“ Bimmer could be a 675 triple to take on the Triumph Daytona, or simply an inline four. Another route could be the same move BMW pulled with the K100 back in 1985-it simply lopped off a cylinder. This would give us a lightweight 750cc missile to slay the GSX-R750 as well as kick the 600s around. We’d expect a true 150 HP at the back wheel.
To put that into perspective that’s roughly the same power as a 2004 R1, the weight of the current R6 and the musical noise of a Daytona 675.”

Is this for real or just a rumor? Kind of hard to tell...

They ain’t never gonna make this. 600cc bikes sell like shit in a lot of markets.
I wish 400cc bikes would make a comeback. The gap between a 600 and a 1,000 is just a bit too small these days, in both price and performance. A 400cc would be much more fun on the street and a handling weapon on a track.
