New from Colorado

[MurphCO]

Currently living in Pueblo West and Denver, and I work in Colorado Springs....come June I'm relocating to Denver full time, but I'll still be working in Colorado Springs.

Confused? Yeah me too....


I haven't quite pulled the trigger on the Tenere yet, but I'm about 95% convinced. I have been considering an ADV bike for about a year and been researching etc, had myself convinced that the BMW GS was the way to go....but after taking a hard look at the ST I'm thinking it might be a better route. Partially based on price, and partially based on maintenance costs etc. (doesn't look bad either)

I'm pretty sure that the day I take a test ride will be the day I purchase one, and that day is coming very soon.

Murphco , I did the same thing with the BMW and after much research decided on a ST ::014:: I have all of my accessories and waiting for my bike in the next two weeks ::022:: ::004::

 

[MurphCO]

People are still waiting on them? I have been to 4 different dealerships around here that have 2 or 3 each



I better get after it

Hey MurphCO, Merf here... in Colorado Springs. (Now *I* am confused!)

I picked up my S10 from Apex last Friday. As of this morning's ride to work, it has 700 miles on it. I researched and lusted after this bike long
and hard for almost a year and I COULD NOT be happier!

Best of luck with your relo and Denver drive!

Merf

aaaaaaaannnnnd


as I type this my new baby is being taken out of the crate and built


i was worried that I might miss the torque because my current bike is a Victory Hammer 1634cc.....well, about 10 minutes into the test ride when I got the front tire off the ground shifting into 2nd, well.....i was no longer worried.
