Kirby says HI .
« on: November 22, 2017, 04:50:09 PM »
 Had a nice lunch meetup with the Kirbster today at the Amish House in Choteau . The locals seemed surprised that a couple of old guys were out riding on a 40 degree day , we just smiled at them . One guy asked some questions about the Rockster , looked pretty puzzled re the boxer engine , then looked even more baffled by the Jackal motor . Then he stated , "I own a Harley" which explains his reaction  :evil:

 Anyway , 'twas fun , thanks Kirb , ride safe to CA .

Kind of was wondering as I haven't seen a post from him in quite awhile. Glad all is well. :thumb:

Thanks for the Kirby report.  So, the old Rockster is still motoring along?  Good to hear.  I sold mine after 17,000 miles.  As with several now-departed bikes, this one was probably a keeper.  Not complex for a Beemer.  Mine didn't even have ABS (I didn't want the servo assisted ones.)  Dual-plugged from the factory.  Nicely mapped, pulled from lower rpms much better than a previous R1100RS.  Maybe Kirb could provide a short owner's report on his Rockster experience sometime.

Happy Thanksgiving to you dudes from America's Southwest!

Believe Kirby has over 100K miles on his BMW.  Is he riding during Thanksgiving?  :huh:  Haven't seen Kirby for a few years now.  Last time was @ Datil Rally a couple years ago.  He's always welcome here.  :thumb:
