My uncle had his BMW 1600GT bought back by BMW because it was going to be out of service for too long. He used to bust on me about my Ducs. "When are you going to buy a real bike?" he'd say. 

Not so funny meow, is it? 

I actually think Beemers are okay.  I'm in lust with the R1200RT.  Just don't buy early in the model cycle.  Lots of stories just like your uncle's.

My friends' borrowed BMW in Italy. Failed tranny bearing. The day they got it back it leaked oil due to "bad new output shaft seal". Then they got it back from that and had a rear tire covered in brake fluid the next day.

Wow...I had been reading their RR on ADVrider.  That bike is not very new, and how many miles??
