So as a birthday and christmas gift I bought my GF the new 300R to get her on the road and off the back of my bikes...

Ive been riding for 4 years now... all supersports... I just bought a new bike in August and decided I didnt want her on th back anymore.

Its winter here in Canada and the Bikes are winterized but I took a few pics before I put them away.

She will start riding next year after her motorcycle course.

Sexy combo. Where in Canada are you located? Liking the S1000 :D
Kinda curious as to why you didn't just put a down payment on the bike with a scheduled pickup for early March. Now you gotta insure it against fire and theft :(.

I already had a downpayment on the bike, I was told christmas time for delivery... they came about 2 months earlier than I expected. :rolleyes:


The price for them to store vs. my insurance, well my insurance was much cheaper and I have the place to store the bike. Either I took the bike or waited for the next one, or the next one...

I think they are going to be pretty hot in the spring... I wanted to have my hands on one as soon as the warm weather comes back!!


Any dealer I am aware of will want to charge storage for the bike and I didnt want to be waiting on a shipment of bikes or give a date and still have to store for a few months.
That BMW is SEXY!!

Thanks!... Ive got some CF on it... the rest is on order...

Its, um, quick... :p
Nice!! The green is very nice but I think I will opt for the moondust gray since I want ABS as well.

I am in Ottawa also, do you mind if I ask you where you got it and if they were willing to deal? OGTC is pretty firm since they know this bike is going to sell out before the spring.
Im really liking them!

I bought it at OGTC... same with my S1000RR.

I dont think you are going to find anyone what will move much on these bikes until maybe this time next year...

They WILL be a very hot bike...

I didnt think the ABS was going to be that big of a deal on a bike that only weighs like 380lbs... if it would have come in green with ABS I would have bought it...

There is a chance that end of next season there will be a few crashed 300R's and I will pick up the full OEM ABS system and install it.

Congrats to you both!

An S1000RR is on my radar as well. :)

Yeah, she is just finishing a degree and now working on accredidations and qualifications... So she has no money... I figured "hey, its not as fun with her on the back so I will make her ride her own bike and I will get to ride more without her complaining that I'm never home"

:p
Nice gift! Now get her on to the forum too!
I am now on the forum lol
I wish my bf would buy me a bike. Then again I have more then him :D
