New Member Introductions » Hello from Norway

Hi all,
After a frustrating pandemic time, i needed some happiness. Result: I ordered a brand new 2022 BMW R1250RS Sport. I will pick it up at the dealer around Easter, which is the start of the motorcycle season here in the cold northern. This will be my first BMW, and i hope i made the right choice for replacing my lovely Triumph Tiger 1050 Sport (2018). I registered at this forum to find and share tips and tricks related to my new bike.
What i have ordered:
2022 BMW R1250RS Style Sport (White)
- Performance Pack (all inclusive)
- Option 719 Billet Pack Shadow I (Black cyl.head / engine cover)
- Sport Seat
- BMW Navigator VI
- OEM passenger grip (will remove original rack)
- SW-Motech Street-Rack with tail softbag
- SC-Project X-Plorer II Slip-On (carbon)
- Wunderlich TFT glare shield
- TFT display protective film

Welcome to the forum, great choice of bike.
Wish I was back there again but ........last few years have been travel limiting for us all.
I assume you work for the Norwegian tourist board like everyone else I met in your friendly country?
Enjoy the bike and the empty roads,

Thank's, i can't wait to start the new season with new bike :-)

Yes, southwest area is great - Kristiansand to Kristiansund and although I have done the tourist stuff (arctic circle/lofoten/trollstigen/Odda and Atlantic coast road, although the new Panorama route, Lote to Stryn is better) it is those off-route roads, still tarmac but 1 or 2 hours with no traffic we never get here in southwest England that I remember mostly.
Those little inlets along from the Lindesnes up to the wooden houses hidden under the rock at Helleren and Jossingfjord.
Area from Evje, road 9 to Rysstad up to the Vemork heavy water plant and the museum is worth a visit for Telemark Heroe fans / Saboteurs new version for payimg your respects.
Did the Laerdal tunnel but the trip 'over the top' via the stegastein is better, although you may have to wait a while for the winter roads to open.
Love the free camping, leave the country as you found it, although plenty of camping and hytte opportunities everywhere if the weather reminds you who is in charge!

Congratulations on the new bike. I'd love to ride in Norway someday.

The lower part of the Option 719 cylinder head cover appears to have a plastic replaceable part if you have a parking lot drop.
Is that correct?
