A quick check shows around 1,000 new R1250GS models sitting on US dealer floors. I'm not sure who is going to be jumping on a 1250GS when they finally come out of the Stop Sale order. Maybe BMW should have waited to do the 1300 release until the dealers can actually sell the bikes they have (and are paying for) on their floors.
Yeh, the dealer, here in Greensboro, has a completely full BMW showroom (new & used). Friday, I picked up an air filter and the guy was saying they're relying on Ducati sales to carry them through while this gets sorted out. Never thought I would hear that.
I noticed that the last time I was in there too. They are expecting the 1300's in the spring which gives them time, but they can't last forever. I am going to throw some service work their way this month. They are a great dealer.
