Just wanted to say hello. Joined the forum a few weeks ago as I was planning to buy a 2015 RT.

Bought bike on Sunday 1st March, joins my 12 year old GS in the garage.

Everybody's buying fast grey ones. There must be some truth in the rumour.  Welcome to the forum.

Hi Ant
Nice bike- it looks well in grey. I changed my grey one for an ebony black one. (Apparently it's metallic plum coloured, but it looks black to me).

Nice looking bike and welcome. Wish I had a grey one ;-) although my R1200RT is almost grey.
