No matter the date I'm really surprised it didn't last longer than that. It makes me skeptical of the DR-ZSM version being a much more reliable Supermoto.
yeah I'll edit it...

yeah you're right... I want the Dakar version... which is like the "adventure" or like the F800gs is to the new version (no directed at Mira... I know she knows her BMW Shit)

but honestly I think I'm gonna take a bit, wipe out my debt before I buy another... figure a year- two year break would put me at 0 debt... but damn it's gonna suck
