Check out this news item from Road Racing World
http://www.roadracingworld.com/news/article/?article=31772

I'm watching the BMW series of videos right now.  Its assume to show people that your bike has already been broken in on a dyno before it leaves the factory.  Each bike is ridden up to 60 miles through various tests to make sure not only the motor but everything is in good shape.

Thanks for the heads up!  

I wonder if it will ever make it to the Discovery Channel?

Here's a direct link to the on-line viewing...
