Re: Return of the R1200S

Flippin' heck .. is anyone out there :D Fair point! :D It will be interesting to see what turns up. As a RS owner I'm wondering what they'll do for the 1300. Essentials such as automatic gearbox, radar and maybe auto-lowering I suspect. Cheers Ian From a video I saw the auto lower only works with t...

Re: R1200S DOHC Project

As someone with the mechanical skills of a ( insert your favourite term for dunce here :roll: ) I think this is incredible. A beautiful bike.

Re: Work trip ....

Nice one Steve,
My son and I took our 2 x K100RS to the TT this year and had plenty of attention. Bikes were superb all the way from South Coast to Liverpool and over the Mountain too
