New Member Introductions » Soon to be a R1250Rs owner.

Hello,
Back in June this year I had a couple of test rides on the R1250RS and decided it was the bike for me.
Deposit paid at the end of June and delivery to the UK was quoted some time in September so I was in for quite a wait.
I got a nice e-mail the other day saying the bike was due 2nd week in September so all is going to the original plan which was a relief going by some of the internet chat about no more being made and some orders cancelled.
Not long to go now :-)

Good to know. Ordered early July, was supposed to be finished 2 weeks ago, still 150 “in production”, was starting to get a little worried

Ordered mid-May, still waiting for delivery to Southern California

I think three months is some kind of target for them, they try to keep the order/deliver latency within that.

Well I've just bought a used one with 5,000 miles on the clock; showroom condition and still under manufacturer's warranty.
Saved £5,000 on the cost of a brand new one, and rode it home less than a week after deciding I was going to buy it.

Just saying...!

In my neck of the woods (SE EU) there were some good used offerings but in that mile range, good condition, and comparable in terms of kit to what I ended up purchasing the delta was ~3.000 EUR.
Figured it didn't make that much sense on a bike I hope to use for years and years to come.

Also the sexy white one just arrived as 2022 - no used 1250's in that color scheme :D

The long wait is over and as expected it arrived on time. I picked up my bike on Saturday and wow this machine is amazing :-)
Really looking forward to putting some miles down the road.
Cheers all :-)
