I guess they learned there lessons about CHAINS!!!!

Nice looking bike though!
BMW likes chains …

Camshaft drive
As in the S85, the inlet camshafts of the S65 are driven by chain drive and the exhaust camshafts are driven by a gearwheel drive. This means that the inlet and exhaust camshafts always have an opposite direction of rotation. In contrast to the S85, which works with two single-roller
chains between the crankshaft and the inlet crankshafts, in the S65, two double-roller chains are installed. This is because of the higher chain drive load in the V8 S65.
