That's you! And then you will at least own a poser brick. Check the color of the final first, though.

Have you ever seen one in person? IMO the K12RS "taxi" color scheme is one of BMW's best ever - along with the R Dakar color scheme.

There was one down at National Powersports for a while. It's probably still there it's so ugly.
Check this one out though:

I think the color is atrocious.
Regarding the bike, I posted it because I see ads for 93 RSs for 4500ish....this bike is next gen, low miles and going for the same.
Food for thought.
You won't find me on another BMW for a long time, if at all. I simply cannot afford it.

I might be mistaken, but don't the K1200RS bikes have servo brakes?
This was BMW's version of power brakes, right? But not needed at all.
My 2 fingers on the front brake do just fine. Without the complications.
Also, I have a weird taste in bikes- I do not like handlebar mounted mirrors. Period.
