Apparently, Bilstein has been developing this for 5 years...

Thanks for sharing that Charlie.

I've used Bilstein OEM replacement units on my BMW cars and they worked OK. OTOH, OEM replacement compares poorly to the Ohlins or Wilbers units I've had on my previous 3 Motorcycles (Yamaha FJ1200 - Ohlins, BMW R100GS/PD - Ohlins, BMW R1100S - Wilbers).
