Mark,
If you owned a BMW R69S you know well that it was the boxer engine we're
talking about - you know the engine where you better don't wear thick
boots and your feet stay nicely warm.
Anyway if anybody can see these cylinders lurking on each side out of the
bike, when he's jumping over cars - it would bust my buttons.
As far as I remember, I think they changed the bike, i.e. the bike you
see him getting on is not the one where he does the stunts with, e.g. the
sliding turns in that cave where he kills eventually Fatima with a pen.
I owned a 100R. It was great. Never sell the good stuff (is the guy with
the MGB listening?).
I too am looking forward to see what other people see in that movie.
Cheers,
Gus
