New to me 2014 R1200RT...coming soon to my garage

Post by crazycanuck »

Well, I pick it up on Saturday....not very nice here in Toronto, so will be trailering it home....but looking forward to the first ride and getting to know the new ride.


I do need a top box, wondering on reco's, I will do a search on the forum for suggestions.


Couldn't afford a new RT, so been waiting for some used 2014's to come out....this one was purchased new in October of 2014, so I get two full riding seasons of warranty, which is nice.

Enjoy the new ride,
Several options on top cases
From 28L to 49L
Check EBay
I found the smaller case best suited my needs

Ideally, it would be best to have both topcases.  I only have the 49 liter one and it is perfect when I have my wife as a pillion but I would prefer the smaller for my usual daily commute.  If you do mostly two up, get the big one.  It is great to be able to lock away two helmets in it. 


The "spring" thus far in Canada looks highly variable. ::) [size=78%]  As a Canadian biker living in the UK, I love being able to ride nearly all year.  Enjoy your ride.  The new LCs look amazing.  I just traded up from a 2003 1150RT to a 2013 1200.  Really loving it thus far.  [/size]
