Title: So I joined, then the new forum...
Post by: James L on September 23, 2016, 03:03:44 PM
So I joined right before the change to the new forum. I didn't post much.

I was riding a Suzuki C50T with a few addons. Now I'm back again with a new bike (new to me). A BMW R1200RT. It's almost loaded (missing automatic stability control and tire pressure monitoring)and has almost every accessory I can want.

What a difference.....I just need an airhawk pad cause I never want to stop. I flew to Denver to buy it and ride it home. It was that good of a deal.

I do need to sell th Suzuki though...ill never ride it now.

Welcome back from Montgomery.  I can see why you are loathe to get off the bike.

Welcome back from Helena. Nice ride.

You are close enough to ride with, if you do pleasure riding. Actually, most of the replies here are close enough....I have a touring bike.   ;D
