Their 1100S looks mityfine to me...but the green/silver 1200 is a bit too much isn't it?

I'm glad BMW doesn't turn'm out that way from the factory. Only nice things are the mirror extensions and the wheels(not tin this color though). Am going to testdrive a R1200R again next saturday with the suspension better set up to suit my weight and then probably will start thinking long and hard about trading in the S for the new R1200R. Two things are sure though, the brakes are absolutely awesome and I will never fit any of the AC Schnitzer bodyparts.

Thanks Ron. Have you seen the granite grey metallic bike in the flesh Ron as my dealer only has the black and the silver one. If you have please tell me what you think of the color. I think that the mat granite grey is the best color in the brochures but haven't seen it in real life. It's the color in the pic below. If I get one it will be in this color I think(and probably with the R1200R lettering removed witch is pretty easy the dealer insured) with the lifestyle package.

...YEP ; I saw the bike in granite grey in real...



...by far the best looking color !
...good choise !!



...but please go for a smaller exhaust ; the stocker is HUGE...

Yeah although I do plan on going out of the country more for trips on the BMW and for German trips stock cans are probably best. I aint going to fit the all out loud system like on the S anymore but something with EU certification and removable baffle for at home. I like the Remus Powercone model very mutch but only have seen pictures though. Thanks for the comments on the color and I'm sure this is the best now. I've seen a similar color on a F800ST(?) and it looked great. Realy reflects the light in a very cool way due to the matt finish.


Hope the Remus logo can be removed as I don't like it in the picture.

...on the F800 the color is darker...

Thanks Ron they told me that but it should be pretty close and with the same matt finish. But as I don't realy like the bright silver one or the black one('cause there's no contrast between the black bits at the front fender and the rear etc.) the granite would be the one.
