Is it just me...or when you first open the BMW>NET site, does "Our Moose" look (for a nanosecond) like he is wearing a white cowboy hat?
Very nice touch, doncha' think?

Actually NO, it is really nice here.
I am grounded however, waiting for a ride to go pick up my bike from one shop, so that I can then take it in for a steering damper replacement. So...I could be hallucinating.
I better go find a good book to read at the dealer's so I don't sign anything that has 2005 NEW BIKE on it while I'm sitting there.
Good idea,

In reply to:

You may be hard pressed in that respect Connie. I went into Daytona BMW yesterday (I have been intentionally staying away) and saw all three newbie�s. I really like all of them but the R1200RT is really what I would go with, if I were to sign anything on the dotted line. I am not a sport bike rider but, the KS is very sweet. The RS is good as well but , the RT is a miniature LT now with all the bells and whistles of it's big brother! I keep telling myself NFW! NFW! NFW!
I do get to ride one thru the Alps this summer tho he he he

I just saw the three new ones in Scottsdale this AM, but am really in love with the red R1100S sitting on the floor there. Gotta go back to Phoenix next week, maybe I'll take a test ride.
0.9% financing and the first five payments. I could be in big trouble.

Woody & John,
I have to agree with both of you.
I'll tell you, they injected some *serious* vitamins in those new machines. LOTS of power.
I really think that cruise control on the RT will be a HOT seller.
I was very impressed with what they have done to the new rides.
Be *very* careful, you could own a new toy real soon.

I know Connie...this is frightening. I am really fightin the desire to get on this bike and take it for a test ride. It's gonna be hard enough to ride it in Europe on the trip. At least I know I won't be able to buy one there and ship it home. Finances just won't allow that.
