Re: Bear in the Air

I rode back from upstate SC last weekend (on my new to me 06 R1200GS, which is totally awesome) all on the parkway and backroads, and didn't see a single revenuer. Good luck I guess.

Re: 1 st Sunday ride May 2 nd

Thanks Mike, that is a nice bike, but a bit too much for me (adventure height). But, I have found one ... a 2006 GS, low miles (less than 7000), luggage (sides and top case), no issues, for under $10K. I do have to drive a bit to get it. Hopefully will pick it up next week. I put a deposit on it tod...

Re: 1 st Sunday ride May 2 nd

I love the F800GS, but they are a bit too tall for me. R1200GS is what I am looking for now. 05, 06, or 07.

Re: 1 st Sunday ride May 2 nd

Anton, I had that same thought ... but it is too late. At least I did put almost 2K on it since March.

Please keep your eyes open for a late model GS with low miles.

Re: 1 st Sunday ride May 2 nd

It was a slow agonizing ride home ... I will know Thursday if it is going to be salvaged or repaired. Bad time of year to be without a bike.

Update ... bike dead. Now shopping for a GS, after the insurance is settled.

Re: 1 st Sunday ride May 2 nd

I really wanted to go, but Friday my bike got flattened by a huge dump truck. The truck backed up into my bike (and almost over me). I survivied, but my bike is down for a while. Much thanks to Richard, another BMW rider, for his support.

Re: Morton's Oktoberfest 2009

I am seriously tempted ... I wanted to make this past weekend, but work got in the way. I will let you know later in the week if I can join you. I would love to take advantage of the suspension seminar ... and a good excuse to wear my lederhosen. Hey Mike, I think my brother-in-law and I followed yo...

Yes, I will send him a note right now. I am also dissapointed, but I just can't do it this time. I am going to the RA ... for sure.

Done ...

Re: Blue Grass Camp Night 2009

I am registered, but it is looking like a family obligation is going to pre-empt my attending. Darn, first time and I was looking forward to it.

Re: BRB stickers

Reflective stock for sure. Light blue or green for the center mountain/road would be nice.
