Yes Stick, I would agree with you.
But you are not having £7000 worth more fun because of it. So don't kid yourself.
It's still the same bike with a bit more power....
When I upgrade to the new R1250 I'm sure I would never go back to a R1200 as well, but in the meantime you're still doing exactly all the things I can do on my R1200.
But you've just spent another £7k to do it
That's why I spent £3000 upgrading my existing R1200... it's still a bloody good bike and doesn't deserve selling just because the new kid is on the block, it isn't that big of a step.
... and if you really need all that power above 100 mph, where it makes the most difference, are you really on the right bike anyways?
In my opinion....
