The wisdom of the Wingers has won me over.
It came down to a GL1800 ABS or a BMW K1299LT, and the advice of a BMW-riding friend decided it. He said, "Paul, I love my Beemer, but when I'm your age I'm gonna ride a Wing."
So now, I'm shopping for the best used ABS Wing I can afford... probably an '05 or '06.
We ride all year long down here in Dixie, and I want to make the most of it.
I bought my first bike 15 months ago at the age of 66, four months before I retired from CNN. Since then I've traded up through a Suzuki S40, a V-Star 650, and a Suzuki C50T to a C90T. Now, I think I'm ready for a real bike.
