Todays was one of life's
Todays was one of life's beautiful 'see what happens' days. I wanted to ride my RR around but the universe said no. So I went to meet my friend Sarah at my local BMW shop with my little back up motorcycle (poor Svarty has had to work twice this week), and ended up taking a demo bike out for an hour. The weather was bad enough that despite being a busy day for BMW, most of the bikes were available so we could pick from most of the range. I chose the new F800GS because it was sat there looking all cute, Sarah chose the R1200RS because she liked the way that it was staring at her.
We had a lovely ride and didn't get too wet. Actually I think the F800GS is kind of perfect for me, on paper. It's small and light but with a punchy enough engine to be enjoyable, and speedy enough for me to keep up with whatever I'm in the mood for - without causing too much chaos. It's a little more road focused, which, realistically is a good thing for me - since I love the idea of an off-road capable bike but am deeply afraid of going off-road. It looks the part, not spectacular but gritty enough to be impressive when parked on a bit of mud with some bags slung on it. Presumably.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy this video showcasing our short time together, it isn't very informative, but the internet is there for you should my experience inspire you to seek more in depth facts and figures. As always, thank you for supporting my channel with your lovely views (heart emoji).
