Hi, Returning owner
#1
Just a quick one to say I'm returning to the RS after a few years on an XR.
Loved the XR but height and old knee injuries meant I wasn't too confident at a standstill. Rolleyes 
Back to flat footing again  Smile

Due to pick the 2023 model up in March. I'm not a big poster so don't expect too much input from myself, however if I can contribute when I see I can help I will.

While we have your attention, how about some specs on your soon to arrive '23 RS?
Happiness comes not from what you have, but from enjoying all that you do have no matter how much or little that may be.
Be stubborn with your dream but flexible with your path

It's the SE model in white I'm getting. European spec which may differ from other territories. 
I've added the comfort package, heated seats and engine guards to the spec heavy SE model. 
No doubt I'll be adding when it's here. Front engine protection, mudsling, fork spindles, swing arm protector etc.
Luckily I've still got the bespoke rack plate for Givi monokey top boxes, from Bacaruda if memory serves me right, which I had on my previous 1200RS.

Does your name relate to the band?  If so I saw them on every tour from the beginning up to the Ace of Spades tour. Lost interest in them after that.

No, my second FIAT 124 spider was a 1977 so it became my eBay name due to a temporary lack of imagination LoL. Your RS sounds nicely spec'd.

Most important RS spec is the color, as anyone here knows.
