I have beeb reminded over the past few weeks that I don't need to go to rallies, especially the GMR.....
Fact is, we look around and observe all the new bikes, new set-ups, new accessories, new technologies, etc., and I wonder how long my '07RT wants to remain a passion.
Well, unfortunately, I returned from this year's GMR and decided it would be okay to start looking and considering a trade up. Yep, test rode a '17RT at the recent Hourglass Cycles open house. Gained a sense of possibilities and returned the next week with Erika to ride 2-up. Another strong vote of confidence. The new LC engine is really nice and smooth and gathers power at a rather pleasing rate. I didn't know what I had been missing and realized that BMW could actually build an RT that
didn't clunk when changing gears...up and down.
I started talking prices, add-on accessories, my trade-in, etc., and we cut a deal. Fair and upfront all the way around.
We took delivery last Thursday morning and it now has a sweet 347 miles toward the break-in period. Think we'll keep it, thank you.
