    Not slippers as such, moccasins perhaps . . . .

    The all-knowing Google produced this:

    The R90's would tick most boxes...not a lot of slipper 'n ' pipe bikes have won Daytona.....you could ride all day, get parts easily and attract a crowd of admirers when parked up.
    They should be ridden not hidden.....

    Totemic- Derived from Totem Pole, slang for giving one a boner, not applicable to R90S or any other BMW- see under heading 'Testicular Pelvic Retaction'

    In the last 18 months I have had 3 BMW's In that time 7 Guzzis too though- 2 x Mk2, Calli, 750-T, V50, Ambo, and Mk1. 1 Guzzi = 4 BMW's so it is still a 95% Guzzi/BMW ratio
    All adding to my Totemic value
