Default Just bought my first street bike - although I have been riding over 25 years!

So, after riding dirt bikes and enduro's for way too long, I thought I would try something new!

This is what I sold:

What a great bike too - runs well, handles great and I even have a radio - great on gas too!

Anyone else have a BMW?

Default Nice brick!

I have an 89 RS SE. How do you like the "whine?"

Smooth bike though, I love mine. Oh and nice B5 in the background there.

Why do they call it the "Flying Brick"?
