R1200S Review

Postby Neil178 » Wed Mar 29, 2006 7:50 pm

in full in next weeks MCN.
They have ridden it already as they were going to print.
There is also a review of most 2006 bikes. The S is listed with no verdict yet, although the paper commited to giving it a mark of 7 out of 10. Looking at other bikes and their scores I was left with the feeling that it didn't impress them that much. Hope I'm wrong on that.

At least MCN now recognise that BMW make bikes. A few years ago they would never feature a BM of any sort!

Let me guess...

'Quirky'
'Weird'
'Lacks feel'
'Reliable, maintenance-free shaft drive'
'Superb finish & build quality'
'Stupid indicators'

Cynic? Naaaaa.....
