2 R1100S Sightings in 1/4 mile

Ran down to our main shop yesterday and saw a Red/White/Blue Replica parked with a few other bikes. Was quite surprised to see it. Then as I hit the main parking lot I saw my bikes ABS'd Twin.

I dont know what to do. I feel like selling mine now, its become a very common bike it seems . Seems there are more R1100S' on base then GSXRs now..

could it be wing-wipers have more taste in motorcycles than crunchies or track toads?

I was in vegas last week and I think I saw the same bike. I was hanging out at Margarittaville by The Royal Casino. Whom ever was on it rode it down the strip while I was outside.

Oy gevalt! It's a real kick in the schmeckel to see poseurs on a real sport-touring bike. Don't they know that Ducattys are best for posing on the strip? ;-) It's a shande!
