Have a look and a seat on an RS, seems half the size in real life

If I was to choose a value bike out of the used but current BMW bikes, I would look into a late R1200RS. They lose value quicker than a GS, I suppose have taller higher gear like an RT, and are proper comfy to sit on. I never rode one as I really value the GS and the 19 inch front wheel, but a RS is a bike to consider. Cheaper than the GS purely out of market reasons.

With the Enfield, getting two out of one isn’t bad then.

Did you need to tie them down, or were they producing downforce even standing still?

It’s a Honda. You need it to look horrible to go out into the wild!

Can’t help but think Royal Enfield or Triumph would have ended up with something looking a lot more like this plus a radiator one of the prettiest Hondas ever

If travelling proper big distances on tarmac only and not using the bike for commuting everyday, I would look into an RT. The fairing and longer gearbox …

If you can aford one, go for a ride on a GS, post 2015, and see how you like it. Then ride a Strom 650 and see if that’s also a fit for travelling. I think a Strom 650 would be my choice for a cheaper bike compared to mine, the modern ones appeal to me.

If you end up trading, kindly ask for an address so I can send them my commissions invoice.

This is me on a song

This is currently my favourite song to have pop up on my helmet while on the bike. On the very rare occasions I turned the music on in Morocco to fight a little tiredness this music started as I was stopping for a drink of water, and couldn’t help but do a little jig around the bike. Wasn’t aware I was being watched by a kid laughing so hard he almost fell of his donkey

It was, she used a mix of spices I brought from Morocco. It was delicious!

Plus I’m not a drunk fighter, I’m a lover

Legend! I wouldn’t make an effort to go out in that.

Adventure, that’s the word you want. Otherwise it’s just silly.

That never stopped anyone on here, it’s almost a requirement in fact

That sounds like a new category. And racist, that’s racist!

He was my second choice for MOTY, because nobody new has ever not annoyed me except him. Plus his bike choice, he deserves something positive in his life to offset that.

See other thread, I nominate @boboneleg Sorry Bob, I meant well but made a mess of your first nomination. Bob’s a great guy with a smile present on everything he writes so vote Bob.

You shut up, if you were to have a say you’d be mod. I hereby replace my Bob nomination by now nominating @busabeast

Pete, stop making this stuff while pre dinner drinks are being consumed and I’m on the phone’s small screen.

I retreat @boboneleg as my nomination. Sorry, Bob, I’ll wait for the next submission thread. I will not nominate anyone for TOTY, and my vote will not be revealed either, last year was enough
