On another site, I can't remember which one and no, it wasn't Alzheimers.com, I read of a rider who didn't like the BMW R1200RT. Upon reading all that he wrote, I determined that he was lugging the everloving heck out of the engine. Same thing applies.

These bikes like to run. Give them some freedom and run them. You can feel it if you listen to what the engine says to you.

I think this is a boxerengine thing. Same applies to my Subaru Forester.
