    The feeling when you're at a stoplight next to a mustang, who revs his engine at you. You return the favor, and the light turns green. The mustangs tires immediately spin, and the car angles directly toward you, however, there is a nearby crowd, which it is automatically magnetically attracted to, saving your life.

      Yes, that Zen like state bringing me into the “now.” At 67 I have so many things of concern; family, friends, finances, lost expectations, a real recipe for depression. My K1300GT brings my mind into the present. All that other stuff disappears and for the time I am on it I am free. Upon returning home the feeling lasts for a good long time. Love my bike.

Nothing beats this feeling!

    I do have something I think only WE can understand... although sometimes we do get bikes that are somewhat practical.... even practical bikes will often inspire "The Look Back" when you get off of it and walking away... the overwhelming majority of cars on the road are basic as hell and just "Grocery Getters" and inspire no such personal satisfaction or pride in the ride. Most people's cars are singularly utilitarian... but just about EVERY Bike owner has an intimate relationship with their bike.. and it's NEVER... "Just a Bike"...

      He roasted the Blast pretty savagely a few videos ago, so don't get your hopes up lol...But I think the bigger ones are kinda cool just because of how unique of a concept the brand was, along with some of the engineering features. I would almost buy one just for that front brake rotor!

    Yammie, you are the one who has made love/obsess depending on how you look at it, lol, over riding. People all around me tell me to be careful or you are stupid or have some story of their friend crashing, but those people just don't understand. I've been riding a little over a month now and that ride to work and home is the best part of my day other than going home and seeing my kids. My 2 children are the number one joy by far in my life but riding is an experience that sets me free for a brief moment of everyday life and stress. I wish everyone could experience this joy we all feel when we ride and they might have a different outlook on their life altogether. Anyway, I just want to thank you is all....
