BMW Custom Concept

It could be that I'm getting old, it could be that I'm getting tired of the tickets, or it could just be that I like more than one type of motorcycle. The BMW Custom Concept appeals to me -

BMW Custom Concept

Really, though, when I look back - I'd be pretty happy if they would freshen up the R1200c and bring it back. Neat looking bike that was pretty darned capable when it was out.

Yup - the big FOUR-OH staring down at me. Tell me, when you had your 50th birthday, was it as tough as your 40th?

Much love man, you know I'm kidding you.

Re: BMW Custom Concept

i don't think changing the bike will matter, it's your riding style that needs to change.

Not fiddy yet. People have a hard time believing my age. Spinach and beer is the secret to my eternal youth. Cruiser's just don't do it for me. My bike's gotta have lots of power, good brakes and handle well. That's just the way it's gotta be.

Re: BMW Custom Concept

Just out of curiousity - have you ever ridden one of the BMW cruisers? There really isn't anything in the cruiser sector to compare them to where handling and braking is concerned.

True, straight out horsepower has never been a selling point of the air cooled boxer motor, but many a sportbike rider has been surprised seeing a BMW on their tail in the twisties.
