New Bike and New to the Forums!

Post by alaskaflyer »

Just wanted to drop in and say Hi! I will be picking up my bike tonight. I've been bouncing around between sport bikes and Cruisers, I think this bike will be the one to truly make me happy! a buddy at work has the R1150R and loves it!

I'll post pics when I bring it home

Welcome Gary!
Congrats, and welcome to the club of happy motorbike owners!
Sport bike, cruiser, tourer, dual sport, hooligan bike. Yep, that's a R1200R :badgrin:
Is that you in your avatar? Very nice.

You did read the guidelines to joining here right? You know about the R1200R member's initiation?
Just let me know if you haven't and I'll help you through it....

Okay, I'll bite!

No, I have not heard about the initiation for the R1200R

Maybe I should do a search before I post this to see what I'm getting into, can't be worse than when I made HH60J flight Mech in Alaska and they tie-wrapped me to a creeper and pushed me outside (just until the ice started to form of course) then they'd pull me back in hose me down again then, Yep! back outside.

Oh, and if this requires documented proof of riding through town naked or something like that I respectfully request to wait until the weather warms up (shrinkage!) :roll:
