When BMW decided to take on the Japanese in their own back yard, and give it to 'em "right in the chops" with the fabulous S1000RR superbike, did you think they were finished? The 600 class is next.

I wonder. BMW has categorically denied they were working on a 600cc bike. They've stated the development costs would be almost the same as for the 1000cc bike, but in order for the bike to sell, it would have to sell for thousands LESS.

This is the rumor that refuses to die, though.
