I didn't think the new RT quite lived up to what I was expecting, still very nice, but it still felt a little squat and heavy at a standstill to me.
The single cam RT I had was a great bike which I really enjoyed, it's only problem was it felt like you were ringing it's neck sometimes to get it to overtake with any enthusiasm. That's where the K16 came in, effortless riding with instant overtakes, they are truly fantastic high performance touring bikes which handle perfectly.If you haven't already a test ride is essential because the ride so much lighter than they look. They're only downside I found was the refinement , they were too refined ! I once rode none stop from Derbyshire to North of Edinburgh and at the end of it I didn't feel as though I'd done anything it was so effortless, it left the itch unscratched if you see what I mean?
What's this about Rainbow losing the franchise?


Have you ever followed PBBoxer ;)


Er, yes.

Could try a later, low mileage air cooled 1200RT...
For me I'd avoid the LC until a few years down the line - New model BMWs have a tendency to have teething issues... Which BMW never admit to. The model a few years after always seems to be better.


So, Steve, now that BMW have instructed all riders of the new LC1200RT with DSA to stop riding, and you have proven yourself as capable of seeing into the future, could I please have the 6 winning lottery numbers for Saturday.

So when is this 'Old enough to know better' supposed to kick in?
