In English:
You're brave to ride in this heat, plus the heat from the engine; I don't know how you manage it.
My son was on a business trip in Saudi Arabia, and the colleague he was working with offered him a taxi to get back to his hotel, which was only 200 meters away. He refused, and he regretted it for those 200 meters.
I rode 900 km a few days ago, and I was very glad to have heated grips. You can cope with the cold, but for the heat, you need a car with air conditioning.
I owned a BMW R100RS in '79 (kept it for 14 years), and on the old continent, the RS models are difficult to resell compared to an RT, so when you buy an RS, you keep it.
