1300RT…..

25 Grand he said. Bloody bargain
And that's how much big fancy bikes are these days unless you go down the Chinky route.

So £32k if you got an RT once you’d changed the seats, exhaust , suspension, added 18 spotlights etc etc

Now now.
Tail pipe only on my RT but that's Doc's law on any bike i buy ( oops Jayne buys ). nothing else needed.

So for less than the price of an Ionic 5, whatever that is, I googled it, you can buy a top of the range best sports tourer on the planet? Bargain

But why would you , when you can spend a bit more and get a real tourer. A GOLDWING

Looks good in black, I like how the mirrors fold in now. Shame they didn't shave off some weigh. Yes I like it

Needs a reverse gear option.

I see the brake callipers are badged up "BMW" again. Does that mean they've ditched Brembos again?

Those are the sport brakes, same as on the 1300 GS, they are Brembo, it’s etched on the inside face of the calipers

Really like its looks in black and the view from the dash, the first time i've liked the RT styling, although for my choice of spec would be about 27-28k for a triple black with the main packs on the configurator or £1500 less deducting the radio and upgrade speakers, gulp. Based on that price sadly I'm out.

[MRDDD]

Is it high then lol

 

[littleade]

Basing on what some were quoted for the wankpanzer it could be even higher than high or depending where you live and other personal circumstances the computer might even say no

What does it do, better than the 1250? In real terms, it may be an evolution but as with 1200 to 1250 jump, I cant see it worth losing 12k for as a cost of px’ing a late model 1250 which are superb bikes. Personally, I prefer the 1250 looks.

Well it doesn’t look like it got too close to the fire for a start .
I had an 2005 RT in 2011.
Liked the look of that one but subsequent models just looked worse and worse .
The 1300 looks great . Won’t be buying one though as it won’t be better than my Wing .
