After an exhaustive 2 months of researching, searching , trying to make up my mind and then changing my mind, I finally pulled it together and pulled the trigger on a new riding option. Looking forward to getting out on the many, many forest service roads and old dirt mountain passes in my neck of the woods on my new to me Adventure Bike...2016 BMW F800GS-A, fully kitted out for off road as well as on, and in almost mint shape with a mere 12,000 km (7500 miles) on the clock.
Interesting fact...after going back and forth with the seller (about 2 1/2 hours from home in the big city of Vancouver), when he opened his door as I arrived at his shop, it was none other than Ryan Matthews of FortNine videos "fame". Nice guy, showed me around his shop and studio where they shoot their YT videos.
Looks kinda strange to have that Beemer in the Honda garage after all these years...hope it and my Valk and OldWing can all get along.
ps...I can add 6 more motorcycles, and my old Valk that I've owned for 22+ years will ALWAYS be my favorite.
