BMW R18

[Django]

I would never buy one, our roads here would crush its capability but in the flesh they are a work of art. You just need to ride it within its capabilities and accept what those may be. I try and always remind myself to judge a bike for "what it is" rather than "what it isn't".

True words.

I thank you all very much for your input, which is just as diverse and contrary as my own feelings. One moment I think I don't need that thing, next moment I bewonder the steam engine, the fine quality also in material, all metal, no plastic, the engineering in this machine, the simple design.

Well next week I will get one for one or two days, let's see if it can convince me on the road.
