First day of Vacation and I found myself @ ...
Daytona
I was going to save all these until it was blistering COLD up north...but what the heck
They were setting up for a concert, I believe they said "lovin spoonful" was playing (thanks, I'll pass...if it was the Allman Bros...I'd still be there
)
Speedway as seen from Hooters
Iteresting trip, stopped at a BMW motorcycle dealership. Guy that helped me was pretty good, so I'm not dogging to bad. I was looking at the K1200S, he comes over...
what are you riding?
Busa!
Ahh...well, this is definately a Busa Beater.
(I smirk) You gotta nice bike here, but I wouldn't go quite that far.
Guy had some riding/track experience, said when he started working there, he thought they were all overpriced but you get what you pay for and now he sees why. Rides a K1200R daily.
Asked him about the Ducati.
(Personal note-I don't get Ducati, I've never riden or even seen on in person. I just look at the mag tests and the sticker price and scratch my head.) Guess I've got the Japanesse motorcycle mentality...if it ain't 4 cylinders, it's hard for me to take seriously (strictly performance wise). I realize that's pretty far from the truth...
When I mentioned Ducati this drool came out of the corner of his mouth like Homer Simpson and dounuts. He said, "do yourself a favor and go find a Ducati dealership and at least look at em and check them out."
I like the K1200S, K1200GT, and even the twin R1200ST (horror and shock).
OH yeah, then on the way home...of course I get rained on 3 times...the Sunshine State my Arse
