ctraylor Posted September 25, 2009 Share #1 Posted September 25, 2009 I bought the BMW and rode it about 120 miles today. I don't think I have ever rode a bike that was that smooth and it handled great. Please don't disown me I still have my Venture and will keep it. It is a 1999 K1200 LT with 15000 miles.

Kross Kountry Posted September 25, 2009 Share #3 Posted September 25, 2009 I've heard others say that the BMW's fill top heavy. What do you think? I like the looks of the late model BMW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hunter 1500 Posted September 25, 2009 Share #7 Posted September 25, 2009 Congrats on the new bike. 15k isn't many miles for a 99 BMW. Most those BMW guys ride that in a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mini-muffin Posted September 25, 2009 Share #13 Posted September 25, 2009 Well congrats, I won't bug you about the pics I think you got the point. Now as for getting disowned, most of you folks didn't read that fine print. Once a member on here always a member. We're like a cult just try and leave.

ctraylor Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share #14 Posted September 25, 2009 Yeah, nice bike, but did you make straight pipes for it yet???!!!!! No straight pipes for this one. I almost got a spanking by the Mrs. when I took the mufflers off the Venture. I bet it would sound good though. I'll try to get some pictures later but right now I am going for a ride....

ctraylor Posted September 25, 2009 Author Share #16 Posted September 25, 2009 way to go Curtis! how are you going to rig the trailer on that thing? Something tells me you already have a plan... Your future neighbor... Oh yeah I am already planning how I am going to hook up the trailer. Maybe a little more involved than the Venture but I'll get it done. I am getting ready for Bikes, Blues, and Barbeque in Fayetteville and am leaving in the morning. See yall on the road... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
