Anyone Ride?

This is a Knuck!

Even though I had great respect for the longevity and reliability of the Boxer twin and loved to watch (and hear!) Reg Pridmores bikes during the Battle of the Twins race at Daytona (and Dr. John Wittmers Moto Guzzis) , I had always regarded BMW almost as stolid and stale as Harley. Till they came out with the inline 3 and 4 cylinder K-bikes back in the 80s. Yeah , they also put 4-valve heads on the Boxers and went to injection over the old Bing carbs. Still , progress was slow to say the least.

I must have been living in a time warp!

I stopped by a local BMW shop the other day and the new breed of Beemers absolutely blew me away. As did the prices! I've just gotta go back and see them undressed in the service dept. IF any ever need service!
 
With all the complicated electronics on the new BMW and the way all but one dealer has treated me poorly and even dishonestly I would never own another and even if I did I'd unload it when the warranty expired.
I have a Honda dealer close by that has been 100% honest and easy going with me. No problems at all, if I ever need another bike it has to come from them.
 
Used to ride this one for some 30years.
