rz500...had a chance to buy a super clean one locally that was titled and registered here. Think he wanted 10k Just starting that thing up was awesome <a href="http://s247.photobucket.com/user/bhsdriller/media/rz_zpsimceyjj5.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg137/bhsdriller/rz_zpsimceyjj5.jpg</a> Wicked bike, easy to tweak to 120 HP.

Was looking at the R1200GS Adventure a couple days ago. That bike is F-A-T. Handlebars are axe-handle wide, and it looks like it would be a SOB to handle on anything other than gravel roads.

BMW F800GSA. I bought mine new, 2015, in desert tan. It tours, does some decent off roading, great range, acceptable handling for mountain roads. All around excellent bike, not sure I would have preferred the 1200 at this point. Was looking at the R1200GS Adventure a couple days ago. That bike is F-A-T.

I got both! Two Ducatis in my garage.
I have my Multistrada for daily trips, errands and longer rides. 
I have my Paul Smart, well, because it is beautiful, nostalgic, limited in number and a prize possession. 
I just spent a couple of hours working on my PS. Cleaned up the tail by removing the big fender and lights and replaced it with an LED taillight. Also got a new clutch pack that is awesome! Neither of these are my actual pictures but they are pretty close to what my bikes look like. I love riding. Damn rain is keeping me indoors these past few days!!! |

One bike to rule them all? Doesn't exist.
If you have a diverse need, a multi-purpose bike will probably suite you well. However, Buy American.

One of the big KTMs.
I currently have a KLR650 and a FJR1300. I love them both but they are completely different animals. A big KTM (990, 1098, whatever) would have the go anywhere of the KLR with the power of the FJR.. or maybe I would hate. I dunno.... |

I always wanted one of those when I rode, no way I would get any use of it now unless toddlers fit in those saddle bags. Wish I had bought one when I was in my twenties. I always wanted to do one of those Alps tours on bikes that they advertised back in the 80s. Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
The one I already have: Kawasaki Concours C14. It's equally at home droning along the interstates two-up, having fun in the twisties, or anything in-between. Engine is a beast that can do 0-60 in less than 3 seconds but delivers power smoothly across the rev range and doesn't take off without provocation. I can't think of much it can't do, and do well, except for off-road. http://s30.postimg.org/bjgqj4xbl/C14.jpg The bags each take a full face helmet with room to spare, how flexible are the toddlers?
Hoping to do the 4 Corners ride when the GF and I retire many years from now. I don't remember the Alps tours that you mentioned, but man, wouldn't that be something? Ahhhhh dreams. |

And a set of sumo wheels are on the list too. I already got the 690. Love that bike so much. Sumo wheels will follow when money allows. If I could have 2 bikes... 1190 or 1290 adventure. Probably the 1190 adventure r. |
