1964 Bridgestone 60 Sport, 1974 Suzuki RL 250 vintage trials , 1979 KTM 400, 2003 Honda XR 100 R motard racer, 2014 Honda CB 500 X

The Bridgestone is for the Moto Giro in April 2016, the trials is just fun, the KTM is a bad boy and my Honda just gets me anywhere I want to go without drama and great gas mileage!

My XR 100 R I use for mini racing in the Ohio Mini Road Racing League which starts up April 24th at Circleville.

Honda still #1, after all this used to be the Honda Sport Touring Association. I recall some guys ribbed me about needing to buy a Honda after joining on a Suzuki. I'm on my 3rd Honda now (1 Suz, 1 Triumph, 1 Kaw).

Well my bike ownership has changed since I last entered my bikes on this list. June 9th of 2020 I traded in my 2014 Yamaha Super Tenere' ES on a 2020 BMW R1250GS. This is the first BMW I have ever owned and well I'm really enjoying this bike so far. I got a ride in on Monday 12/21/20 the Winter Solstice and now the bike has 13,986 miles. Hmmm... Almost all of those miles were put on here locally in the Western NC, Eastern TN and Western VA. I did 1 over night in West Virginia. I've ridden other older BMW boxers and really didn't like them. This new 1250 motor is very good and it has lots of electronic gagets.  ;)

I still have my 1999 Suzuki SV650 that I bought from Jim and Ginny LaPoint in 2004 but I certainly don't ride it much. I keep thinking I should sell it... ?

You might want to do Superbike school on the SV. The GS is  a great bike, I am sure but ...

Hi Bob. No I want to do it on the bike I ride most. I just don’t ride the SV much any more. I’m not doing the school to be a racer and go faster I just want to improve my riding. If I get a little faster in the process... ok.

Hi Tom,
You know it’s funny I didn’t go out with the intent to put 14,000 miles on in 6 months... it just happened! First of all I really enjoy this 2020 BMW R1250GS. It’s unlike any BMW I ever rode before. It’s not nearly as agricultural. The 1250 shift cam engine seems to always be in the right place on the power curve. So it’s a hoot!
Additionally a friend started a forum to assist in getting rides together the Carolina Old Farts Sport Touring Association. And we’ve gathered a great group of riders. During the week us retired guys ride. Then on the weekend the working stiffs in the group want to ride. So I ended up riding a lot. Believe me it did nor suck!
The SENA intercom with the mesh function makes riding more fun and I believe actually safer.
Additionally it doesn’t hurt that we have some pretty darn good roads down here in Western North Carolina.

Have a Very Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
Brick
