Default BMW MOA RIDE-PIX!

I racked up over 1300 miles in 4 days on the S1000RR during my trip to Redmond, OR for the 38th Annual BMW MOA Rally. The bike performed flawlessly and I even achieved over 44mpg (in Race Mode) during one "spirited" ride.

In the forest....


At St. Helens....




Heading over the Columbia River into Oregon...


A sweet custom K bike @ the Rally....

Great pictures. Looks like you had a blast. Nice to see all the S1000RRs doing double duty as a GT. Thanks for posting.
