You're going to like the heck out of it. The classic pulse of a boxer is like nothing else. I swapped my RT with a friend's S for a while and really enjoyed it.
Nice acquisition.Comment

Beautiful looking machine - I'm jealous...Comment

Agree! Awesome machine.
Rear seat doesn't look overly comfy. Is this a solo machine? Wouldn't blame your wife if she doesn't want to ride anymore but just asking.
BTW, there was an 1100RT on ebay set to end today, but the seller ended the auction early for some reason. Bike was right here in town and was tracking toward a reasonably low price (never know with auctions though of course). Kind of bummed but oh well.Ed
To measure is to know.

What kind of price?
I need to sell mine.Comment

Actually, from what I read it's not too bad. Especially if I replace the stock seat.
Obviously not as comfy as an RS or RT, but much more comfy than most sport bikes.
Wife doesn't know if, or when, she will want to ride again...so I got this.
With the hard bags I can make some weekend trips, and still enjoy the ride.
If she decides she wants to try two up again, we can use this, or we have the 1100E.
And if she decides to ride with me again full time, than I will buy something else.
I made it clear to her that whether or not she rides, and how much she rides, is completely up to her.Bob T. ~~ Play the GSR weekly photo game: Pic of Week Game

A Rhinewest chip is the ticket. I had an R1150GS that had one and a Remus exhaust. The performance gain is supposed to be very noticeable. Fuel economy goes down, though....about 4-5 mpg. The PO had the work done, so I didn't get to experience the difference. All I know is that the thing ran circles around the 1150RT and my friend's 1200GS.
A Throttlemeister would be a nice addition if going on superslab runs.Comment
