Moving to Germany...

[mrjoeys50]

Well I just found out I am moving to Germany (USAF). I am stoked, and yes the Busa is coming with Has anyone been to Germany with their bike, or currently there? I’m in Iraq now, but when I get home I am going to make the insurance call... hope it's not that crazylease: Well if you have been let me know the ends and outs. My bike is going to be crated... first I am going to strip it because I don't want them to mess up my new airbrush job. Thanks guys/gals!

You will have a damp good time there. I assume you are going to Ramstein? A very good time can be had but you will want to invest in good rain/winter riding gear to be comfortable. I have a buddy with a GSX-R750 that is always complaining about the lousy weather but that is near the black forest. So your climate outlook may be different.

 

[mrjoeys50]

yup Ramstein is the place... heard that about the rain gear, so I guess I will start looking. Boy it's going to be a change from the flat Florida Hwy riding I've been doing for the past 6 yrs.

cool, man. so you have to have insurance on the bike in germany? i may be finding myself in a similiar situation this time next year (i hope, lol). insurance right now, for me, (if i had to have it) would cost 3400 bucks a year. glad the bike is paid off and i don't have to have it.

have fun over there, its a great area K town has some interesting places, you'll enjoy the area roads. I was there over the winter so no bikes out but I suspect you wont have a problem finding riding buddies. Dont forget the local busa group is doing their thing jun 2010 in germany

Germany is awesome, i lived there for about 6 years total (Pre-Busa). The drivers there have a much greater respect for motorcyclists. Beautiful roads and scenery, insurance may bite you in the azz.

one of my dreams is to hit the Autobahn on a Busa! have a safe and fun tour there!

 

[m_ridgeway]

my wifes friend was there for years... she loved.... she was in spangdalheim (sp?)

 

[zukracer]

man the area around spang is freakin wonderful.... I'm soooo ready to fly over there for the june event...might just have to rent a bike while I'm there

Enjoy, some beautiful places over there. My brother-in-law stayed over there for more than 12 years with the Army. Of course he didn't get to spend all his time there; Bosnia, Iraq.....

i hope you tear up that autobahn real good when you get the chance. you will definitely see some big league rides sizing you up.

 

[Phil96]

Not a Busa, but a good shot of Autobahn, insano hoon.

 

[jdsbusa]

I was in Bitburg and Spangdahlem. The Nurembergring is just a quick jaunt down the road from Ramstein! You gotta hit a track day there!! You're gonna love the food so long as you're not a vegetarian.

Moving for good you think? That's going to be quite a change in climate from Florida. You definitely have to send us pictures when you go!!

No, not for good, just for the next 4 years. I lived over near Bitburg as a kid for 10 years.... so I like that weather better than HOT Florida. And yes guys and gals I will take plenty of pics, and maybe a tank cam or two of the Autobahn

And yes guys and gals I will take plenty of pics, and maybe a helmet cam or two of the Autobahn
