While it was fun to ride the 11 again, I also realized that it is not even an extreme sport bike and yet, it gave me knee problems. My GS does not do that.

I am over it!

I did a very similar thing last Sunday and when I got home ( with similar knee issues) I looked at it and then at the Ducati and wondered whether my plans for the Duc were doable.

I'm not 'over' the R11S as I've had some much fun on it, but the head is starting to rival the heart in the decision making.
