BMW is picky about where they spend their budget. They have two show trucks. Dallas was the weekend before Long Beach. And, set up is Thursday. Tough haul to get to each show. Their attitude is to go big on the two biggest shows. Besides, they are making the numbers on the GT and GTL that they expected. The entire demo fleet for 2011 was the big inline 6. Delivery status on orders is "good luck." The demo fleet for 2012 is going back to at least one of every model, including the new scooter. Yay!

Yup, the local bmw dealership is right around the corner from my house, and they make great coffee. They are advertising that they can get you a GT or a GTL by the end of the summer. BUT they do have a few in the store that they use as loaners and test rides, in fact if you bring one of the more expensive touring BMWs in for service, you will most likely get the big inline 6. Plus if you ask for a ride they will take you out for one. I got to take one out and I really believe that somehow BMW managed to shrink down a bunch of midgets and hide them all over the bike to do stuff for you, like in the seat where they massage your balls. The GTL is was designed to take on the goldwing, there is no doubt in my mind about that.

Great, I havent seen them since they were in Cleveland three years ago. I was sort of interested in seeing the F8R up close.
Any word if Triumph and Aprilia are back in the circuit? They haven't been in cleveland in two years either. [QUOTE=marko138;503672]Come see In Flames and Trivium with me SaturdaY.[/QUOTE Trivium is a good show, never seen in flames live.
