BMW R850R
After riding a bike like this on
my trip in the US in 2002, I knew it was a great bike so when I had the chance to
buy one for a decent price, I did it. It needed some work so the first trip was to
Motorservice Ossendrecht for some much needed maintanance but after the maintenance and
two new tires, it is exactly the bike I hoped it would be.
