Good day all!
Picked up a fully loaded 2023 R1250RT Triple Black a couple of weeks ago. Someone had purchased it, put 1500 miles on, then swapped it out for a 1300GS - and I'm grateful he did! I'm a longtime BMW boxer owner, but this is my first RT. Loving it so far (as is the wife, who finds it much more comfortable than previous bikes). I added a low seat and BMW top case - probably going to be swapping out the screen for a sportier one soon too. But beyond that, no big mod plans. It came with the Akra end can, so I saved a bunch there. Previous owner also added some wider pegs and Clearwaters (which I'm still on the fence about).
Looking forward to racking up some miles and catching up on all the information posted here.
Best,
Nathan
