RE: Beemer's Company - Django - 06-15-2015 Our ride together was 263 km, small back country roads: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=z9I6LYEiNfxY.kOEV_tdfR390&usp=sharing Overall I did 401 km this day. Beemer's Company - Cormanus - 06-15-2015 Nice, Django. Thanks. RE: Beemer's Company - HikerToo_imp - 06-15-2015 Can you and the CB keep up with those made to tour BMW's?

On a long distance trip using the Autobahn you'd no chance to keep up. The K1300GT has 162 hp, if I'm right, and speeds up easily to 250 km/h (~155 mi/h), where then the speed cutter jumps in. Funny thing is, these 2 K100RS16V are from 1990, have already as good mpg as my CB, but bigger tank, 100 hp and already ABS. These were really good bikes for their time being, 25 years ago. The blue K100 of my friend, who also accompanied me one the saddle sore this spring to Italy, has 160,000 km (100,000 mi) on the clock. The white one nearly the same. Beemer's Company - Elipten_imp - 06-16-2015 The old K100 and K75 will go for extremely high mileage if properly maintained. Recorded examples up to 800,000 miles! Many over 400,000 miles. Even Ferret might not be able to wear one out in a lifetime.

I figure maybe another 125,000 unless I get lucky health wise.
