Wow! No updates to this thread in almost a year and a half??? Well I guess I'll revive this thread with a picture of a Harley I just bought. Got out of the sport bike world and back into Harleys after about a 5 year hiatus. This is what Harley calls a Hard Candy paint job. Basically a heavy metal flake paint job.
To add to my 1st post and 2nd post on this thread, I just added another BMW, GS, this time a new 2016 BMW R1200 GS Adventure to my stables.
My stables now have a 1986 BMW R80 G/S Paris Dakar undergoing restoration, a 1990 BMW R100 GS in mint condition, a 2003 BMW R1150 GS Adventure (for my European and Alps tours) and now a new 2016 BMW R1200 GS Adventure. You can't beat this style of motorcycle for road and rider comfort with many thousand mile days all at the speed limit (makes for a longer riding day) and with a stock seat. All of them stock and original with a quiet exhaust.

Actually, my 2004 BMW R1150 GS Adventure shown in the 1st post was written off my an idiot car driver who was on his cell phone but then all drivers on cell phones are ass-holes in my books. Luckily I was stopped in traffic as the inbred hit me, so I can still claim an over 40 years accident-free driving record.
So I shipped my 2003 BMW R1150 GS Adventure that I also had, overseas to replace the 2004 that was written off...
