Default Bmw K1200r

yesterday i had one for an hour.Yes ,it was a test ride.İt has a lot of power tork and horsepower,very good brakes.it is less comfy than my fz6 cause i am so tall(7 feet) .Double price of my bike too.After the test bymyself we had two bikes riding,filtering about 30 miles.İt was fun.my bike sounds better and i can be able to catch him.But i can say that BMW bikes are a lot different than japanese bikes.This bike looks like out of science-fiction movies.

There is no way a stock 600 can touch a K1200R with equal riders (straightline). I am glad that you are happy with your bike though. Your Yami is indeed an excellent machine.

I test rode the K1200R Sport. Man I like that thing. It wants to go FAST, and thats it. It hates the twisties.
