Re: R1150R - for a tall guy?
I'm 6'5 and love my R1150R. FYI, my Sargeant seat rocks.

Octane vs gas mileage
I've been putting premium in my bike since I bought it two or three months ago. Do I get better gas mileage, better engine life and performance, or should I just go with regular?

Towing a motorcycle...
So I'm hearing rumors of a 179 day TDY to Vegas. I really want to take my bike if I go for that long. Unfortunately, my tow vehicle is a 2005 Nissan Sentra 1.8L that I've added a tow hitch to. Is that insufficient towing power for an I-40 cross country trip of 2250 miles pulling a small trailer with...

ACE Basin, Colleton Co., SC
Went down to the ACE Basin in Colleton County to my buddy's place this weekend. We had a group of four - Clay on a Harley Sportster 1200, Travis on a Sportster 1200, Kristin riding with Travis, and myself -and rode a good chunk of the county. I'll add more later but here's a bit to whet your appetit...

Re: My Spring Wildflower Ride
Great links to the camera site... I'm drooling over the Olympus E-510 with the 14-42MM lens and the 40-150MM lens. Its probably "more camera" than I need, but man.. Its sweet.

Re: Just got my first BMW!
I'm living up in Sumter, but my mom lives in Summerville and Dad lives on Edisto. I head down to those areas or Walterboro almost every weekend.

Re: My Spring Wildflower Ride
Great pics! Tell us about your bike! Also, any recommendations on a good camera for someone getting started in photography? I sort of prefer digital due to a personal hatred of having to get stuff developed and don't want to bother learning to do it myself.

Re: Just got my first BMW!
Hehe I'm actually pretty happy with the way it is right now. I sorta prefer a touring bike to the "sport" or "sportster" look. Unless I go to Myrtle Beach for a weekend, I'll be doing 110 mile drives twice a weekend.

Re: First BMW for me two!
Very sweet! To post the pics, I posted mine to a pic server account (I use flickr.com but a lot of folks use other websites like photobucket.) Then, insert the link for the pick, highlight the link and hit the Img button.

Re: Just got my first BMW!
I put 250 miles on it over the weekend. I'm a pretty new rider... bought a Virago 750 off a buddy last year for $750... Still trying to get the title for it... He lost his copy so I got a notarized lost title certificate and mailed it to Wa. state Dep of Licensing. I've been riding that 1-2 weekends...
