New Member Introductions » Hello from Vancouver Island

Hi
New to this forum but not new to BMW or RS. I have had a 1978 R100 with an RS faring, a 1999 R1100 RS and a 2016 R1200 RS. Will pick up my new R1250 RS in 2 weeks. How can you go wrong with a BMW RS. I plan to ride this one for 3 years and if I can still ride, (I am 72) I will trade it on a new one. For the guys in their 70's I think this is a good bike. Light weight, comfortable and adequate power.

Hello from New Brunswick!

Welcome.

I visited your island many years ago. Great place.

I am also 72, 5'11" and 180 lbs. The R1200RS I have had for 4 1/2 years is a great bike and is easy to handle in every situation. It seems to take more effort to get it on the center stand than I remember from the past. That is my biggest complaint.
