Leaving F6B for a BMW

[chipmaker]

I test rode the K1200GT after owning a K1200R. I thought I would like it more, but then bought a R1200RT instead. I haven't ridden any 1600s yet. I hate that BMWs are so tall, but I love the ABS and removable saddlebags. I'll stick with my F6B...

The tall stance of the BMW has always been a drawback for me. The R bike I had back years ago always made me feel like I was sitting on top of the bike, not down in the saddle. Everyone has their own likes and dislikes, that's why they make so many different kinds of motorcycles. The F6B is the best bike I have owned. Sorry it did not work out for Teach.

TTC, yep it happens. It is all good and I'm not bitter about my choice(s). The F6 is a great bike, just not right for me at the present time.

Chipmaker, If it ain't broke don't fix it... I should have listened to myself better. I don't think you are missing anything, but if you happen by a BMW dealer, it is always fun riding a different bike for a few miles (even if you don't plan to buy). My local Honda, Kawi, Suzi, Yamaha, Victory, etc dealer/owner calls me "the" local bike enthusiast. I have no particular brand loyalty and I always find something I like about every bike I try. I probably know more about the bikes he sells than any of his sales guys, I just like bikes. We sure are spoiled for choice these days.
