My BMW has arrived – let’s see what it’s like!

Last year, I entered a couple of races in AHRMA with two bikes – a Kramer 690 and a Honda CB175. Things went well with the Kramer (including a podium finish in my second race weekend) but they went…less well with the Honda. I know I owe you more updates on that bike and I promise I will share more …
