BMW R1200R R1150R/T F800 K1200R R1100R/T R1250R RnineT Message Board

Hi guys , I was a lurker but now I've exposed myself. This is the first new technology bike that I have ever owned. I enjoy the boxer twins and have a few older models that I restored and ride.

I have the fast colour ever produced a white R12. 2010 model , I know black comes a close second.

While a naked bike is cool , I really wanted to have a bikini fairing on the bike to take the edge off the wind , much like an R100S. I ordered a WUDO because the lines follow and suite the bike. I dumped Wudo's screen because it was crap, I had my own screen made and with this set up I still have the wind feeling but none of the wind buffering that I would get from riding my old RT...amazing , this at speeds over 1??km (not all the time, these were test runs)

Also, without going into an indepth story I ended up with a complete Staintune exhaust system.....thank you Staintune....it rocks!

I'm about just under 6'3" and needed to change the seat, so I picked up a BMW High Comfort seat, thats the only downer with this bike is for guys like me the stock seat is a pain in the ass, mind you the high seat is better but not the ants pants , so I will later on customize the stock seat I have.

I'm hoping this works as I dont know how to post photos but I will put these links in of my
bike(s)

Welcome aboard -- But you don't think we'll actually believe you won't be taking a spin on that RS on a pleasent weekend morning. When people ask me what was the prettiest BMW my answers is always a Blue 1977 RS, and that's a nice one.

Welcome from another owner of the fastest color! I also am liking the RS. I am dating myself, but I remember when those came out. They were quite a jump in technology with that fairing and that Rennsport Blue was always one of my favorites.

Welcome to the forum!
Stef.

All you get is what screen do I fit and the seat is no good. F**K
