BMW G310R
My wife sold her 2012 Ninja to a family friend a few months ago and we just replaced it with a 2019 BMW 310R. Bike only has 800 miles on the dash and still has 2 years warranty! We negotiated it down to $5000 out the door inc. tax and reg. The bike is\was(see Dumb@ss thread under general) spotless and has 2" wide chicken strips on the stock tires. Bike is practically new and beautiful--Pics to follow-- and the previous owner traded it in on an XR1000R! He did not use the 30HP he had so he bought a bike with 120 more HP than what he was not using.
Well heres to hoping this bike will have her back on the track and riding much more often! |

Nice buy! Congratulations! I did test the GS version before I got my Ninja. The vibration on GS above 6K was a bit over my tolerance level But otherwise I absolutely loved it.
Having been working with their cars for a bit I saw all the same engineering approaches in the bike and I really liked it |

Nice choice. I have a G310GS in the garage. This bike doesn't look like it's built to a price point at all. It's just simply a lightweight GS bike, which is what I was looking for, rather than an overweight, overpowered ADV bike. The build quality for the price is amazing. The R has all the same stuff.

Speaking of the tach - I noticed that too on 310, how good is your best-half with music and musical instruments ? I have been driving manual cars pretty much all my driving career and I never look at the tach at all. May be not totally never as I still calibrate my ear for some time after driving something new but then I usually hear it. People who played some instruments usually are very good at detecting a pitch and hearing the revs without looking at the tach. |
