    Steve in my opinion the best is the bb512i.The injection lets it pull from 1000 in 5th, it still sounds great and being the last of the type is the best developed and most reliable.I must admit the 6 exhausts on the 365bb look great though.

    Having never driven a 512, all I can tell you is that the 365 is lighter, 'rawer', sounds throatier, and should be faster. Torque in the original Boxer is positively stump-pulling, so that shouldn't be a problem. It is also definitely better-looking.

    Edited to say: Regardless, they're all fabulous!

    Having only driven a 512BBi I can say I was ashtonished by how quick it felt.................I checked the official figures.......all I can say is it felt much quicker than those figures.

    Having only driven a BB512i I can say I was astonished at how heavy the clutch was...!

    Still my favourite Boxer, though...
