I have completed my bike order. I just finished up about 30 minutes ago.
It's going to be so nice to be back on two wheels and on a Beemer.
I won't have my bike until April. It should be delivered on the 23rd of April. I won't be there and I won't be able to ride it for a while.
So, I've decided to have it repainted (or wrapped) in the traditional BMW Motorrad livery. My guys can take care of that - including wrapping it or repainting it. We've got a portable paint booth that's permanently set up inside the garage barn.
That'll be done before warm weather gets to Maine and probably before I even get back to Maine.
Awesome
I am super stoked. The Ducati was just plain absurd. The R1250RS will top out at a similar speed, but is a lot more tame getting there. Besides, I'll never once top it out. It'll be fine for cruising, fine for carving mountain roads, fine for slow cruises, fine all around...
I even made sure to get all the luggage options, in case we want to hop on it and head on a weekend trip.
It's going to be so much more comfortable.
It's not like you can legally drive at the top speed anyways. May as well be comfortable. Right?
It is going to look really cool in the livery
