Welcome, Traded 2012 K1600GTL for 2013 Road Glide CVO
« on: February 09, 2013, 11:20:06 AM »
New to this forum. 2 more days until my RGCVO (orange) is delivered. Traded my just about new BMW K1600GTL for it. Went from Harley's to BMW's 4 years ago, good to be back.  The Bimmers were great Bikes, the K1600 probably the best bike I have ever ridden. But in the end I was riding too fast and missing that something special that is Harley Davidson. Won't be driving the new bike for a while we just picked up two feet of snow in Boston.

Welcome from The Island!

Before getting my first Harley...there was 20 years, to the week-end, since riding an FJ 1100. Was gonna die if I kept riding it at those insane speeds!

Welcome aboard from Minnesota! You may want to go to the new member thread and introduce yourself. I've test ridden the BMW 1600 3 times now and just love the bike. I can understand your concern about riding too fast on that bike, it just never stops accelerating! Welcome back to the HD fold.

I had a  09 k1200LT, my wife's favorite very comfy for her. but top heavy lots of plastic lite on torgue. then the K1600. The wife was not comfortable on the K16. Thought about keeping the K16 but having 2 expensive bikes depreciating just didn't seem right. going to miss the heated grips and seat comes in handy late in the season here in New England.
