    IMHO the K1200R is ugly in a good way, this thing is just ugly. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, of course.

    I wouldn't say it's ugly it's kinda special in it's own way 😐

    You're so kind.  😀 Maybe it's just the colour?. I still like the K1200R the best of the K bikes. That bike has cool written all over it. I enjoyed my short test ride, and actually started thinking about buying it. I could have started my own little collection of speeding tickets. The 1150 still has a few good years left in in, before I can retire it to the back of the garage. Unless of course some idiot tries to take me out again on the motorway.

    I think we'll get on really well :-). The K1200R is currently the only 4 cylinder bike I would consider buying. Is this not a happy face?[img]https://www.bmwmc.nz/image/Anniversary/K1200R_2.bmp[/img]Excuse the riding gear 🙂

    Actually went into Experience yesterday to look at one as I am well into my second childhood, but then the brain took over and little hammers in my head, started knocking and said “you will kill yourself on that” so now I am looking at an Akrapovic exhaust instead so I can hoon around annoying people  😀

    Excellent!  Can't wait to hear that pipe!Jim, anytime you get the bug, you can take mine for a 250kmh spin.  That should cure it for awhile.How much does BMW want for the pipe?  Yo might want to consider the aftermarket suppliers.  Nippynormans in the UK had it for £459.00 (kinda steep), but there a few suppliers in the States who have it for around US$550The aftermarket titanium slip-on is the same one as BMW sells, the only difference being the badge on the side.http://www.nippynormans.com/images/BMW_R1200GS_slipon2.pdfhttp://www.scribd.com/doc/15906/BMW-Sport-Silencers
