I've been riding and owning bikes for over 50 years. I'm 65 next month and have owned over 100 bikes. Over 50 BMWs including several GS'es, water, oil and air cooled. I just sold my 2017.5 GS Rallye, which was outfitted with taller GSA supension. Too tall for my 6' frame. I sold it last week and decided to look for something different. I could have gone for another, shorter GS, like a 800 or whatever, but I don't like chain drive. I have always been intriqued by the Super Tenere 1200 and the VFR 1200X. I know they are very different bikes and I've alway loved the VFR V-4s. I probably would have sprung on one of them if I found one. But I found this incredible 2015 ST with just 6,600 miles and lots of great options for an even $10K. I looked at and sat on it this past Saturday and was floored by how good it felt. I negotiated a fair deal and picked it up yesterday and drove it home in my pickup. I rode it today for the first time and was blown away by how easy it is to ride, how useable the power and torque are, and how I feel I could envision riding this bike for the next 10+ years with my lady and new panniers.
