    Yeah, so I'm liking the road thing pretty good and thinking seriously about either of these two bikes. Anyone have experience on them? Advice? The BMW is the single cylinder version.

    Oh, by the way, I road a buddy's Ducati 796 Hypermotard today. Way too much bike for my first streeter. If only I was 20 again... [IMG]

    I loved my do it all SM610 (converted TE) Was a great street bike for back roads and most anything.

    super fun street bike for these types of roads...

    Save yourself some coin and get a 610 and build it the way you like it.

    I'm seriously leaning toward the 630, but it's still a bit tall for the road. I can sit flat footed on the G 650. I wonder how the injection behaves on the 630's?

    I'd opt for the TE610 too. It's easy to convert (or so I've read) and rhe KBB retail price is $4130.00
