Well after 13 years and three Buells ('98 3ST, '03 XB9S and '06 XB12X) I've moved on, simply because there are no more Buells to be had. Harley-Davidson has absolutely nothing in their current product line and corporate thinking that interests me... This left one obvious choice for me: BMW '11 R1200GS  I'm smitten! | ||

Beautiful bike - good luck with it! | ||

Very nice - are you sure you want to take that out and get it dirty? | ||

I wish I was secure enough to wear suspenders with my jeans - boy that looks comfy. . | ||
| Freyke |
I hear you onf the suspenders.... Must be a German thing! Ha! | ||

Shouldn't he be wearing lederhosen? Ahhh, buy a BMW, drink beer from 2 liter steins and listen to oompah bands. It don't get any better than that. Jaimec to flame me in 4. . .3. . .2. . | ||

<ahem>......s'up with that bent side stand? I'll see your suspender comment and raise you with a "can't wait to wear suspenders AND velcro New Balance tennies" (Message edited by 7873jake on October 14, 2010) | ||

what!? You didnt wait for the new 800 Tiger or S-10 super Tenere? GS12 is a fine choice...and actually available. Good luck. j | ||

Apples and oranges - what is your impressions of the GS vs the Uly? Smoother? Comfy? Do you hear a girl with a German accent saying "faster"? | ||

Looks like the bike's about to tip, someone fix that sidestand! Yeah, I may go that route someday when I have a pocketful of cash, but with our current administration's economy all I have is "change" (well that's what he promised!)  Have fun & ride sicheren! | ||

It's an optical illusion... I just looks like it's going to flop! | ||

Now I know where the guy who designed the S2's sidestand ended up. Have fun with it, handsome bike. (Message edited by SteveFord on October 17, 2010) | ||

That's a really good looking bike and I'll be eager to hear how you like it. | ||

Anytime I think of getting a new "latest and greatest" I just figure a good cleaning would make my ULY seem new and then I just lay down and forgetaboutit since that would be too darned much work. | ||

110 miles .... So far so good.... Getting my muscle memory reprogrammed for the German sense of ergonomics ...particulary the directionals has been an interesting memory battle.... It's a stupid little thing, but I suppose I'll get used to it.... The ride is nothing short of phenomenal due to the ESA.... More as I adjust... ....Developing... |
