A new twist on R1200 R design...

Post by kbnesbitt »

One of the few motorcycle magazines I pick up on a semi-regular basis is Bike Magazine from England. One of the more enjoyable reads in a less than stellar landscape of moto-mags (if it wasn't for BMW Owners News and Peter Egan articles, I probably wouldn't read most US publications, but I digress...)

I picked up the latest copy (October 2013) at the local bookstore, and there was a picture of a R1200 R that had been...slightly...modified :shock:

Words can't describe it, but here is a picture:

Looks cool. I'd like it better with street tires though. Wonder what it weighs?
