Happy Holidays to All!
I currently have an R1150R that I like. It's my first BMW, just came back to riding at age 57.
Don't laugh but I hadn't ridden since I was 18 when I had a Honda 300 Dream. I know, it was a dog but I didn't know any better.
So now I have the R1150R and sometimes it just seems like a lot of work to ride, top heavy and the ABS brakes are really grabby. On the other hand on the highway sometimes it just seems magical the way it handles and corners.
So has anyone had both the 1150R and the F800ST. From what I've read the 800ST sounds like it would be easier to ride.
Any comments would be appreciated, even about the 300 Dream.
