Hi everyone! 
I've been a member for a few months, been reading alot on the Forum and decided it's time to create a Profile and become a part of this fine group of enthusiasts.
I've learned alot from all of you over the last few months and plan to join in and perhaps help others through my experiences.
My first exposure to BMW motorcycles was through a relative who bought a new white R75/5 and I've seen it sitting in his garage over the years as I was growing up. He still has it, something like 14k miles and in excellent condition. Maybe he'll sell it to me some day!
My motorcycle riding began with a neighbor's Honda 50 (lime green) and Trail 70, then my Yamaha 250 Enduro and then a Honda CB450 during college. I gave up bikes for many years until I bought a Vespa 300GT after renting a scooter in Ft. Lauderdale a couple years ago. Intent was something relatively small but with some power to tool around on the back roads here in rural OH. I didn't have it very long until I acquired a Burgman 650 which was a fine machine except that my aspirations grew to something larger (I'm sure you can relate...). I then acquired a 2011 R1200RT with 22k miles on it after alot of research and patience to find the right bike (I have).
A friend and I rode to the MOA event at Fontana Lodge and we're looking forward to many more events. He recently "joined the Club" by acquiring an RT also!
