Howdy.
just joined but I've used this forum a couple of times to research some stuff about the R18.
I bought a 2021 Classic a few weeks ago. So far I'm digging it. I've been street riding since I was 18. I started on a Honda CB750 I bought new in 1976. Been off and on street bikes and dirt bikes ever since. Over the last 45 years I was rarely more than a year or two without some sort of motorcycle. I've had all kinds and most of the major brands. My last street bike was a Honda CB1100. I've owned H-D, Victory and Kawasaki cruisers.
I have to say my new Classic checks all the boxes for me. It's a great looking bike in every way but y'all already knew that. I love the vintage look combined with all the modern conveniences. I also really like that not everybody else has one. You know what I mean so I'll leave it at that.
I took advantage of the $4K discount BMW was doing recently and I just picked up my $1K accessories today. It was just too good a motorcycle and too good a deal to pass up.
BTW, I think my bike is defective. It doesn't vibrate excessively, the seat's comfortable, the mid position controls are very comfortable and I only drag the floorboards when I try to. According to the reviews none of that should be happening. ;-)
Nice to meet you.
