Anyone tempted to have their 1200 done?





Al

Sweet, ... I'll have the Randy Mamola at the bottom. Just add Muffs and MFI wardrobe for a topbox, .. sorted.

Nice - but nothing like the real thing eh??

Fair point

If I ever progress (is it progress? ) to an R1200s - I'd be very tempted to get it painted in one of the BCR colours. Right now - I'm erring towards the Red/White/Blue

Al

I like the top one.The Mamola rep isn't as imposing.
Bailey.

I think that what the 1200s needs, is a killer paint job, I know there is the colgate job, but that don't float my boat. But if they do a factory BCR type paint job........well......maybe

Steve

As little a job as it would be, white indicators on the mamola one would very likely improve it loads.

Hmm

...today I drooled away when I saw this one...
...already sold (no...not to me...), but still in the showroom...

...the colour is Pacificblue (BoxerCup blue)...
...and in real it looks far, far better than in the picture...



...wave discs, full Laser system, all kind of carbon bits and pieces, matt black wheels, Öhlins, etc.etc...

I like that - a lot.

A good exmaple of 'keep it simple' - solid colours, plenty of understatement with that small, enticing flash of yellow cleavage on the Ohlins rear shock.

Nice colour scheme

The problem with going for the red/white/blue BCR colours would be if BMW suddenly did a Powercup version.

Let's face it, if any of our 1200s owners had their bike painted in either of the schemes - we'd all be around it at the annual Boxertrix meet, stroking the curves, taking pics and checking it out from all angles.

(hang on - I think that was Beyonce I was talking about there )



Al

I'll take the blue and white BCR one please. These loose the blue cylinder heads and add a solid blue bellypan
Hang on, i've already got one that looks like that.

As someone has already said (and not wanting to offend anyone who has bought one already ) if BMW did introduce a killer paint job I would be very tempted down the 1200S route. Shallow I know but hey...............I spend more time looking at the bloody thing than I do riding it so at least it may as well look the dogs doodaghs

As opposed to Beyonce, who you'd spend more time.....................

Al, do I detect a certain fondness for one Miss Beyonce????
