White with black frame. The red/white/blue was my first choice but that combination is only available in a "sport" version that has several choice items deleted. I didn't even see "my" RS because they had not had one in forever. I was talking to the salesman (known for 8 yrs.) about availability and he says "How about this one?" not ten feet from me. They had just uncrated it and put it on the floor. Then it was just a question of making a deal.

Zitat von Duckbubbles im Beitrag #18 best way to buy any vehicle - something from stock that is costing them money, especially if the registration helps them meet a monthly or quarterly sales target so they give you a discount or some extras at a good price.

Many congratulations - I hope you love it as much as I love my '22 RS. Though...I ride in the UK and lean (consistently) 3-4 degrees more to the right. That appears to be counter to other views here, and I'm now a bit worried... |

Yup! My Austin Yellow was sat in the dealers in November costing them money. They were very keen to make a deal. 😁 They sent me a video clip of a walk around and I bought it over the phone. I said I wouldn’t have bothered with the SOS / Alarm and Keyless so the knocked them off the asking price and gave me £1500 more for my trade in than my local dealer. (Since it was /is my third RS I really didn’t need to have a test ride!). As so much in life, timing is everything! |

First ride out on Saturday. Gearbox is miles ahead, had a 2019 1250GS before. Not as roomy as the GS. Have the tubular bars, will have some risers fitted soon. ECO mode is super soft. Can't really see the point. My bike doesn't have ESA so I have a bit of a front wheel dive, just have to adapt learning curve. At some point will upgrade the suspension anyway. Love the handling. |

What ever tyre is that?? It looks like it came off my Astravan or Matchless G2 it’s so squared off! It must be the photo but I think if you lean over any more you will fall off the edge of a cliff! If I had to guess I’d give it a conservative 38-40! 😁 |

Zitat von Duckbubbles im Beitrag #28 Not saying it's not an improvement, but it reminded me of my boss complaining how transferring files over the office network to his laptop was taking so long (we're talking around 1 GB of data) when only a few years ago he was dealing with standalone PCs and floppy discs.
