It's only the Mk2 (RWB) that is extra-tall.

Fitting a "cooking R1100s" seat - makes a hell of a difference.

as pretty as the RWB one is it was a mass production whereas the first BCR was a limited run of a 1000 bikes worldwide so I guess that's what adds to the collectability Chris.

They'll all end up being collectable, mass production's never slowed the R90S's collectability.

Boxercup numbers?

Postby Robinyuill » Sun Nov 08, 2015 4:56 pm

Read the MCN article and as the owner of a RWB 2004 bike I have always wondered how many of the types were produced. Anyone have an idea of the numbers? Regards Robin.
