I wanna Live 'til I die!

Hell HAS frozen over...
I talked to Chris Geuting a couple of days ago and he has sold (traded in) his R1100S in order to buy a 2009 R12R....
Now he owns an R12S and an R12R... it seems as though, he could not be happier... Times are changing, it seems...

Well, that's one way to get decent bags on your bike.

Yes. He's actually a pretty funny guy if you get to know him.

Don't be modest, kieran. Aussies rule. Everybody knows that.

yeah right...i do like the way the R12R looks, and I like the tank shape, but the S is a better bike all the way around, unless of course you want to ride around with someone on the back, which I don't.

It would look real cool with a GP type exhaust can. Can someone photoshop an example on to a left side shot of Bob's 12R. Bob, I don't think you've posted such a shot as of this date. I know it would not allow the oem bags.
