Bad day for a rider becomes a good day for society.

At first I thought wow, the bad luck. Then we find out he's a sex offender and wanted for murder. Oh well.

THP kills the bear guarding his meal ...

I can't stand that puke. He's of the same ilk we have here. The plank is a good idea, but I prefer keelhauling.

"According to a filing with the German Patent and Trade Mark Office, BMW has developed a proprietary screw whose drive structure mirrors the company’s iconic roundel logo. It is not a Torx, not a hex, and not a Phillips head. It is unmistakably BMW."

That thing is huge.

If your wish is to keep riding, then I'd do it. Cheaper than a trike.

Wow, great detail.

I wish I needed one. Probably more comfy than OEM.

Trikes, once silly to me, I now see that they are great for people with mobility problems. Respect.
How about this one...

My 24 RT has a key fob that locks/unlocks compartments.

Great stable of bikes. Salute to your motorcycle adventures sir. I have the RT and it is my favorite of the five I have now. Each one has its role.

The R1250RT is a great bike - had mine for 5 years and still loving it.

It's more than that IMO. If I had to choose, and it would be very difficult, between my current five bikes, the BMW would be the one.
The BMW has been the easiest bike to ride I have ever ridden.

I'd like it very much if there was some sort of standardization in the nut/bolt arena. Got me a BMW now that has loads of Torx fasteners whereas my Japanese bikes use metric and my Ford has metric and SAE and then some bolts that are neither, (bastards!). Ever seen an oblong bolt? I have, it was ...

Being new to BMW and finding out my limited Torx set was not enough, I found this neat little set from Klein Tools. 29.00 USD.

It was a perfect day, a tad windy. A nice little 150 mile jaunt.
