... And I'm a addicted to the R1200R. Nice to meet you.
Just closed the deal on my black R1200R. I've been lurking here for a few weeks. Now that the deal is done, I thought I'd give you all a proper "Hello."
Lord give me the strength to accept the things I cannot change (like the onboard computer) and farkle the crap out of everything else.

She's still in a crate
I'm gonna pick her up on Monday. No biggie, it'll give me one last weekend with my Triumph.
Pics will be coming soon.

Hey Rich! Nice to see a familiar face.
I'm itching to get on the new bike. Monday can't get here fast enough.
Have a great weekend - I'm off to rack up some miles on the Bonnie before I let her go.

Welcome Nathan!
Just as everone said, the 1200R will blow you away. It is all that, and then some. Wait till you get a few thousand miles on it, the engine just keeps getting better.
Enjoy it, try to keep the front wheel on the ground, and post some pics!

Well boys, picked her up yesterday. Logged 200 miles. Can't say enough good things about the bike. I told a friend it was better than sex. I'm pretty sure I meant it. She handles beautifully everywhere, and at any speed.
Parked her in the garage after a day of riding and sat there staring. I sat there for over an hour. I cried a little.

Looking SHARP!!!!
I see you got the 108.5 horse power model.
The pin striping gives you that extra half to give you the full 109HP.

hahahahahaha
Seriously, it looks great. ENJOY and ride safe.
