BMW, Triumph Tiger, Ducati thingamajig, hey, maybe even the Aprillia! They are all decent to exceptional DS bikes, albeit on copious amounts of steroids in the big bore clique. Yamaha Super Tenere and Honda Veradero? Truly exceptional in my opinion, and of course, the Suzuki Vstrom holds its own as well. These are a few of my favorite things.
And my Buell Ulysses? In a class of its own, holding its own and surprisingly...my favorite. If I had 24k what would I buy? Unfortunately a BMW with its hyper-cliquey following, not unlike the Harley crowd. What a shame.
70km of tire wear again on my commute today. Getting to be a relished regular occurrence.
