Re: The real difference between 14 and 15 model?

(1)  Keyless ignition.

(2)  Blue color available.

(3)  I think it shifts into and out of first gear without the clutch more smoothly than it did on my ex-14.

Re: taller wind screen for rt?

That is crazy.

Never had a problem with an electric screen going up and down with a tall Cee Bailey shield on an R1200RT, an  R1150RT,  or a 2005 through 2015 R1200RT.

Re: taller wind screen for rt?

Cee Bailey makes a tall windshield.  I am 6-4 and use it.  You can find info an a picture here:

Re: 2005 rt

Avoid pre-2007 R1200RTs.  They have the weird servo brakes to be avoided.

From 2007 on the  brakes are fine.

Re: Fresh blood! Considering purchasing an RT

I agree with looking for a 2014 RT, because the 2015s are out and discounts on 2014s are available.

Other than that, you cannot go wrong with a good, low mileage, well-cared-for RT from 2007 or newer.  Avoid pre-2007 models.

Re: 2015 Marino blue R1200RT

I do not use the radio, so I removed the ugly antenna. I store it in the top box in case I need it.
