A guy I work with rides one of these every day. The only time I havent seen him on it is when there is a foot of snow on the streets. As soon as the streets are somewhat clear, hes back on it.

Very nice bike. I had a BMW 900 back in 1975 and it was a fantastic crusier.

That seat is way to high for me so it would not work for me but its a fine bike and I wish you luck with it. Ride safe and often.

BMW's are great bikes. It was a tough decision for me last summer between an 03 heritage and a k1200lt. I opted for the hog because I loved the simplistic no frills design and I also convinced myself the heritage would hold its value better. 5000 miles of trouble free fun cruising has made me feel I made the right choice!

Nice orange bike, but I can only see half of it, the alien scooter is blocking the view!
Seriously, when someone tells me they don't like Electra Glides, I usually say thats o.k. I did not buy it for you!
