BMW R850R
Hi all!
My present rides are an R850R and a Silver Wing 600 Scoot but hankering back after heavy metal at the age of 72! Previous to the Silver Wing had a Moto Guzzi 1400 California Custom and before that a couple of Triumph Rocket 3 Touring's so used to the weight and want to go out in style, lol.
I know you guys -and the odd girl? - will steer me on course.
Any other 'oldies' on here?
 
I am sure most are younger then 30 lol…not. Would say an R18 will service the need of going out in style. If weight is not an issue for you grab an R18B else the Classic. A guy in Florida has a TC foe sale on fb for only $22k. Not many want the base R18 though I am cheap and it is not my only bike so went for it. Though it and the Classic only have 4.7” of rear travel and the smaller gas tanks.

Enjoy your reach and do lots of demo rides :)
 
If you have a liking for the Classic First Edition, I'm selling one. ;-)
