Bet ya can buy a 'busa and an SV650, and bags for the SV, and still have change in your pocket. That is my guess.....

Now that BMW (hopefully) has a true sportbike in the line-up how long before they intro a great sport tourer. The Yamaha gets great reviews and I've only heard good things from owners. Heck, you never see used ones for sale and there are tons of used K1200RS/K1200GTs out there. The new K1200S could be a good basis for something to compete with this:

OK, now that the K12R and K12S are available I'm drooling for what will be the K1200GT, K1200ST or K1200RT. I'm thinking of a K1200S with upright bars, lower pegs and a taller screen. Bags more like the hexheads and cruise control are a must. Am I just dreaming or will they build it? Or perhaps I'm desribing the F800GT, F800ST or F800RT. Maybe it will look like this:

There have been spy photos of a K12 fitted with RT style bodywork.

Yummy. :D
