My Bmr is the bruiser. It has got away from me twice, both times while stopped, and over it went. I could not pick it up, and needed help both times. I am thinking of going the dual-sport or adventure route, with only one bike. I like those Triumph Tigers, but I don't know if I could pick up its 474 lbs myself, but I think it would be a great do-it-all in TX, if we ever get there, that is. I may just take the Honda, and see what is available in TX. One thing I like about SoCal, it is the used car, truck, bike, boat, whatever, of the world.Replace "car" with "gun" and you have the same dynamic in TX. If you end up in the Dallas / Fort Worth area, visit DFW Honda in Grapevine often. They're good people. That's where I bought my CB1100 five years ago. The place is part museum. They have dozens of classic Hondas on display. Most of them were owned by family members. It's quite a trip to see them (the bikes, not the family members) suspended from the ceiling.
