Re: The R1200R as a first bike.

What a great community! All the comments are very helpful and shed some light on things I didn't think about. The decision is to find a used motorcycle in the 500cc - 800cc range (cruiser/standard bike). The R1200R is something I will come back to in the near future. My son is interested in getting ...
