Very nice!
I used to have a black 2002 R1150R. No bags though. Good luck with her!

Looking back at my post I obviously meant elegant, but my iPhone thought differently.

The RT is a fantastic bike, but the standard boxer with bags and a shield is IMO the best sport-touring platform in the lineup.
Though I may be a bit biased.

My ST is 100 pounds lighter then a RT. Other then the somewhat polarizing front end I think it's perfect.

MCN which actually weighs the bikes as opposed to taking the manufactors at their word got 523lbs wet for the R1200ST and 625lbs wet for the R1200RT. That's where my comment came from.
