Hope I don't offend anyone with this observation ... attended a local Euro Bike Meet n' Greet back in Sept. to help a couple of Euro-Ridin' pals set-up a refreshments table ... BMW was heavily represented at the gathering and I would have to say a good many of the Beemer Riders present struck me as either slightly eccentric or somewhat "elitist" if you get my drift ... of course I could be wrong!

Before you diagnose yourself with depression or low self-esteem, first make sure you are not, in fact, just surrounded by arseholes!

Airheads tend to be eccentric (and wear grubby old clothes), and oilheads tend to be elitist (and wear only BMW attire-kind of like HD riders).

Just like Savage riders, BMW riders come in all types. We have bobbers, cafe racers, street rodders, and I don't know what else. Among beamers, they don't modify their bikes as much, but there are all kinds. I suspect some of them even ride a Savage at times.

Custom seat, front fender extension, Givi tail trunk. Daily rider, and I rode it to Morgantown N.C. by way of the Dragon and Rhinebeck NY in two separate trips. 16 years of stone-cold reliability, one year of discovering that I wasn't ready for the hobby of keeping an old bike. And yeah, I still miss it!

Reply #12 - 10/26/10 at 22:48:14 I have never heard anything bad about MG ,I do prefer the old styling from the 60s. Moto Guzzi has a fine reputation,but one of the few bikes I have never riden. so I'm not going to give it a title, but you can

You should like it because of the old school "cafe" styling. Just to add, I've seen your motorbike history. If you get down this way you could scratch Guzzi off your list. I got two and only one ass.
