+1.
First bike was a Suzuki SV650 that died when I was hit by a car (my knee died, too!). Gave up riding for a year or so, then got the itch when I saw a new BMW R1100S. Bought it, rode it from LA to Vermont and back in 2005, one of the best things I've ever done. Bought a BMW K1200S in 2008, did a couple of long trips on it, then realized that phase of life was coming to a close and city driving didn't appeal to me. I live in Dallas, and about every 2 weeks there is a mcycle fatality that boggles the mind (flying off of 100-foot overpasses, etc.), so I let it go. The e93 is a near-perfect replacement.
But I will always love how it felt to ride.
