Mine uses a boxer engine to achieve the smoothness and eliminate vibration. Other boxer engines are in things like Porsche and Subaru models.

I've heard of boxer engines before but I didn't know they were used in bikes

It's a BMW thing. I want to say they've done it since the earliest days of BMW, but I'm not 100% sure. I'm like 80% certain that their first production bike had a boxer engine and was shaft driven. They have done some non-boxer and chain driven bikes since, but those are the odd ones out.
