I like it, I think it will take a bit of time to really warm to the new looks but it will definitely be on the "must buy" list in about 12-18 months!!

Still think the best fairing was on the old R80/100RT models

Re: 1300 RT & RS
I was hoping for so much more 
No back lit controls?
No variable ride height for low speed stability?
No significant gain in flexibility?
No proper sat nav or apple car play - we all know the current system is tragic
No adjustable handle bars?
BMW could have done so much more with this, but instead they jacked up the price, especially on the options, and many of the good features real riders would have appreciated have been excluded
I'm not saying it won't be a decent bike, as most of my griped were there on the R1250RT, but I won't be buying one
