So Anyway...

This was aprox 1:30 yesterday afternoon, the street is 45 mph, the white car on the curb across the street pulled out in front of the bike, this is the driveway to leave the job I was on
 
No really the NEW Enfields are substantial-- I mean still over weight and under powered--- but Harley guys like that ------ (theres a girlfriend joke in there too ---I like to maximize the hit)
The Continental GT and Himalayan are looking like solid contenders

If they could JUST put a bigger motor in it------- :(

I had a BMW 650 Enduro -- and ---- it was SO abysmal on the road it jsut wasnt any fun-- now -- it did o.k. off road and cow trails-- it was light for sure-- but long distance travel-- 2 up--- w/ gear----- was a NO go (unless you like 55 mph slugging ---

It was nice and TYPICALLY BMW reliable-- 650 Rotax motor was bullet proof -- it was just so dull...........

I know a Royal Enfield 410 would be worse--- though I like where they are going


THe only other bike that INTRIGUES me -- is the KTM 1290

but its basically JUST a POINTY Tiger-- so why spend the $

the new Suzuki 1000 V-Strom is nice as well.... but again--- pointy Tiger why spend the $
