Keep in mind that if you are used to 4-cyl bikes, the R1100S is a big honk of vibrating, noisy agricultural machinery that you will either learn to love or forever hate. It is worse than any other 1100 or 1150 boxer made due to the higher power and lighter flywheel. If you have never ridden one, do try to take one out for a spin for at least and hour before buying.

The 1200's are much more civilized.
