Hello from France

Post by jclaudej »

I am 66 old age and I ride since I am 16 old.
Today I ride my R1200GS LC of 2017 but I change it during the end of this month for R1250RT of 2019.
I love my GS but my wife prefer 1250RT because this bike is more in relation with our using because 95% of the time we ride together and the protection against the wind is better especailly for long travel.

Sorry for my bad English langague, but I hope find every information for improve my knowledge of this bike.

:-D jclaudej

Your options make complete sense to me... A radio and speakers on a motorcycle are (to me) about as useful as an emergency stop button on a golf club.
Cheers from Australia.
