I keep telling you guys, the K1200R Sport is the best of all. Mechanically identical to the K1200R. Ergos, gearing, the same. Just has the added protection and good looks of the half fairing. I also really like the contrast of the black engine/frame with the white aluminum bodywork.
It is the best of the BMW K bikes, and the ideal sport touring machine. Unfortunately I was the only person in the whole of North America in 2007 that thought so, and remain on a lonely island today.

I'd agree with you, but with one caveat: It'd look better naked.
