    Do I see an 1100G ?

    The R18 ever come back?
    The R18 was an employee at BMW....the GS was an 850G owned by a buddy's wife.

      I have to agree with that. I still have the 03 B12s I bought in 04 with a thousand miles on it. It only has two glaring faults. 1, it's 100 lbs too heavy and, 2. it's top heavy as Hell.

        I agree Trevor. I had a 2002 model for 8 years and it was bulletproof and a blast to ride...

        13 Yamaha WR450 with FMF pipe, Baja Designs street legal kit
        78 GS750E finely tuned with:

        78 KZ1000 in pieces with:
        Rust, new ignition, burnt valves and CLEAN carbs!

        History book:
        02 GSF1200S Bandit (it was awesome)
        12 Aprilia Shiver 750

                Oh, yah, the ST1100.
                Um, wait ST1100, I think, can see part of engine sticking out each side.
                Maybe ST1100 is what you have stored on other side of country.

                Quess Ill just need to ask: What is the red-burgandy bike that partly see in back of garage....?

                              Re last week's meeting:

                              That H2 Mach IV (Kaw 750) is a MAN'S bike. It could use a few 'safety' meetings!

                              I like those three teen boys hovering in the distance. Remember when we were them?
                              1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red

                              2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.
