At least BMW listened. We (I) wanted the black chrome exhaust, bigger front fender, less chrome, and more compliant rear on the Pure and Classic.
Personally, I am glad they are sticking with the platform. The R18 are works of art if you ask me.

I am actually very chuffed about the whole thing. That pure is super cool and the red B!!!! Oh my oh my. The wheels are very similar to the option 719 on the K bikes, the upside down fork is super sharp and the fact the pure now gets a better rear suspension is a plus. I think an already cool bike has got even cooler.
These bars seem higher than the previous model, huh? Someone mentioned they liked the “apes” on the new B, but I didn’t notice until looking at pics of the outgoing model.
Wonder if it’s an option or standard.
Would really have loved the black chrome on my B, but there’s nothing revealed today that has me sad about having the “old” version.
Glad they’re continuing to refine the line.
I’m so glad I have the R 18 Classic with the fat front!
The wheels are a big improvement on the previous alloy wheels IMHO.
Indeed

I thought the Model B bars looked a little higher than the stocks OEM handlebars:

BMW has now posted the 2025 Model B, as well as the other R18 Heritage Models:
They do. Also the fairing looks more streamlined and they put the minimalistic wind shield on that one.
I like it

Fully agree with you emgarciax. But I kept the front tire and changed both fenders (front and rear) for the B model. 
Very nicely done. Glad you kept the fat tire!
