of motorcycles do some of you ride? Variety is the spice of life. For me, a 2005 BMW, R1200RT. Awesome bike, just on the other end of the motorcycle spectrum. Fast, carves corners, and cheaper than a Harley to purchase. I enjoy both my Harley and the yuppie-mobile.
Hey, I'd love to get my mitts on a BMW... maybe someday when I'm rich and can afford two new bikes. Yeah right. Well, right now I have my Sporty which I love, and an old Suzuki GS450 that I use for commuting in the city. Not too exciting, but it beats taking the train!
Still have my '03 Kawasaki Mean Streak which was my only ride before I bought my Springer. Still love this bike but I have neglected it since the Harley was added to my stable.
Well, I've had a Bridgestone 90 when I was younger (and much lighter), then moved up to a Suzuki 125 TS. There was a long dry spell on bikes for a while then I bought a Suzuki Intruder 800 a little over 10 years ago, I got hard on cash and had to sell it. Another long dry spell and I'm getting my Ultra this week. (Money matters have improved greatly. )
Other than the Bridgestone (my brother and I were always working on it) Ive enjoyed all my rides.

Currently a '03 BMW K1200LT. Long distance touring comfort, plenty of power in stock configuation, and sportbike handling qualities. BUT, if I didn't have a four star BMW dealer in town I'd own something else. Their (BMW) dealer network across the US is getting smaller and smaller.
