Can't believe my wife agreed to this, but today, she approved, authorizied, and supported me buying a BMW R1200RT motorcycle.

Sorry guys, you can't have her. She is mine.

I got the dark grey color, it matches my titanium grey e60.

I will take pictures later for all to see.

Congrats on you new bike A really nice one, and you got a nice wife!

I have been thinking of buying the new K 1200 S.

My 525i doesn't give me any speed kicks as my old K1 used to do.
(See my controls.)

Should I buy a larger flat or a bike?

To heezy545i:
"Don't know that much about bmw bikes, so what other bikes/brands does this compare to?"

Not many bikes can compare with BMW. I.e. the R 1200 RT is a sports bike with a boxer engine and superb long distance features.
The K 1200 S can be compared to Honda CBR 1100 XX Blackbird and Suzuki GSX 1300 R Hayabusa.
The BMW K 1200 S won both these Japanese bikes in a resent test I read.
