Spec:-
ZZR1200 silver July 2002, 3000 miles, never seen rain, complete with Scottoiler and Datatool alarm £6000.

My first post, newbie to list & GS but not to Biking or Bee-ems.

Ordered mine yesterday after 1 1/2 hr test ride.

Absolutely brilliant! Test bike had bad screen rattle and dodgy fuel gauge.

Red/Black/Black with Tank bag & heated grips as extras (UK).

Still considering Panniers & the £65 fibreclass covers for the rocker boxes.

Got mine

Got mine three weeks ago - Blue/black/black, with spokes, hot grips and the alarm.

I was extremely lucky in the whole process... Ordered it one day, was told I'd have to wait around 10-12 weeks, and then the very next day got a call from the dealership saying someone had backed out on a similarly-equipped bike, and that if I wanted it I could have it.

Since that fateful day, I have put over 3400 miles on the bike

Pics

For some reason I have a ban on posting images.

So you can download these two shots from my site. They were taken at the stealership as I was trading my Dakar for the R1200GS - nice, nostalgic pics of the old and the new.

Unfortunately, my camera's battery decided to bail on me, which means those are the only digipics I have so far. I bought a disposable camera for my trip, but I have to finish the film, develop it, scan it, etc. Digicam has been duly disciplined - should be alright for future use.

Thanks for the pics! Looks quite good! If you have more pictures, especially from the side (where you can see the full extent of blue-black-black-spokes) I'd really like to see that
