minimized a bit, lending a more elegant look to it.
Not sure how that would play against the multi-tube front, but those,
like wise could be ever so smaller. Sorry, GP, just thinking out

I own and ride several BMW motorcycles. My fave is an '04 GS Adv,
which I rode from CT to OR last summer ('10). The bicycle/mc ride
ratio varies, but it's all good. For the BMW GS series there is a
company (2x2 I think) that makes a mount to take a bicycle on a
motorcycle. best of all world's!
Just rode through Beartooth Pass for the 4th time. Nice!
FWIW, I've mentioned the the values that are stated @

the snow, and now the return of the wind. Pretty unusual for 4 months
