Hi all, I am new to the site and BMW. I made the fatel mistake of enquiring about the new r1250rt at my local BMW motorrad dealer and ended up placing a deposit on a new 2021 pre built 1250 rt le in the elegance colour. It comes with SOS and spot lights. As it is a pre built machine I got £750 knocked off the list price (checked this on the configurator to confirm). Although I have done my research including posts on this site I have never ridden an rt (current ride is Yamaha GT09) so the dealer has promised an early ride on their demo bike and if I change my mind after the demo ride he will refund the deposit which he has confirmed in writing so can't argue with that. My questions are do you think I got a good deal? no part ex or finance required. How difficult are they to move around under your own steam? I am medium build and no body builder. Having only a 29 inch inside leg will I be able to flat foot with standard seat height? Do you recommend a bmw top box or cheaper after market givi or equivalent? Would you also consider the 3 year servicing package or pay as you go? Sorry for the length of post but thought I would get everything in in one go. Any other advice welcome
