man for some reason on the R1200S shot above the mirrors look really goofy, awkward, LARGE.... etc.. maybe its just that shot but man they really suck the eyes in.

Ron..OK since you asked..for me the blue just seems ordinary..nothing special..in that livery it could be just about 'any bike', generic..

I still think the 12S in those BCR colors looks the best of all. Followed closely by the all-black number.

Man it's flat out here!

Looks fine but...I would rather do the BCR colors but with one change...replace Red with Silver...like the BMW Williams F1 Racing Team colors.

It is to motorcycles, what beige is to walls and champagne is to cars and trucks. Yawn. sidebar: I own 4 blue bikes.
