So is this your new bike or a loaner while your getting work done??

How do you find the big bus RT??

Still look a them and think could I live with such a big bike...........

What do you think of it Steve? Faster than the 1100s?

My KGT is in for 24k service, I was going to have the S1000RR but apparently all the recent ones are on recall cos someone at the factory didn't torque the conrods up properly or summat, so the demo one is off road until it's fixed.

So they were giving me the K1300S instead but the weather was so foul I asked for the RT instead.

First impressions, a LOT smoother than the boxer cup, uses more juice than the KGT, is a LOT lighter than the KGT, in fact feels suprisingly light and is better at slow work, but nowhere near as powerful at the higher speed stuff.

Better screen, and less clunky gearbox than the GT.

Not really, but then the RT is 110hp and the BCR is 98 so theres not a lot in it, and the RT has a barn door attached. Nice bike tho' and I can see why they're so popular
