Hello all - I just started riding again after 15 years and bought a used BMW as my re-entry into the world of motorcycling. I bought a blue 2003 K1200GT and really love the bike!
I live in Canton, GA (not too far from the North GA mountains).

Welcome aboard 60Hz!
You will find out all about your bike in the KBrick forum

There are all sorts of other forums you can check out, so post a picture of your bike and check out the palce - any questions feel free to post or if you have some thing to say put in the the right area for a discussion to start.
Welcome!

Welcome Cantonian!
Your not too far from the rally this weekend....you should head on up even if it's just a day trip. That GT makes riding 6/700 mile days a piece of cake.
Also, check out the local Georgia club... www.bmwmoga.org
There's a monthly outing somewhere around the state, a monthly rte in marietta somewhere, and a heck of a lot more going on.....
peace,
theo

We don't care what you ride. :laugh
You would be surprised at how many BMW owners also own HD's.
