Hi All,My name is Paul and I have just got back into BMW's after a "bikeless" period since selling my 1996 K1100RS in order to build a new house. That took 7 years and now we are back on a 2004 K1200RSPlanning a few rides including a South Island tour after AGM rally in Nelson. We have already done a few thousand Kms over the winter, a lot of it in the rain, so we are ready for anything !Keen to hear from anybody who has done a cross USA trip.
