Looking at the specs on MCN

It seems to me it's more of a competitor to the F800GS than the 12GS. I may be wrong but I can't see BMW losing much sleep about losing sales of the flagship GS. May even make them perk the power/cc up on a newer F8GS perhaps using the revised powerplant in the Husqvarna Nuda :D Maybe even marketing it as the F900GS Adventure and pricing it slightly more than the base R12GS to give buyers the quandry of going for the top smaller model or the base larger one :)
