Please don't turn your backs on me
« on: February 08, 2014, 08:39:35 AM »
I love my K75S but I'm thinking of buying an R1200GS. If space and finance allow I'll keep my K but . . .
What I want to know is, is there a similar site to this wonderful resource for R riders?
I can feel your disapproving stares . . .

Yo!
Just found the very site I'm looking for so you can ignore me. Still like to know your thoughts on getting an R though.
Cheers,
Andy

There's absolutely nothing wrong with R-series. There is nothing wrong with ANY bike a person likes. Only important thing is that the person rides...  :)

My friend has a 2011 R1200GS Adventure & likes it apart from finding the seat uncomfortable on long trips,personally I prefer my K100RS:its all down to what suits you.

In reality there are too few of us to be a house divided. Besides I think that most people are like me in that I'm just as happy riding a Honda mini-trail as I am riding the LT. We are part of an unspoken brotherhood. (Cue William Wallace speech).

I have an R1200GSA alongside my K1100RS in the garage. Have a look at "UKGSer.com" for related info on the GS.

Hi guys,
Whenever my wife sees a bunch of riders she always calls them "The Brothers". Its a Worldwide brotherhood of bikers. Who cares what you ride as long as you're on something with 2 wheels and an engine. What was that Tuco? Cue William Wallace speech? Wasn't he that hairy Scot in a dress who got it stuck to him by the English?
If I'm lucky I'll keep the K aswell as the R. Keep 'er lit!
