Okay, I was asked, by private message, to post a photo of my new '09 BMW, so here she is.
View attachment 10687
This is my main "ride" mostly because of comfort during long days (700-800 mile days) and wattage output for accessories, like driving lights, heated riding gear, GPS. But, after spending a summer BMW-less (after selling my previous one and waiting for my new '09 to arrive) I really got to appreciate the FZ6 for its better handling characteristics and "Yee-haw" fun-factor. Since I put Givi's on the FZ6, it's going to be hard to decide which girl gets to go for a ride.
