A K75C, Eh? The "C" model is kind of cool with that small cockpit. How about some pictures? That is as close to kicking tires as we can get.

Welcome.

Welcome from Oregon; ?It's smooth isn't it?
Come out west for some of the best BEERS!
Just stay out of Calif. They'll tax y'all.

That's true, Cal loves to tax people, But we can lane split in stopped traffic.

Many beautiful places in Caly. (Russian River)
They also lane slit at 50MPH :yow
The new 911 double parked on a busy two lane downtown street (when I got to it 1/2 hour later) kind of made me more OFF on Caly. It was downtown St. Helena could have been Coppola.

Anyway welcome. Check out the music at this years' BMW MOA Int. Nice.

What? A traffic problem in St Helena? No, never!

The truth? I try not to go anywhere up valley (especially St. Helena) on the weekends and use Silverado Trail instead of Hwy 29 when possible.
Of course, an October ride through the valley on your favorite beemer is not to be missed. The grape leaves in their full Fall color is not to be missed.

Riding from Calistoga over to Santa Rosa should be nice too.
