Welcome to the board.

When I read the title.....traded a K1600 for a 13 SERG.....I involuntarily cringed.  I sure hope it's a good bike for you and that you don't live to regreat it. :2vrolijk_21:

Welcome back, I did nearly the same thing. Sold my '03 RG, bought a Wing becoming addicted to the extra power - wanted more and traded for a R1200RT. Found myself on a nearby frontage road going 110 mph and decided my life and family needed me to stick around. Besides those others have no soul! Happily back on my RGCVO... :2vrolijk_21:

Welcome back, I made the same move many years ago.  I went from a 74 Electraglide to a K1000 nice bike at that time.  It was funny boxer purists would not accept it as a BMW, my HD friends accepted it better than most of the local BMW crowd.   ???  Came back to HD after a few years, loved the BMW but felt something was missing when I rode it.  Before anyone says anything I know the K1000 was nothing like the new Beemers but the new HDs are nothing like the old AMF shovels either.   ;D

Welcome aboard and great choice in bikes, I just purchased the same bike (Atomic Orange CVO RG) back in December. I sold my 2007 Road Glide the same month and my wife of 26 years was pushing me to buy the K1600GT/GTL. She was never really comfortable riding on my 07 RG. I also owned a 2008 BMW K1200S that I just sold two weeks ago and my wife liked the comfort of the K bike over the Road Glide. Last week she told me if I want her to on any long rides I should look at purchasing the K1600Gt/GTL.

Gee, your wife is telling you to buy another motorcycle. How can you stand to live with her?

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 Snowy Portland, ME - 31.9"
I know the feeling you mention. I rode Beemers for 33 years
There is just something special about riding and HDCVO
