Tubeless spoked wheels possibly. Different bend on the headers and maybe smaller diameter ? If it has a QS l’m a potential buyer

Yes, Tubeless.
Those wheels or very similar wheels have been available for a couple years.
They're different than the cross spoke GS wheels.
I missed the different bend of the header pipes.
The original R9T tubed wheels that were incompatible with tubeless tyres - sheer madness by Motorrad - was the chief reason why I quite my late 2017

Option 719 R9T, although in many other respects it was a lovely machine to own. I do like the new look of the swept-back headers...

I spy a multi-function wheel on the left bar and an SOS button on the right, but it is too dark behind the gear lever to spot a quick-shifter linkage in this photo. That said, the bike is in the Heritage Range and supposedly harks back to the good old, and simpler, days of limited technology. It has the look of a Ducati Scrambler about it now..........

Oddly enough, I find the seat on my 2014 R9T to be a little more comfortable than that on my R1200R!

You have the standard seat for that year model on your R, Tom? I’ve always had the High seat option on mine (stock on the RS and now in the 1250) - suits my stature better and has an acceptable depth of padding. I’d think the lower seat would be a bit light on in that respect.
Yes, standard seat. I admit, the most continuous seat time I've had on my R9T is maybe 2 hours, but it always felt fine, whereas I'll begin to feel an ache with the R even at 2 hours sometimes.
Dammit that’s the headlamp I want for my R12R
