Beautiful bikes, each of them!

Where's your Diesel Moto Emax any photos?

I have a motorcycle problem..

Bonneville and Piaggio are the wifeys.

 

[Max]

What's the problem?...you can only ride one at a time...happy riding

 

[ECrider]

But you see, all parts of the tires have contributed to the fun.

I did notice

I'm a bit short of time, as I have to complete a garage building project today.

But they are on their way, may be tomorrow. ;-)

My '21 R1250RT:


My '19 R1250RT, which I traded in for the above '21:

My wife and I stopped in Nogales, AZ for "Finitos", which is similar to an Italian ice, but more Mexican flavors, like Mango Chamoy.
Her '20 R18 Classic:

My 2011 K1600GT (Traded in on the '19 RT):

We have a motorcycle problem, also. My wife has 3, but I only have 1. I'd like to get an R1250GS to round out my collection.

My Diesel motorbike:



In a nicer scenery, but with a not so nice flash from my pocket camera.

Here I have mounted a backpack, which looks a bit like the old fashioned racing seats.

The number plate was not chosen randomly. I live in the district of "Dieburg" which determines the first two letters "DI". And as it's a Diesel, finally, and two additional letters I could chose, the number plate was mandatory. I bought it new in 2015.

Great machine - classic and unconventional. Definitely a bit of a cafe racer silhouette with the bag on. Nice one!

 

[Max]

Fantastic...thanks Emax...what a beautiful little beast...

From a trip to the Swiss Jura. I was out for camping for some days.

Here I have mounted my custom made topcase. The Diesel forum members call it "the pizzabox". Yes, it's not a designers masterpiece on that machine, but it's top notch quality and very useful on tours.



A rest on the "Route des Crêtes" in Alsace.

​

Some wondering people on the Grand Ballon, Alsace.



My camp site in Switzerland.


On the road in the Swiss Jura.

A few more ...

I had a campfire every night. Some baguette, cheese and red wine was the royal meal for me. Through the bushes you could see and hear the Doubs, a river (here still a creek) that crosses the whole region.



The Swiss Jura is a fantastic landscape. You have mountains, rivers, canyons and caves everywhere, not to forget the roads. And they have not only landscape to offer.
It's really worth a visit.



On my way home I drove the left side of the Rhine, no Autobahn. Lunchtime.


Another short rest in the "Schwarzwald", a typical scenery of that region.

Very interested in the vehicle and I am doing some research as we speak... a very interesting setup on the gear lever side...I would honestly have one in a heartbeat...

 

[emax]

I understand you very well.

But be aware that it has ony 12 HP. That's enough for a Vmax of 100 Km/h, plus/minus some wind. But believe me: It's enough for this kind of travelling. I didn't drive my BMW R1150 GS since I bought this motorbike. It's light, takes only 2.1 liters / 100 Km and is easy to repair. The sound and the character of the motor is unmatched. I feels just good.

Sometimes there are well preserved specimens on https://ebay-kleinanzeigen.de.

Thanks for the link...has the gear lever an external spline that has another lever off it as a kickstarter?...if so does it have a decompression lever?...so many questions but there is another lever behind the gear lever...can you explain the setup for me, please...I wish I was standing beside it with you...
