Toys

[killian]

Hello Everybody! Off Topic of H3s but I'm looking for input..

I was out looking at new toys yesterday, specifically, the motorized, two wheel kind. I'm thinking of a sports- tourer motorcycle like the BMW R1200RT. I like the RT because of the longevity that BMW is famous for and I love the added luxuries that you usually don't find on other bikes: Heated grips, heated seats, electric cruise control, electric adjust windshield, ABS etc. Yeah, I know it's pretentious Euro trash compared to a Harley Road King Classic, but damn, what a sweet ride. I just don't know if I'm crazy about all the plastic on the redesigned front end. I had a ?99 RT and I think it was a better looking design. If there are any Beemer riders among us they'll most likely know what I mean.

I've looked at almost every type of bike out there from Agusta to Triumph, Ducati to Honda. I've looked at custom built bikes, kit bikes, choppers, cruisers and crotch rockets but I haven't found my one true love. I like the idea of being able to load up the bags for the weekend and hit the road. Maybe solo, maybe two up. I want something that will handle the twisties with grace and agility but also is comfortable to cruise on the long haul. Cost isn't really a factor. So...

What I'm asking of my fellow H3 owners, who obviously have exquisite taste in vehicles, is this:

If you could have any motorcycle out there what would it be... and why?
