My new BMW
I got a great deal on a 2007 R1200RT. Made the deal over the phone Tuesday, finally had time to pick it up today. Since, I'm visiting family this weekend and the internet isn't great, I'll post more next week. I'm very pleased to say the least. I'll just post the photo's for now.
The storefront doesn't look all that hot, but these guys were first rate all the way, one of those "don't judge a book by it's cover" Maiden Voyage

Nice, good luck man.
Is it really that flat out there? Ed |

Thanks
It's even flatter than that. In some places you can ride for hundreds of miles with nearly no elevation change.

Yeah, same bikes as the CHP. Very nice and tested bike. Nothing beats those for comfort. Obviously I ride a different kind of bike, but I've often wondering if I may end up getting a touring or sport touring bike someday.

Sweet! Congrats.
I love the tape holding the sign letters on the wall.
