Mmmm, bikes. Two beemers at the moment, a 1981 R80G/S and a 2000 R1200C. My first bike back in the Cold Lake days was a Honda XL175. Great old hack to tool around the boonies on. Sold it in the 80s.

The R80G/S qualifies for collector's plates so it's real cheap on insurance. I'm the original owner, bought it on my first tour in Germany with the Air Force. Still runs great and I have a 1,000cc kit for it but not sure if I'll install it, may invalidate the collector status.

Picked up the R1200C in Ottawa while I was at the dealer getting parts for the R80. I saw it on the showroom floor and got all weak in the knees. I lasted less than a week before I bit the bullet and coughed up the dough. Takes a llittle more washing/waxing than the R80, but it serves it's purpose well as a cruiser.
