The store behind your bike - they repair shoes and Harley Davidson's ?

No idea, I've never been in the store (but I suspect not). I parked my bike there and took the picture for a picture challenge game. I thought there was a bit of irony in having the H-D sign in the picture of my Beemer.
 
Bought this 1996 RT in New Hampshire for the grand sum of $1000 and then rode it 1200 miles home to TN with minimal maintenance. It gets worse the closer you look, but there seems to be nothing major wrong with it other than both Fox shocks are leaking. Rides better and shifts smoother than my R850R which is kind of embarrassing considering how much work I've put into that bike.

Shoutout to fellow MOA member Mike in Ravena NY for selling me some parts I needed, on short notice, while I was rolling through!

If the bike looks familiar to anybody, let me know -- it's got both MOA and AMA stickers on the back of the saddlebags, and had a full Corbin seat setup with red pipe trim and a backrest when I bought it.

What a screamin' deal for that bike!

And...I'm sure your (very) short passengers appreciate that tinted windscreen. :D
 
10-4, I added the big lids to my BMW RS touring cases and the BMW RT touring trunk, solved my touring capacity for my '94 R1100RS.

A couple somewhat more recent photos after I upgraded all the lights and turn signals to LED units. I still love the appearance of this bike.
