Nice scooter Train.  Rode my buddy's 1600GT (which he is selling if anyone is interested)  Lots to like but not for me for longer rides.  Good to compare and keep an open mind on what's going on in the motorcycle world or thing get stale.  JMO.

Yeah, I can't fold myself up enough to get comfortable on the GT.

Maybe the best part,
There are BMW forums for people with BMW's.
What a novel idea.

Ironically, the BMW forums detest the Harley guys as much as visa-versa.  Go figure.   :-\  In the immortal words of a cultural icon:  "Can't we all just get along?"  :2vrolijk_21:

I personally don't care what you tour the country on i just ask that you engage me in conversation when we cross paths and wave when i ride by.

So that's the issue?
Rodney was looking for a Hyundai Forum when he was pulled over.
Thanks Jimmy, you have enlightened me!

Considering that the title of this thread is "CVO Street Glide vs BMW K1600GTL", it would seem to me that posting up in a specifically titled Harley/Beemer discussion thread and suggesting the Beemer owner GTFO is being quite the Snarky dickhead.
But that's just my opinion.
Certainly, it is a topic within the CVO general, but it's a topic that is clearly labeled. There is no need for anyone to feel invaded and defensive.
Just look at the title and elect to click elsewhere so you'll " hear no evil"

I personally like the looks of the GTL though I don't care for any of their other offerings.


Edit: note that MANY BMW owners are also HD owners including those in this discussion.

It's all good; we're just dicking around and in good humor....I think.  And I learned a new acronym "GTFO".  So the day isn't a total loss.   8)

What title does calling someone a "Snarky dickhead" for expressing their opinion earn you?  I can think of a few.  Just sayin' ...

OK Mr. Surley
Your response is posted and we all know how you feel. I hope you feel better getting that off your chest.
I myself feel better now knowing that Jimmy understands what GTFO means.
So at least your post wasn't totally useless. (at least in my opinion)
As far as you, it's people like you that don't have a clue about the person posting that takes a comment and warp it to mean what you think is being said.
So being the politically correct person I am let me express my point again.
If you want to know about BMW's go to a BMW forum, if you want to know about Goldwings go to a Goldwing forum.
If you want to know about CVO Harley's go to CVO Harley.com.
That may be more that you can comprehend but for a snarky dickhead it seems fairly simple.

Maybe he's just trying to get his 15 minutes of fame.
And if he's going to call names he might as well get it right, it's Mr. Snarky Dickhead.

In order to not dilute my point further, I've struck-through the anatomical reference. The "snark" remains.

Really the only important thing here.  I couldn't care any less what anyone rides.  Let's just go ride.

I have owned both!
And today don't have the BMW!
I have a stable with many bikes in it, a 1930s indian, a 1963 BSA, two CVO,s and a Ducati 1199s! all these bikes all have one thing in common, they all have a soul! you don't have to ride them hard, you don't have to ride them fast, you just ride them and every time you do it brings a smile to your face and forget the chit you have to deal with from day to day.
The BMW was probably the best motorcycle I owned but had no soul, no history and no feeling so it had to go because lets all be honest, if it was a means of transport we were talking about we would all just drive cars!!!
