Blimey a Beemer I wouldn't mind owning! I always had a soft spot for the old model, but this is definitely growing on me

Greatly improved engine, but nowhere near as pretty as the outgoing 1100S, particularly in Boxer Cup colours.

Still, 120bhp should be a lot of fun.

I like the new beemer but it does need to be the red and silver as opposed to all silver.It does require the look to be broken up a little. Not as quirky looking as some beemers and not an all out rocket, but with the right rider those babies can shift!

Saw a K1200S on an 06 plate parked up yesterday. Actually turned my head - I normally hate the look of beemers. This one looked great I thought.

much appreciation of that bike form this corner but do find the £310 paint job to be a source of extreme comedy, it looks like it was attacked by paint brush weilding Labradors

I personally thought the new F800 looked minging in standard form until I saw this, which I think looks great in boxer cup colours
