Nice looking bike Scott.
You vill be getting a call from the Fatherland. You are in deep sh#@ now.
A lot of things. For starters, nothing in the offing from Honda. And then, riding several thousand miles in the company (er, in the dust!) of blueSTormer and his K1600GT I really started to like the performance, the attention to detail, the integration of everything, and the look of his bike. Bob offered me the keys to his GT (he didn't have to ask me twice) and after a blast on some of my favorite local roads, I was impressed by everything but the weight. I'm 140 pounds after a big dinner and soaking wet (I'm Bones for a reason) and shedding bike weight has been on my list for years. In 2008 I bought a Versys for a lighter mount.What swayed you to BMW ?
The RTs look nice, not sure what maintenance will be like.
With so many folks going to other brands....I think I'll just stick with what I got...
Here is a breakdown of maintenance so far:
600 mile break in: just under $200.00
6,000 mile valve check and oil change: approximately $200.00
12,000 mile Service 2: $357.00 (New plugs, oil and filter, final drive, Valve check, new brake fluid, and new Air filter)
Holy Crap... who are you and what have you done with Scott!
When I had my BMW I ordered parts from Rusty at Max's even though he was 900 miles further than the closest dealer at the time. A pleasure to deal with.......
Got it from Max in South Windsor, CT which, curiously, is closer to me than the nearest Honda dealer. I haven't been let in on the secret handshake yet...show me at Moonshine?
Keep your Hondas in case you have trouble with the BMW RT . I'm glad I kept my Hondas.
