Favourite BMW's now let's see...

The R90S - very collectable now
The R100RS - not yet collectable so I want one real bad. A good early model will be an investment for sure. Something I will do in this life.
The K1100RS - I had one for six years and rode the thing daily, a couple of months ago I saw my bike (with a group of other bikes) outside a cafe and nearly fell off the Daytona turning around and going back for a look. It was like meeting a ex-lover after four years separation, I knew every curve and every scratch, well the ones I put there at least.

And today the Daytona is in the shop getting a reburnt ECU - bugger you Triumph! And the shop dudes gave me a 12 year old K1100LT with the works to ride. And a gentlemanly conveyance it is.
