NEC show looms large
With the International Motorcycle and Scooter show kicking off at Birmingham's NEC Arena in less than two weeks the line up is taking shape.
Most anticipated is the mystery world debut planned for the BMW stand, and few are more excited than BMW Motorrad UK's general manager Adrian Roderick, who has recently been enthusing over the launch.
"To have a world premier on the BMW Motorrad stand at the International Motorcycle and Scooter Show is going to be incredible," he explained to MCN.
"It will be exciting for press and public to see how BMW's new philosophy has been developed even further when the new model is unveiled at the show."

The new philosophy that Mr Roderick refers to is that which has brought us the likes of the K1200 S, K1200 R and HP2 Enduro, as well as the R1200 RT and ST boxer twins.
Away from the BMW stand Yamaha plans to unveil the new MotoGP inspired YZF-R6R and limited edition YZF-R1SP, while the FJR1300AS promises to be the world's first semi-automatic production motorcycle.
Ducati's new Monster S2R1000 will be given its UK launch as will Suzuki's GSR600, two additions to its GSX-R series and an updated Bandit 1200/S.
Not to be outdone at its home show, British success story Triumph will be launching three new models in Birmingham, including the Daytona 675 Triple, twin cylinder Scrambler and the evocatively named Rocket III Classic.
The 2005 Motorcycle and Scooter show will be running at Birmingham's NEC arena between Friday November 28th and Sunday November 6th.
