Thumbs up New Rocket...

Well, if the wife will not let you keep it in the garage, the dining room is a viable alternative!! Congratulations!!

bike storage

A bike in the kitchen doesn't that void your house insurance?
I was going to do that one time and I was told if there was a fire and they proved the cause was the bike the insurance would not pay?

Another common denominator we have other than being Texan. I built a 650 chopper in my bedroom. We need to meet up and throw back a couple of cold ones.

Out of curiosity, how do the K12R and Rocket compare?

The bike's is in the sun room not the kitchen. I'm not concerned about my home owners insurance having some problem with it. It's no different than having it in the garage because the garage is part of the house.

The BMW K1200R and the R3 don't even compare!! The R has 150 hp to the back wheel and it's about 300 lbs lighter. I added a few pictures for you. You really can't compare the two anyway and that's why I tell the wife I need more than one bike.
