I'm an RT owner--had an 1100 RT back in '02, now I own an 1150--and I'm just curious about the speed and performance of a K1200GT--wondering if I should make the switch to it, or something like it (the FJR 1300 perhaps?). Is there anyone who would be willing to allow me to ride their GT for a few miles to see how it feels? Currently I'm in East Lansing, Michigan, but usually I'm in northern Michigan--Petoskey.

If there are any curious GT owners who would like to test out the RT, please feel free to contact me.

Thanks,
Matthew

If there are any BMW dealers in the hood they will let you take one, pay for the gas and say Thank You when you are done. Doesn't get much better.

Hood defined as one day's drive including coming and going.

If you do decide to get an FJR, be aware that the early models throw a lot of heat up to their riders. I believe the '06 model was the first one to have this fixed. You can check that out on the FJR board.

Good luck on finding a "tester."
