Nice looking ride. I have a GTL. Hey what jacket is that you have on?
Thanks!
It's a BMW branded jacket, the Pure Excursion.

Is that custom paint ?
Nope, it's a factory color for the 2018 Grand America, Austin Yellow Metallic.
I bought the bike used and put a down payment on it, before driving 6 hours to pick it up. I wasn't sure I'd like it, but as soon as I saw it in person, I loved it. It's a little wild for me, but I get compliments on it all the time.
Sometimes it looks green, sometimes it looks yellow. This is an unedited photo from my phone on my last trip.

Interesting how it looks like a straight yellow in those light conditions.

Couple of BMW's
SO the wife and I use to ride a lot...We got the ATV bug and traded in our Harleys for ATV's. That lasted about 3 years and wished for two wheels again. Moved to Denver last year from Kansas City and went "Window Shopping" for new bikes. As you know, Window Shopping is just a poor excuse to buy something new
. So while the wife was looking at the various new BMW's, I was just wandering around the dealership. While there, it was recommended to at least take a ride. So off the we go (one 1250RT and the K1600B). Rode for about an hour, on both and fell in love with the B. As she was wandering around the dealership, she seen the Blue K1600B and even thought it was used, she had to have the blue and left me the green one.
This ride we started on a whim in March on a nice Saturday around 11 AM and decided to see the "Welcome to Colorado" sign at the New Mexico border. Got a little cold when we pulled into the garage at 8 PM when the temp gauge read 38 degrees on the dashboard. Both seat and hand grips were at full heat. Lucky we had warm gloves/jackets with us on that ride.
