Just returned from my first proper outing on the R. Only 1000 miles but enough to know I've definitely made the right choice. The trip was out to my holiday home in Normandy, France so I know the roads quite well. The R1200R is vastly superior to my old R1100s. I was going round long sweeping bends with so much more confidence, the tyres just seemed to be stuck to the road. The seat was good for 320 miles in a day, and the tank range excellent, 250 miles between fill ups. The only 'bad' thing was I found out how useless the mirrors are!!!!!!!
I have a Vtechnik screen I will be fitting soon and the only other change I will be making is fitting some kind of rack to the top box so I can carry a little extra.
