Veerrrrry nice. Cleaner than a clean thing. Is that a LH drive version?

Sweet
The lower photo is yet more evidence to me why the 12S always looks better without a belly-pan.

I'm kind of thinking about it.... I like the HP belly pan, the one that Eyore has is cool looking with stock headers. but I have to decide, I mailed Nigel at Sandbar for headers, but they are a touch beyond budget at the moment. I think it will be a Zard pipe first, then we'll see...
thanks for the comments guys...

Good choice
I don't think the yellow will detract the look too much

If, you mean the belly pan, it is the Ilmberger. The exhaust is the Akrapovic.
I had the 1100S on the left until I saw this 1200 and even though I really liked the 11 I knew the 1200 was the next logical step. I kept both for a while but the 1100 wasn't used and it was sold to Motocod on this forum. Two great looking bikes in my opinion.
The 1200 is the worst pillion bike in the world though so now looking at a K1100RS for those two up days out !
