The BMW motorcycle group is doing quiet well, in fact I know of some very good dealers that can not keep up with both GS and RT sales.
Some intresting financial news here,

As in the previous year, the R1200 GS was again the best-selling BMW motorcycle. This long-distance enduro was purchased in 2005 by 25,705 customers, 35.5% more than in the previous year. The R1200 GS is therefore one of the bestselling motorcycles in the 500 cc plus class and, at the same time, the most successful motorcycle of the BMW Group to date. This was the highest volume of any of the BMW motorcycle models to be sold in a single year.
Next on the sales volume list for 2005 came the newly introduced R1200 RT touring bike, with 14,538 units sold and the F 650 GS (including the Dakar version), with 11,949 units sold.
The GS ADV and the K1200GT are pending along with some really trick stuff coming down the pipeline.
