No, it is the stock setup. Someone really ought to put an end
to the confusion regarding BMW's chain drive boxers. Didn't
someone post the FAQ on this some time ago? In essence, it
describes the problem BMW is having with their decision to
settle down to a shaft drive as a standard. They vacilate
and persist in reintroducing the chain drive in various
models. (R/C) Gosh. Well, on with the crusade!
