Those who know better are just looking out for those who don't !! One could say just trying to deter would be overlanders from wasting half their travel budget on overpriced useless crap or on bikes that are really not designed for anything but going for frothy coffees.

Well, gee, that's a rather patronizing attitude. To say that BMW bikes and a lot of TT gear is "overpriced useless crap" or "not really designed for anything for going for frothy coffees" is simply ludicrous. You really consider that helpful to anyone?
Sure, a lot of people go overboard on TT stuff, or indeed bike prep in general, but if you want to help other bikers, give detailed comments about what does and doesn't work (like the recent report on the BMW 650 not faring well in Africa), rather your exaggerated, useless ranting.
