Personally, I think BMW is smoking the weed if they think they'll sell a naked bike in any large numbers at a price of $13,000.

Wife, back seater, says it is a lot better on her too Interesting Screen name, B52G--I have about 1200 hrs in that ...

Just bought a Stealth Backrest that I found right here on this site for $200 plus shipping--just installed it 3 days ago.

It was in perfect shape with nary a scratch on it.

phlem35 :lol:, Well, since you're in Cincy, I'll not mention Tri-State--but you need to ensure that the Indy dealer that went the way of the dinosaur is included on your compilation.

Congrats on the promotion and thanks for serving. Are you based at Wright Patterson? I lived near there for about six years. What a great museum they have there. Thanks--I am indeed based out of WPAFB--great location, and yes, an incredible museum! I'm an Ohio boy, so I'm glad to be back. Regards!

Hey folks,
I need to buy a BMW Touring Screen (windscreen) for my R1150R from Chicago BMW--but don't have the part number.

Anyone happen to have it?

Thanks,
