Why build in Quality?

Well he wasn't riding an ADV with aluminum side cases with stickers all over them or BMW or a Ducati..no wonder it blew up in a Starbucks parking lot. It was heresy that caused it to backfire lol

ADV = BMW 1200GS?

ADV = BMW 1200GS?


Among others.... KTM 990, 1190, Yamaha Super 10, Suzuki Vstrom 1000 and 650, Triumph Tigers 1050 and 800, BMW f800 GS

Vs the BMW R1600GTs and R1200RT and R 1150 RT, or any Ducati Street bike or an Mv or Aprilia or well almost any Euro street bike

Vs showing up at Starbucks on a regular ol Honda

And you know I was just poking fun right? Playing upon the misconception that those who buy ADV bikes consider a Sunday morning ride to Starbucks an adventure..even the BMW ad pokes fun at them for going on an adventure to the mall for a coconut smoothie..see the irony there?

Are you familiar with whale foreskin riding suits? Lol

Are you talking about Aerostich crash-suits? It does indeed get roasting hot sitting around Starbucks in my Aerostich, but I have to make sure people know I'm a real motorcyclist.



I gathered you were poking fun at the Adventure-Poseurs as soon as I figured out ADV=1200GS. I do the same to the Harley Renegades--parallegals & orthodontists mostly, who dress up in ominous black leather with metal accoutrements, lick-em/stick-em tattoos, and ride around with a permascowl that never looks left nor right, always forward. You can just tell they're premeditating their third-strike felony, on their way to raping a policeman or something even heinouser.



A few summers ago, I was cruising with my dog on my crotch-rocket on Pacific Coast Highway and waved to a couple on a Harley Road-King. The female passenger on back waved back, but her male pilot slapped her hand back down!

(Looks like someone forgot the pre-ride briefing on who not to wave to.)
