After three and a bit years with the 899 and saving my pennies I now have enough to buy a new RT so I've been playing on the configurator. I will wait until March (delivery) for the order, but you can never over prepare for these things .
Holy cow, what rubbish colour choices unless you want to spend £1,565 on the 'special' colours, with selecting one of these on an LE and ticking the Radio and Dynamic options you get to a heady £19,640 and that doesnt include the top-box Not sure I fancy white though. I realise this is well into K1600GT territory and may want to try one to discount it but really dont want the 6'er (apart from the sound).
Questions on my mind at the moment :
Feel free to point out any other useful information, apart from saying its daft to spend that much on a new bike

Questions on my mind at the moment :
- Am I right to expect some compatibility issues for Bluetooth if I go for the Radio Setup (I have a Schuberth SRC system)
- If I dont get the Radio, can I still plug in my phone in the cubbyhole in the dash and get music via the Nav ? (today I use a USB lead from the Garmin cradle on a 590LM but assume that would be different on the RT). Music is really important for me on a ride, so I need to at least know whats possible.
- Anyone know the list price of a top-box and the cost to colour match ?
- Any rumours to 2018 updates ?
- I wont be ready to order for a couple of months, but any recommendations on BMW dealers ? Pidcocks is my local, but last time I went in there they had an approach to negotiation that didnt really work for me.
