Yes I do love the distance-eating capability of the RS - I wonder how well an R plus the right screen would compare

Back in 2014 I acquired a mint R1200R Anniversary model after many years on a GS.

I thought it would be my forever bike if I sorted it out to suit me.

Seat, panniers, screen, etc.

No chance.

The RS was released in 2015 and I ordered one without seeing it in the flesh, far less try one.

Collected it in June 2015 and I still have it.

Fully sorted in a way the R could never have achieved.

Carpe Diem!

Me too with the 2015 RS - 2005 my first bm was the R1200ST, which I sold this year after the abs pump failure at 40,000miles.

Although my second bikes were the R1200S and R1200R I always wished for an updated ST rather than a GS or RT

Once shown in the press, despite the name change I also ordered 'unseen in the flesh' as a new ST, the 2015 RS

No reason except for the dealership offer I changed to the updates 2017 RS and may get a 2023 RS next year if a better offer turns up.

I wonder if the Red, White and Blue color will replace the White or the Black option?

Motorcycle.com has just published an article regarding the 2023 R1250RS. Likely not enough changes to make you want to trade-in your current RS - unless you are excited to experience the new ECO mode. However, the factory-optional tubular handlebars are a nice touch: https://www.motorcycle.com/new-model-pre...first-look.html

And good luck finding one in the U.S. at the base price of $15,695.

Current motorcycle collection: 2002 Yamaha FZ1; 2020 KTM 390 Duke; 2011 Royal Enfield Bullet 500; 2009 BMW F650GS; 2016 BMW R1200RS; 2018 Zero S 16.6 kWh

I assume that is the Sport option - listed in addition to triple black and light white.

RS updates soon to appear.
https://www.bmw-motorrad.co.uk/en/models...ter/r1250r.html

Its all in the video people .
IIUC seems they have ended the SE configuration with just the bike and then 'packs' + individual extras in the configurator - three colour choices and you cannot have some combinations e.g. heated and sports seat .
UK configurator is not updated yet but Norwegian one is in English.

I like the new color schemes but the "tripple black" writing is kind of stupid. Reminds me of Spinal Tap

I'm not crazy about the Triple Black decals. I think the Triple Black would look better with the small black plastic engine spoilers compared to the larger silver metal spoiler.
I wonder if the decals are under the clear coat? Sometimes there under the clear and sometimes they're on top.

I like the idea of heated seats and the extra lighting of the new turn signals.
The tubular black bars look nice. I would like the extra width but not sure I would like sitting up more.

I wonder if our 2022RS has a plug already for the heated seat?

I had quite a bit of mine apart to run an extra wire to the rear signals, and I didn't see any extra, blanked off plugs. I wonder if it'd be possible to get the new heated seat (at some absurd price) and wire it to the ezcan.
