Will the RS see a surge in sales and if so will there be enough supply?
#1
With the extensive TV coverage of the funeral of HM Queen Elizabeth II, motorcycle lovers could not help but notice that escort duties performed by the Metropolitan Police used BMW R12xx RSs. One could not help but be impressed with these machines as they were expertly piloted by riders who knew what they were doing. Yes there were a few other models but the footage I saw seemed to mostly feature the nimble RSs, but there were some RTs as well.

   

   

Here is a video too (not from the funeral):



I can't help but wonder if there would be any impact on sales of the RS and if so would BMW be able to fulfil the demand. Still irks me that this model is not pushed more, and by BMW themselves.

Heck even when it comes to the driveshaft housing "fix" the RS is not mentioned even though the housing and shaft (and therefore the problem) is the same! Oh, I forgot ... there is no problem. Rolleyes
