BMWs - Humungous

Post by MrGrumpy »

Was in Darlington today with a short time to kill, so I sought out S BIllau's operation - they advertise in MCN and always seem to have a massive & varied stock of bikes.
The front of their showroom was full of BMW touring bikes - God I never realised that they are all massive! They have a K1600GT there and a Honda Goldwing Trike, and I swear the K1600 made the Goldwing seem petite!

They are big, aren't they? Six cylinders too. They must purr along but probably not for chucking round the mountain bends.
Paddle harder. I can hear banjo music!
