Hi Konrad welcome to the forum, where are you based?

For me it's not my choice of bike but that's what makes us different. Have you got one?

We had them in police spec as bloodbikes, older air cooled were very reliable, newer water cooled can suffer from engine/ gearbox corrosion , also blew quite a few drive shaft seals.

Hi there Konrad,
Welcome to the mad house that is Southwestbikers.com. Quite a few folks ride GS's or equivalent here. Those of us who don't kind of wish we did on longer rides...

You coming to join the fun this Sunday. RTTB, early starts, Lands end followed by breakfast in Panzance by 0830 before heading back through Cornwall and Devon's finest tarmac. Check it out in the 'ride outs' section on here.

Hi Konrad and welcome. If that's the bike you really like then it's excellent ! Ask anybody who rides any bike that they like and they'll tell you their's is brilliant cause they like it. It's all personal choice.

Hi Konrad and welcome to the forum :-bd

In my experience BMW = quality
If you like it then go for it..... a lot of biking is very much personal taste.

Hope you enjoy it here on SWB. There is a lot going on with ride outs most weekends and pub meets as well. If you want to keep up to date on what is going on the check the forum regularly or follow the Facebook page (link in my signature below) or drop me a personal message with your mobile number and will add you to the whatsapp broadcasts.

Hope to see you on a ride out some time soon :-bd
