Zitat von wessie im Beitrag #43 I bet you're right and it's going to be awhile before anyone reviews a RS with the optional bars.

Zitat von BEARR im Beitrag #46 In the parts fiche. You have to look at both the R1200 and R1250 fiche. For the grey the 1200 fiche shows the lighter grey and the 1250 shows the darker grey. Edit: I just looked at the 1200 fiche and it shows both the Granit Grey and Asfhalt Grey lids. It also shows red, white and black. The fiche does not show photos of the lids. Lee |

I have not seen any mention if the new LED indicators have the Cruise option for the front and the Multi function for the back. Lee |

Zitat von motorhead1977 im Beitrag #41 Locally among a few BMW (of any model) enthusiasts the joke is the 2023 model might as well be called 2024 due to delivery times. I'm still on hold since order in May for a '22, GS colleague in a similar boat with order in June, another rider sold his reservation on an XR and bought a used one (newer than his model) as the bike wouldn't arrive in any reasonable time. I would take 'spring' delivery with a grain of salt...
That guy on a red CBR in January people stare at because it's 0C and they're shivering in a car with heated seats - but he's filtering awaaaay!

Well, this is weird - when you go to the BMW Motorrad site and look at the photo of the new RS on the intro page, the front fairing that surrounds the headlights is blue. When you go to the "Configurator" section, the front fairing shows at white. Wonder what that's all about? Would hate to order one and get the white fairing, as the blue looks really good. |

Zitat von BEARR im Beitrag #51 same thing happens in the UK configurator - the software just overlays the blue graphics rather than use actual photos. The graphic artist has cocked it up and not edited the images properly. Go by the actual photo in the press release.

I'll take the "Press Release" version, please. Don't know why the configurator page shows a white fairing. Somebody goofed...or they have one fairing color (blue) for Europe, and a different one (white) for the US. The BMW Motorrad site states the model shown is the European model...not sure what that means, other than maybe LED turn signals...? |

Zitat von BEARR im Beitrag #54 That note about the Brembo brakes has been on there for a couple years. For awhile it was unsure if the RS and R would ship to the US with Brembo brakes, but they did. As Wessie mentioned the bike with the white nose fairing is not a real picture. When you spin the bike you can see a black object sticking out from the right side of the fairing below the mirror. Also the BMW Motorrad sticker is missing. Lee |

Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #55Zitat von BEARR im Beitrag #54 Good to know...now if I can get my hands on one. Told dealer to order ASAP. One question: Will the tricolor sport option have pannier mounting capability? I don't see any mounting holes/hardware in the photos... |

Zitat von Lee im Beitrag #55Zitat von BEARR im Beitrag #54 To add to the confusion, last year at this time there were pics of the RS, on BMW's site, showing the Hayes calipers. On the Rs, they seem to throw on whatever the factory has at the time.

Zitat von BEARR im Beitrag #58 on the UK configurator, this pack is included in the sport package at zero cost "Pillion Package Inc. with Pack (Sport) Double the riding pleasure for all those who like to enjoy the wind rushing past together. The BMW Motorrad passenger package with a passenger seat and matching rear footrests provides a race feeling for two." Click the i in a black circle to see what is included in each pack

Zitat von BEARR im Beitrag #58 If that's the color you want I would add the passenger seat option. Strapping a bag to the rear pod will not be easy and difficult to avoid scratching it.
