I did some of my training in the early 80s in Charlottesville and put in many miles in the Northern VA area- great riding. I've had many bikes in my 68 years, including a 80 RS, 99 S, and a 2001 and 2008 RT, but the 1250RS really is something special- sportbike power and handling with true all day comfort. You're going to love it!

Thanks! My wife and I grew up in NoVa, but it changed so much since the 60s/70s that we finally moved away. We're closer to Charlottesville than DC now -- a very good thing!
You are so right about the 1250. I wasn't expecting anything different from my previous boxers when the salesman pushed the keys on me, but was immediately hooked by it.
