It's all about the scooter, since purchasing my 2 Suzuki Burgmans I've
less interest in K-bike riding, reading about K-bikes, or posting here. It's been nice to know most of you & I appreciated the freely offered help. If I decide to clear out my horde of K11 parts & accessories I will keep you guys in mind...

Enjoy the ride.

Fare thee well Kent, I for one enjoyed your particular perspective.

Ride safe friend, life is short.

Thanks for the kind words...

JO you know you are always welcome, I would love to see you spend
some of your cash at the "Temple of AeroStich"...

My original reason for trading my GS/PD for the K11 was to try &
incorporate riding & recreation w/my spousal unit. It was not to be.
SWMBO really likes her Burgy, everytime she takes her helmet off
there is a silly possum grin on her mug. Me, I like the step thru ease
of access, less strain on the geezerly hips. After fully farkling the LT
the K worked, but there was the missing better half, so...

I've already put more miles on the scooter than the LT so it's on to
the new. When you guys achieve your geezerdom don't quit riding,
just switch to a girl's bike. You'll love the reaction you get from the
HD riders when you wave to them. Laughing Laughing

Well I know it's only been 2 days, but I don't think that I can suffer
the fools on the BurgmanUSA site much more, what's up wit grown
mens buying big oversized Japanese scooters as their first MC's,
talking about their Frog Togg rainsuits??

I took my LT out for a nice lunch yesterday to Floodwood, Mn.
It may be impossible to get rid of that bike, it's just too nice...

So, can I come back?

Before you leave the Burg site you should wreak some havoc.

Suggestions:

Oil thread.
Tire thread.
How can I get better mileage thread.
What's the proper technqiue for knee-sliding thread.
I never use my front brake thread.


Since you didn't sell your K11, you never left the darKside. Very Happy

I am always up to handing blindly throwing my credit cards Andy's way Smile After all, I am here now because of his fine products!

Now, if they could just sell a version of the Combat Touring Boots *already* broken in Wink

Sorry to see you go, glad to see you back!
