    Mark, you have the best of both riding worlds - the upper midwest during the summer and Tucson during the winter. This is another great video. With record 80 degree temps in Tucson right now consider a video of riding up Mt. Lemon.

      Great minds think alike! The day before leaving Tucson, I rode up Mount Lemmon. I'm working on a UA-cam video to be released this Saturday. Cheers!

    Thanks for the ride along Mark. Great views and sounds from the beautiful BMW. Well done my friend.

      Good morning, Larry. Thank you! I'm now back in Wisconsin and have awaken to 9 inches of fresh snow. Time to do a little plowing and clear that driveway.

    Beautiful ride Mark ! Curious about your camera placement in this video. 👍🏻

      Greetings Robert. The camera mount is on the front of the windscreen. I found a great bracket that provides a perfect clear field of vision. Best regards to you!

      Hey Robert- Just thought of this....You might be able to see the camera position in some of the "shadow" clips as I turn in and out of the position of the sun. Hope that helps.

    '95 RS here. Please don't tell me you didn't have a beer and a bean burrito smothered when you stopped there? That just looked like a great ride.

      I did not...but I wanted to. Had an ice-cold Coors Banquet beer after returning from the ride! Thanks for watching.

    Marc, I don’t own a BMW yet. Have you had the valves checked on this motorcycle? I’ve rode four or five BMWs and it seems to be a little louder at idle than it should be. I’m not an expert. It is a beautiful motorcycle. I hope you’re enjoying your trip. It’s amazing ride safe and in peace.

      Hi Peter- the BMW art is such a great bike. As far as valves and noise, It is more typical to hear a little bit of the valve train, based on this boxer style design. It has great character as they say.
      First valve check is due at 12k miles. Thanks for watching, your comments and everything you do!

    Dude, I live in Tucson year-round. Ride an 06 999s, a 96 RT and a pristine 98 k12 RS - not all at the same time!

      That is awesome. Thanks for watching and thanks for sharing your iron horses that are boarded in your garage!
