Enjoy your new bike! Did you go with the standard or tubular handlebars?
Don’t forget to post a few pictures.

How do you post pics on here.

I got a BMW letter yesterday for the 1250R and the 1250RS, if you configure them both, it’s surprising how little difference in cost between the two it really is.

And WTF is £120 extra for a pillion set-up

If you choose the single seat option on the Sport trim you don't get pillion footrests. If you then added them back in for £120, you would have the option of the cowl or the pillion pad depending on your planned use.

Excellent

If you don’t like it, I’ll take it off your hands for a small fee.

ENJOY

Its a great bike, enjoy. I can recommend some 'improvements' if you like, just let me know, i've had my 1250 for over a year now and love it, very underrated and lack of marketing from BMW mean there are not that many around

My wife’s current RS went back on Friday. Now she’s eagerly awaiting the new one coming on Saturday.

It’ll be her 3rd RS. Before the RSs she had an R, but being only 2 foot and a tab end she has short arms and found the bars a bit of a stretch on full lock on the R.

We’ve done plenty of tours covering 2,500 miles in two weeks and never had any issues with luggage carrying ability or comfort.

It's a no cost option on the Sport. Mine is coming in April
