Afternoon,
What makes a R1200RT "triple black"? Mine is midnight black with black engine, gearbox and rear drive, is it just black wheels which make it triple black?

Cheers

...and the RT decal on the nose.

I did have a couple of dark RT's, but am very pleased with my current white example.

This is the triple black that caught my eye when I was having my GS serviced.

Cheers,
Looks like I'll be getting my wheels redone as they're getting a bit edgy in black come the tyre change for that triple black look

Unlike BMW, don't forget the black wheel balance weights too.

I'd have them painted Gold if I got a Triple Black. Which I probably will when I'm a little older :lol:

Go for it but don't forget the wheel weights.
