[QUOTE="torch, post: 1462060, member: 1295"] I have a helmet with bluetooth connectivity to music, phone and rider. Works with any bike. I have grip heaters that can be applied to the bars under any grips. I come with built-in adaptive cruise control but added a throttle lock to ease the tension on the actuator mechanism on long rides. Works well. Why do I need BMW's bells and whistles again? I'm not a brand-specific kind of guy, but Yamaha (and Honda) consistently rank at or near the top of reliability surveys year after year. BMW -- not so much. Consumer Reports data suggests that the most likely category of failure is electronic components, so perhaps that explains it. Now, relying on subjective data like owner surveys is fraught with peril, and statistics can be twisted to skew results, but where there's smoke, there's fire... [/QUOTE]
