I have been thinking.

I know that is dangerous but,

As all the new R12 models use virtually the same running gear electrics etc, do all the models suffer the same problems, flat batteries, iffy final drives (in the early ones) , coroded rear light fittings etc.

If so then it is the whole range that should get slatting, not just the 12GS

the only place they get a slating is here AFAICT. never seen any of them, even the allegedly fragile 1200GS, have a problem in dozens of road tests

Yep gotta agree, all bikes have problems (my last one was off the road for nearly 2 months awaiting a front wheel recall!) but it seems the only place to here bad things about the R1200GS is right here, a recent group test in one of the mags had to have a 2nd Tiger as the first one wouldn't start, mind you it still won
