They even gave me a BMW rug to put her on 🤣

My immediate thoughts (not having ridden her) are:

1. Damn it's tiny!
2. Why on earth are the pillion pegs twice the size of the rider ones?
3. It's gonna be a bitch to remove the Nav prep cradle on this one as the wiring tucks inside the central cowl that houses the radar and dash wiring etc. No obvious easy way to access it.
4. Front of the rear seat can be lifted up even when it's locked into the bike, no idea why.
5. Starting it and listening to it running it's a totally different noise on start and idle. Exhaust is defo quieter than the 1250, even my missus noticed.
6. Key is unneccesarily large 🤣
7. Noticeably lighter to push around.
8. Sport dash, can't wait to use that, merely for sh1ts and giggles

First order of business is to paint or wrap the silver side panels, I've already removed them ready to try and see what the best way to cover them is.

Overall a very happy boy and can't wait to ride it!
