Sweet... Now you just need to find me either a K1200R or an R1200R. Preferably the R1200R.

Yea, that's a lot of jack for an 07 with 4k on it.

I've got a line on an 08 with less than 1K for around 10 grand. It is the fully loaded model also.

I actually started appreciating it a bit as I rode it more. Still wasn't my cup of tea but I can see the appeal. The buyer didn't make it back Sunday to pick it up, flying down tomorrow afternoon and riding it home. Pretty cool to have a businessman fly into a private airport with his lovely wife, take the bike for a spin around the parking lot and buy it on the spot, then climb back in his plane and fly off.

Sounds like a comfortable lifestyle, that would be a bit surreal to see first hand, I would imagine.

One last shot, heading out to meet the new owner at Eagle Creek Airport.



He jumped out of his buddy's plane, put on a rainsuit and hit the road home to Flint. Brave man, riding an unfamiliar bike into a rain storm for a 350 mile trip!

That man is a god. Think you'll hear from him again?

I just traded for one to save space on a Military move, but it's not quite my style. I hope by seeing the gusto here it won't be to difficult to get rid of.

The oil fill hole on the left head has a slight ridge around it.
Yep it catches rain water and the cheap 3 cent plastic cap
can let water in.
Aother pleasing quirk is a high oil level on a cold day ( with a
rubber gasket that has gotten hard) can cause the oil sight
window to blow out of the engne case when you start
the bike.
