Jumping Ship

Of course, if you can schedule a long ride out to Chico, CA (it's a well-known college town).

The difference hear being The Dealership is owned by BMW. And beleive it or not there are no other shops in NYC (not even independant).

CA Does not sound bad , Maybe the tow truck can get me there

Dang. I was hoping somebody would chime in with an independant shop.

That's too bad. If you are ever in Northern CA, do check out Ozzie's. You mention Manhattan being close by yet was unable to receive help. Well, Ozzie's have driven 90 miles to my house to pick up my bike for repairs. Then subsequently to pick me up so I can ride my bike home. I have called as far away as Kingman, AZ to report symptoms and get advice. They've dissuaded me from frivolous purchases that they did not feel would give me a good bang-for-the-buck, knowing they lost a sale but kept a happy and loyal customer. They are not a big store/shop; they're Old World, in an old building, and savings are passed on to the customer due to the low overhead. And while you are here, enjoy the Sierra Nevada mountains nearby.

Or party with the Chico State crowd.

Dizzy,
Here is an old link I found:

Talk about involvement in the sport!

Dizzy,
If you are considering a bike like the Tuono then also consider the KTM 990 Superduke, the KTM 990 Adventure or if you like an entertaining ride, the KTM 950 Supermoto. They have them as demos at my local dealer and I am more than tempted to swap my R1150R. Trouble is; too much choice and not enough cash!
