Welcome! Torrance/South Bay Area here. Also had a 1200RT, a K1600 Grand America, and now a R18 TC FE - which I think is the best of the lot!
Always remember Temecula from seeing a classic car show there 15 years ago. We were driving through Southern California from Palm Springs, Salton City etc. A fantastic holiday for UK based tourists.
Thanx for the input, so no looking back or regrets buying the R18 TC? Or did you keep the K1600? I am torn between the platforms as I have about 25 years of sport bikes and love to canyon carve but getting up there in age and the RT was a bridge bike for me to leave the sport world.
We should get out then since you're right done the street. I live off of Leon Road near Scott Road.
Very nice. You would be very surprised what has happened in the last 15 years. About 50 more wineries, more twisty dirt roads paved over for our enjoyment, and "Old Town" where the car shows are held is self-sustaining with more hotels and food than any of us need
Ortega is fun! Still have not made it up to Glendora Road or Angeles Crest. Dealing with traffic to get to your area puts me off.
I sold my K1600, and no looking back for me. The TC is more comfortable for me and my wife. Obviously it’s not a canyon carver, but it does surprisingly well in the twisties, good enough for me. My knee dragging days are over.
Let me know if you’re coming up this way sometime on a weekend and we can do it!
Thanx, that’s the response which helps me pull the trigger this Saturday.
I’m in Temecula Valley area Rambler
