Seen the new BMW triple? Fifteen-hundred cc's, sports a big turbo, and it produces 228 HP and 236 ft./lb/ torque! You'd expect it to be in a ZX-14 crushing uber-sports bike, right, Certainly not a touring bike!
Well, no, it's in a hybrid car! Yes, that's right, a $100,000 hybrid car. Not a 'take-no-prisoners' two-wheeled transporter inching closer to turn-key warp-factor seven mode. A hybrid! The 'tree-huggers' won! Or, so it seems.

See for yourself! Now, who's gonna slide this powerplant into a two-wheeled chassis?
