Between myself and a buddy of mine, we have owned about 15 Beemers. He owned a much wider variety including several K bikes. He's the type of person that likes to have 1 car/1 bike, because "you can't ride 2 at once". He ended up buying one of the last of the air cooled R1200GSA bikes. He loves it, that's his "it" bike. He loved his K1200S but sold it due to reliability issues.

I have only owned boxers, 1150R and 1100S. They have all been bullet-proof reliable and great bikes to ride. Not too long ago I bought a '90 GS100. Even being that old, the GS gives my BCR a run for the money in the fun department.

I'm still at an age (50) when I enjoy flogging the BCR through through the canyons but I am now leaning towards distance rides and the GS is the bike for me to do that on.

If I had to make a call on the last bike, I'd definitely consider the oil heads, an RT would probably be a great choice.
