I hear you man. I fret over my $4000 Suzuki TU (almost dropped it while swerving around giant wash on the farm road in rural Nevada few weeks ago, and rode depressed for 200 miles after that), nevermind a bike with a price of a mid-size car.

No engine running and the drive chain still attached means your output shaft bearing is spinning at full speed with no oil lubrication. That may be fine at slow speed for very limited distance but for anything like hiway speeds and miles forget it.

I was sold on the performance and comfort of the R 1200GS after spending a week riding one up the Pacific Coast Highway two-up. It is an impressive machine. The price is less impressive. Who in their right mind takes a $20k bike into any sort of wooded environment with babyhead rock roads? Well I did, but it was a loaner. Not on my dime.

I am a maxi-scooter rider based in Virginia Beach, VA just interested in what ya’ll are doing out in the mid-west.

I ride Aprilla Atlantic 500 (just purchased) and an Aprilla Scarabeo 500 GT ABS (riding it since Jan 2009 and former Vespa P200E rider back in mid-1980s).

Looking forward to hearing your adventures.
