800 to 800, 4 to 2, VFR to ST

Today (yesterday) Stienie converted from a Honda gal to a Beemer lady.

After being on the waiting list way back in 2006 for a ST and then cancelling her order due to........let's say unfortunate circumstances which led her to buy a Honda instead, it finally happened.
Really sad to see the Veefer goes.....what a great bike but equally fond to welcome the F800ST to the bike family.....the ever extending one

six of one and half a dozen of the other?........only time will tell but I'm willing to bet she will not miss the cold grips

Congrats my love, may you have many safe and happy km's



now where on earth have I ended up




wow, it's Africa!.....wonder if they understand German here




all shiny in the showroom, I'm a bit nervous.......maybe she's my new owner......she looks nice, I think I like her




time to leave for my new home......wonder if there will be other bikes as well




so this is it?.....where's the twisties man (women), let's rather hit the road






at least something is familiar here, most my other family members have an Akra end (no prizes for guessing our preferred brand in the exhaust market )

WOW
Stienie you lucky lady! Many happy miles girl!

(What does the jealous icon look like?)

Nice one!! I can see her already next weekend - leaving the rest of us behind on the road from Ermelo to Amsterdam!!

Need to get the first service done before then!

Thanks for the good wishes.

Please to report that .............

we are bonding , that's now me and the Beemer

400 km and I'm smiling. Comfort level for me a bit better than the Veefer due to the less aggressive riding position. Lots of dinga malories to play with during the ride on the bordcomputer, the fabulously comfy heated grips and that lovely sound from the Akra can.........dan's hy nog vinnig uit die blokke ook jong - can not wait for the 5000 rpm limitation to "dissappear"

And the best of all given the current fuel price, is the consumption - granted 5000 rpm = 138km/h and with fairly aggressive acceleration to that point as recommended but still, wait for it........................................

4.3l /100km or more than 23km to the litre.......woohoo, eat your hart out K1200S

Like I said earlier - watch out for next Saturday - we will be eating dust!!!

As they say, a picture says a thousand words

Super Stienie?
