New to me K1300r
« on: October 03, 2017, 12:33:46 pm »
I collect my 13 plate K1300R on thursday in black with lots of carbon. Its from a BMW dealer so no worries about warranty.

I come from a bike history of SV650S, Bandit 1200, R1150GSA, S1000R, R1200GSA. I needed garage appeal and to me the K has loads. A nice lot of power but capable load carrier too for long weekends on the continent.

Plenty of info on here to satisfy my curiosity.

The R is just a naughty girl, showing all her nether regions. The S has her full skirt on just giving us a flash of ankle.   :-[
