Hey everyone, after lurking here for several months I am the proud new-to-me owner of a 2020 Imperial Blue 1250RS. I came off an Aprilia Caponord Rally (awesome bike) and previously rode a mix of cruisers and sport bikes. Thanks to everyone for the valuable insight on these boards and I hope to soon contribute myself!

My bike came with 2500 miles and was pretty stock aside from Helibar risers. I removed those since I don't mind a bit of reach (I'm 6'1"). Thus far I've added the Moto X-Head cylinder covers and Evotech radiator guard. A Leo Vince exhaust can is on order (Euro 4 version), and I am currently looking at possible windscreen upgrades.

My riding buddy is also on an RS, but he is the only other RS owner I know in San Diego. Anyone else on the board from around here?
