Back On A K

[MIST]

In the past 13 years I've earned the reputation of changing motorcycles like women change shoes or purses. I very rarely own more than one at a time. A '10 K13S was my favorite out of all of them, but I thought I wanted something more comfortable for touring possibilities. Traded the S for a '10 RT, then traded the RT for a '10 Concours, which I currently have and really like even though the touring possibilities never materialized. I ride a Kawasaki, but my local BMW / Ducati / Triumph dealership has always been "home" to me. They currently have a pre-owned '09 K13S on the floor in nice shape with nearly 11K miles. Took it for a test ride on Saturday and that set the wheels (pun intended) in motion. The Concours is a fantastic motorcycle and I enjoy it, but it doesn't put the smile on my face like the S does. Before leaving the dealership I signed on the bottom line, trading my Concours for a '13 K13S. It's scheduled to arrive in the USA on 09/01, then on a slow truck to the dealership. Funny how history repeats itself.

It you can afford it then enjoy it...I like it.

 

Have you test ridden other models like the GT and GTL 1600 just as a reference? Not trying to change your mind at all.

If you found what you like then ride ON...k

I used to work for the dealership, so I've had the opportunity to not only ride just about every model but own quite a few of them also. I test rode the K16, but for the type of riding I do I couldn't justify the cost over the Concours. The K13 seems to best suit my wants and needs at this time.
