Welcome to the forum.
I look forward to the reports of the new 1250s.

My dealer does not have any in the showroom yet. BMW announced only for the end of March!

Welcome here

4h ago i have visited my Dealer to Drink a Coffee.
During Coffeetime he said, that a GS Order from a Customer with the Option 719 Engine Parts has postponed from 01/19 to 02/19.

BMW was surprised how many Customer ordered the Option 719 Parts ..., okay i am one off those Peoble

He also said that the first R1250RS will not be there before March.
I hope i will get my RS in 05 and that there will be no delivery Problems because of the Option 719 Parts.......

Hi, I live in Essex but we've just bought a flat in Antrim and I intend to use it as a base to visit some of the great race meetings you have such as the NW200 and Ulster GP.
Any thoughts on the best ferry crossings? They all seem expensive even the shortest route via Larne/Belfast to Cairnryan.

Tommo I wouldn't use the ferrys a lot but they are very expensive, in fact I would say they are a rip off probably because there are only two ferry companies who operate between NI and Scotland so they can charge what they like. Holyhead - Dublin or Liverpool - Belfast. The NW200 and the Ulster GP are both great events as are some of the smaller road races particularly Armoy. I hope you enjoy your stays over here but lay off the fake tan before you come over we are quite pale over here and your Essex Boy Tan may stand out a little
