The Australian media outlet Bikesales has named the R1250RS its best sports tourer for 2020 and it was in the running for the best bike overall. With the new S1000XR, it came just behind some sort of KTM in the final round.

https://www.bikesales.com.au/editorial/d...1250-rs-127742/ has their review of the RS. Looks rather nice in the "special" edition black.

https://www.bikesales.com.au/editorial/d...summary-127772/ summarises the overall results.

Must agree that �special edition� does look sharp with gold stripes matching the forks .

Agreed. Pity the street sign ruined the shot.

It was camouflaged by the bike's color scheme...........
