You know you're a 950 owner when… - Page 24

When you're out alley-hoppin cross town, like a complete hooligan, at night, in your 50's!

Just got home. Olympics?

When you pick up a sweet RC51 as a stablemate, but have only ridden it 3 times in the last 3 weeks because you are to busy riding the 950.

When a cop pulls along side and lights you up with his searchlight and gives you the thumbs up!

When you get hoots form people next to you at stop lights aafter they have been staring and, mesmerized by the coolest, trickest clutch cover from CJ Designs where they can see your clutch spinning round and round.

umpteenth = at least 200k miles = 4 rear drive BMW failures, 10 fuel pump failures, and at least 2 or 3 CAN bus wonkyness...and a second mortage to pay for it all.

I was riding the other day, I noticed that I had a speed wobble at 90. I thought that was quite strange as I don't usually get those until over 100..... Must be that worn down TKC on the front

When you foolishly sell your 950 and buy a BMW 1200GSA and then a couple of years latter start frantically looking for a near new 950 to to fill that hole in your soul.

When you rationalize a $50k garage shop explanation as a reasonable service expense for your $10k motorcycle.
