Looks good! I have been thinking of using Dye or paint to make a black sports shield...I think I see one on that darkwhite special.

That is the best looking R1200R I've seen since I laid my eyes on my pinstriped 07' on the showroom floor. :mrgreen:

I want, but not sure if I would pay the sticker price for it. Add in bags, touring screen and taxes you'll be pushing 20k easy.
Beauty though, some black spoked wheels would put it over the top.

Very sexy, and I'd be just fine with the cast black wheels (could forget about brake dust for longer periods..)

If anyone wants to buy me one I'm all ears..

Had my sports screen painted the same saphire black metallic as my 90th and I really like the look!

I used plastic paint to paint the inside of my sports screen. Bought the paint at a hobby shop. Krylon makes a plastic paint that bonds to plastics and supposedly needs no prep.
