-- 20K Update --
Well, after 20K miles, I am happy to say that I am still very satisfied with my R1200R. I haven't found any other motorcycle I would even consider trading mine in on yet. (Yes, the wife still loves hers too) As expected, the BMW has been flawless in the reliability department. Whether you want to take a leisurely ride in the country, or a spirited ride on the twistiest roads you can find, this bike is more than equal to the challange. Although the R1200R did not seem to get some of the press of the other performance motorcycles out there, I would have to say for real world, everyday riding, it's hard to beat. The only negative thing I can say is the wind protection is a bit lacking. But hey, it's a naked bike, what do you expect, get the hand warmers... What do you have to lose? Go take one for a test ride. Go on the twistiest road you can find and don't be afraid to push it past 4500rpm coming out of the corners, It will pleasantly surprise you with more than enough torque.
