Cool tunnel!

That’s so french, and what a cool place you found. Motobecane and Peugeot make the coolest mopeds!

I have no problem with two bikes on a picture, but the vote is only for the one.

I did, for a short while, that’s how I learned I like them.

Nice bike!

I like the GTR, it would be the ideal platform for a proper real world compressor engine.

I would love a modern GS with that engine and gearbox, that would be a bike I’d buy even if it would be 30 hp down inthe current 1250.

I’ve got a great walking like a penguin joke, which I’ll write tomorrow because I’m writing from my phone.

Issue isn’t lubed or not, it’s rust straight from the dealer

Your boat isn't a bike

Well, that's quite the hipe, @XTreme I don't know what I'm going to do. I have a tough day of work calls ahead informing people of price increases, and to me honest all this negative energy from the last few days has drained me, I'm exhausted. Feel like going home for the weekend, maybe see if my new plants have taken, ride a little, but I don't know. Weather is touch and go, it's still raining up north.

I didn't get that, Bruce. I was referring to Tym's bike being carried inside a car.

Carrying it inside a car going to the park? That thing is more like a puppy than a motorcycle

The one with the small wheels would make any kid with space to ride it the happiest person in the world.

I like the first one with the 1150, truly like their enthusiasm and the way they just went touring.

If you bring knee sliders it'll make it appropriate for racing in Supersport, and if you fit number plates and knobby tires it'll then make it also appropriate for Motocross, basically it's the most versatile motorcycle ever.

People who like posting focused and undistorted pictures, that's who!

At least you're now starting to take pictures with the sun on the proper side of the bike, now that sidestand doesn't do you any favors by really leaning the bike so hard it manages to hide itself from light, placement is key here! Also, look at those dirty tires!

On top of being a boat, it's an out of focus boat, are you campaigning for TOTY already? That looks like a picture of a screen!

My submission, the GS overlooking a sunny Atlantic Ocean earlier this month, in a famous surfing spot called Praia dos Coxos

It's come to that time of the month again, submit your pictures for the now infamous Bike Of The Month vote. - One bike per member - It must be a motorized vehicle with two wheels, belonging to the member - It must have been ridden somewhere with the corresponding picture!

That's pretty much it, except here in Portugal finance for buying a BMW is usually way easier than other brands, that's why there are so many GSs on the streets here. People pay 220€ a month for a big GSA while for the same amount over at Honda they walk out with an NC500 or 750. Who cares how many payments, or if the final finance amount is huge, but they will either trade up for another one and carry on paying the same or just refinance the final payment. They end up spending 8 or 10 years paying for a bike that they use on some weekends just because you just have to have a BMW GS with cookie boxes for luggage. I know of a guy that just trades bikes before they get to 2 years old, he spends 1500 to 2000 every two years making the trade, and just keeps paying the same monthly payment. Somewhere there is a fool bigger than him buying a two year old bike, but only paying 1500 or 2000 less than full 25000 ticket price on a new bike. Even though this is how things are, it just doesn't make sense how they can unload all those used bikes on the market for such expensive prices, or why people wish to commit to so many payments on a bike. Unless it's a work vehicle, you buy it and you ride it.

I was talking to a guy the other day, who is a little involved with a Honda / BMW dealership, and he says people don't even care much about the spec of the bike they're buying as long as it's there and ready for the next day as long as finance is available. We're talking all price ranges, which to me is insane.
