2013 R1200RT

[elephant8869]

I'm back on a 2013 RT this weekend for my blood bike charity and three things stand out compared to the new watercooled bikes. The bike has significantly less power, particularly on overtaking, the suspension is very bouncy (however I think the rear sock might be reaching the end of its life), but the rider position is more comfortable; the riding position is slightly more upright. It's also very vibes. I did about 300 miles yesterday and 6 jobs on the bike. This is one of our older bikes with almost 60k on her and is normally used as a spare when the duty bike (watercooled version) is being serviced.
