kgfire said:I am enjoying the bike. I am enjoying the comfort of reliability. I am enjoying riding something different than the standard BMW or Harley. I am enjoying paying less than the previously mentioned bikes. And, I really enjoy pointing out the achievement of Nick Sanders......unlike the two Hollywood pu@#ys who did the "Long Way Around" with BMWs and a support team, Nick did it with only a Super Tenere........
If the bike is "too heavy", then leave your purse at home.
Um ...it's actually a satchel. MAKE-UP! How am I to work under these conditions! Would someone puh-leese change the tire on my bike and fer chrissake get me a latte!
Oh dear, I'd love to get your latte, but I dare not risk spilling on my whale foreskin riding suit.
Agreed on the "who cares." I'm betting that the editors will pick the MultiStrada for twisty roads, the Beemer for the multi use and long distance mount, and the Tiger for dirt. They don't have to live with the bikes they write about.
