The BMW R1150 RT is at the end of its lifespan. I´ve owned 2 of these machines and found them to be somewhat uncomfortable on long rides ()3 hrs). I´m 6´ tall and my legs are bent at a slight angle that applies pressure to my ankles. Although the bike will carry my wife (155 lbs) and myself (190 lbs) with great ease, we find ourselves wishing we hadn´t sold my Harley. There is no way to stretch our legs. Those germans must be little people or something...same goes with the stock seat.....unbearable.....we´re going back to Harley Davidson....we tried....?
