Re: New Toy

I'm not all that amazed. I think it's a function of all of us sharing the same adventure gene in our genetic code. We surround ourselves with similar items so we can get out there a little farther...

Re: New Toy

Re: New Toy

I was going to part it out but a guy I know talked me out of it. He says he can e-bay it for me. I'm going to let him do it. He does a lot of e-bay stuff and knows a lot about BMW bikes. He also...

Re: New Toy

If anyone wants or needs to kill some more time staring at a computer monitor you can head over to AdvRider.com and check out the build thread on my new toy. I've been busy getting her ready to hit...

Re: New Toy

I put Continental TKC80's on the bike. Big dual sport knobbies. They are rated to a max of 99mph but seemed to do fine this morning at 110mph on the freeway.

Break in procedure in the manual...

Re: New Toy

This is an updated photo of my new toy. I had the shop swap out the tires and I've removed the rear seat.

Re: New Toy

Ramsey

Thanks for that link. That is the best side by side comparison I've seen. There are things about the new wethead that really do appeal to me but after watching the video I'm glad I got...

Re: New Toy

Love the look of the air scoop into the oil radiator on those RT's. That is a sweet color too. As a GS junkie I think your RT would look better with a few bug guts splattered on the front...

Re: New Toy

Thanks. I test rode one yesterday and was amazed at the improvements BMW has made in the 10 years since they made my current ride. 29% increase in horsepower and a 23% increase in torque. The...

New Toy
