    First Ever New Bike

    Maybe the title gave away the ending. Actually ordered this a while back, wanted the lowered suspension. I can't flat foot a standard one. Got it from Frontline Eurosport in Salem, VA. Great to deal with. One of their sales guys, Pat, came to a couple of our BRP rallies. He lives up the road past the Wattstull.

        Low Suspension
        From BMW

        The combination of suspension lowering kit and a low seat results in a seat height of only 31.1 inches (standard: 33.1 inches). This means that even more riders can enjoy improved stability and have better control of their bike when maneuvering. The spring travel is reduced by 30 mm at the front and rear compared to the standard suspension.
        Product details
        Improved ground accessibility.
        Easier handling when stationary.
        Front/rear spring travel: shortened by 30 mm.
        Seat height: 790 mm (standard: 840).

        Ok. I don't really understand inches. Is 12 a lot?

            Wes, that looks great. Did the Triumph get culled? You and Elizabeth will haul ass on that I am sure. The pillion seating looks reasonable for a regular sized human woman.

              "Triumph and K bike are or will be up for sale."

              So . . . this means I need to get back to Virginia quickly?

              Wes, we need a report from Elizabeth about the pillion's view-point.
