Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com In this episode, I'm joined by Lurch and Rick "Big Daddy" Kane.  Rick recently purchased a 2019 BMW GS 850 adventure motorcycle.  Several of the guys here at Law Abiding Biker (LAB) purchased adventure motorcycles in the last couple of years.  Rick, himself, has owned several adventure motorcycles over the years.  He talks about why he chose the BMW of other adventure motorcycles and the Kawasaki KLR 650 in particular.   One reason Rick choose the BMW GS 850 is he lives approximately 90 miles from us here in the Yakima, WA area.  We do most of our adventure riding around Yakima.  We are lucky to have lots of good riding right out our backdoor.  Rick wanted a bike that was comfortable for that 90-mile ride to meet up with us.   SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE Highlights of the 2019 BMW F 850 GS: 2-cylinder in-line engine with a displacement of 853 ccs with 95 horsepower at 8250 rpm, and 68-foot pounds at 6250 rpm.
