Looks as if the R1200GT has the K1600 tracking headlight, among other items.

I think Curve already started this rumor?
A reason to hold off on the water GS? Hmmm.

Around here, with our winter visitors I barely go to 4500 rpm in gear, before shifting. I'm lucky if street traffic goes above 40.

Highway traffic in the HOV lane kicks ass @ 80-90 but street traffic stinks.

Too big and heavy (looking at least) to my taste. The RT seem to get bulkier each new generation. They'll soon grow extraneous wheels

What's funny is that most folks wouldn't notice or care if it weren't for the stealth paint job that says, "Hey everbuddy, look at me!"
