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.

Steve you should try a 1600 ,i think you would be very surprised at how easy they are to chuck about ,oh and bloody fast too .

Dammit. I think I'll get one then. Now, where did I leave that spare £22K I had laying around.....
