Are you going to put knobbies on it for those dirt roads? I bet it'd look cool with a set.

My plan exactly, a 180 TKC80 for the back. Tires and a ECU remap and that's it for this year.
It does look cool:

Is it here yet? How about now?

I just cannot get used to looking at modern bike with no shocks on the rear axel. Yes, I know the mono-shock is located under the seat, but I still don't like the way it looks...unstable and hanging out in the air.

Not your grand father's or father's BMW. Looks cool to me but not my cup of tea to buy. I'll stick with the CB and current BMW.

The drop-off is suppose to be next Wed
They are having trouble finding the tires though 
. I found a pair if they can't Also, they won't do the ECU untill at least 1000 miles are on it??
RE: 2014 BMW R NineT - shdwghst457_imp - 06-17-2014
*inserts comment about looking for the tires on the wheels*
I wonder if the 1000 mile req. is to break in the bike more gently than a flashed ECU can.

Is there anywhere on the island to ride off road.
