One of the guys who we ride with has a ZG1000... very similar to yours, just less cc's. Heard they are perfect for all types of roads, even seen a few do a mild dual purpose run. I was surprised it actually made it through without getting trashed.

The original Connie... nice. When I bought my old ST1300, I looked at them... but I had to stay on a low carb diet... ST1300 had EFI.

That's a sweet track bike

My favorite GSXR's were the superman headlight ones. I owned a 2000 GSXR600 and then upgrade a year later to a 2002 GSXR1000. Great bikes if you don't float a valve first

Here are my current bikes...I go thru bikes like underwear at times.

2013 BMW S1000RR
2011 GS 1200 Adventure
2001 Sporty 1250....it started life out as a 883 but now I changed out the jugs, bored it out, tuned it and its a sleeper.

No idea why the pic of the sporty is upside down....i gotta work on that. ...

That is freaking awesome! You are right were I want to be in the next 5 years! Sports bike for the track days, cruiser for bar hopping, and dual-purpose for trips into Mexico... I love it! I was soooooo close to pulling the trigger on a 1190 KTM last month... I was too slow!

Thanks. I'll probably be getting rid of the RR next year come time to give it back. I picked it up 3 years ago, wanting to get back on a sport bike. The past 6 or 7 years I've been focusing on riding the GS. but 3 years ago I needed something quick again. If I do anything next year, Ill probably take a year off and pickup something used to track with. The RR being ...well being BMW's... isnt something to risk tracking. lol

If you have the chance get a KTM or what ever works for you. I've taken my GSA on a few hauls into Canada and love being on it. Past 2 years I haven't done any major trips with it, but hopefully this summer I will.

My old riding buddy out in Sealy TX has a KTM 890... that things been everywhere between TX and Alaska. He got tired of beating up his old ST1100. Great bike!

Growing up the 69 SS big block Convertible was one of my all time favorites. So my 2015 SS Vert was a logical choice. I also loved the old Triumph Scramblers Steve McQueen ripped around the desert on making my current 2015 Triumph Scrambler another logical choice

I love Scramblers! My father-in-law had two 69' Yammy's in his barn when it burned down a few years ago. We were pretty said because we were going to clean the carbs and ride them that Fall.
