Hello from Central Texas

[Grumpy Goat]

Hello. I just registered, proud owner of a new-to-me 2018 R1200RS. I also own a 2013 Yamaha Super Tenere and a 2008 KTM 450 EXC that I've motarded. I had a 2005 Yamaha FZ1 previous to the Tenere. I look forward to learning more about my new ride from the forum.

Welcome to the Forum and BMW R1200RS ownership. I am sure that you will find that it is a whole different beast from anything you own/ed thus far. From its unique boxer sound to its handling, including at slow speed, and great stability.

I do like the Super Tenere and the FZ1, the latter of which I test rode one day when it popped up in my radar as a possible second bike. The KTM I had to Google to see what it was:



Regarding the Forum - this is an offshoot of the website RSWasserboxer.com, which is dedicated to the R1200 / R1250 water-cooled BMW RS boxers. Readers are encouraged to contribute articles, DIY repair / maintenance projects, etc. I want both the website and the forum to be more technically focused when compared to other forums, but at the same time be a valuable one-stop resource for the bike. However casual reading and posting is fine too.

So again, welcome to the Forum.
