With this launch, it seems BMW has finally decided to look a little more like the competition.

BMW bikes always looked different, with this set of lights; which are seen on few other models too; they had tried to keep it a little "BMW" still

If someone buys a BMW....the front end will be the first thing that gets modded. After Market parts makers are gonna mint money with parts for this one.
Exactly... why do they want to ruin such a great bike with such dynamics in this manner The BMW nakeds like F800 featured these kinda assymetrical headlamps but weren't this ugly . Like Carlitos said if somebody buys that bike for its heavily loaded features he/she should get rid of that Ugliest Headlamp kit ever launched in a SBK

BMWs for some reason always stuck up with Asymmetrical design. Am just waiting for 1000 no of these bikes to be sold.

This bike is being touted as the next big thing and not just by BMW. I don't care much about its looks, going by other bikes which look butt ugly but are blindingly quick. I hope we get the bike here.

Bike looks awesome. The only thing I didn't like is the headlight.
