After a long search and a number of test drives I decided on the '12 R1200R Classic. My local dealer made a dealer trade and I'm hoping to have my bike for "BMW Bike Night" at a local establishment next Thursday.
Having ridden a number of other bikes (Ducati, Triumph and (gasp) Harley) the R1200R made my decision an easy one. I'm a little too old to be leaning over the tank and didn't feel like I was giving up (much) along the lines of performance with this bike. And what a beauty....
Can't wait and will post pictures when it finally arrives.
Regards,
Brobeman
