!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FOR DECORATION!!!!!!!!!!! YOU GOTTA BE SHI!!ING ME!!!!!!

Some people got no sense, I'm sorry, but that's a beautiful machine, the key word is machine, meant to use and have fun with. Not to park in a Penthouse to admire, I'll admire it in my garage AFTER riding the crap out of it, while discussing the ride over a few beers with my riding buddies.

Hey, to each his own if ya got the scratch, you can do what ya want, what a waste, just my opinion though.

Man, there's no way I could walk by that machine everyday without riding it :shock: When I bought my R1150R last winter, it was tough to have it in the garage and not be able to ride it. By the way, I rode a K1200S this summer and it is flat out amazing :!: It pulls so hard, what a joy to ride.

Were I to put a bike on display as art it would be a MV Agusta F4 or a Ducati 999R. And it would be red. Nothing else really compares from a beaty standpoint, IMHO.
