I have finally decided to try and sell my K1100RS.
I have had a love/hate relationship with this motorcycle ever since I bought it, but I think it’s time to sell it.
The main issue I have with it is that I get really sore shoulders when I ride it for long distances. The topper was last week when Leslie and I rode down to Winona. It was the first time that Leslie had ridden on the back of this bike. The trip wasn’t that long, but I got really sore shoulders – it was worse with her on the back then it is solo.
I’m thinking of buying an R1100RT or R1150RT to replace it. Something with a more upright riding position. I’m going to try and wrangle a test drive from some people with these bikes and the boss of a friend of mine has one for sale!
So now, I have to hope someone jumps on my K and buys it.
I’ll be sad to see it go, as I really do like the bike. I think it’s a beautiful machine, but I don’t think it’s the right bike for me anymore (if it ever really was.)
Ah well. I always have a hard time selling a motorcycle. Wish I would just hurry up and win the lottery so I could keep them all… 🙂
