In between jobs I took this bike through Northern Northern California, Utah, Death Valley and back. With the 1149cc engine this bike produces enough torque to haul whatever amount of gear you want to pack the panniers with. The BMW 1150RT frame is stiff enough perform through the twisties with ease.
