Have progressed from 310GS to R9T over last 18months as a returning biker, before realising R9T (which I really enjoy) is a dry weather bike and not very comfortable after an hour or so. Started looking at 1250 and have arranged test ride at next service, but reading some of the reliability issues here has me hesitating. Realise that there are lots of conflicting opinions, and probably have to tread carefully, maybe look for second hand with more than 1k miles, or 1200, or just stick with R9T and get a comfy seat. Any thoughts?
