s3steve Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Well I was supose to pick up my new R12RT last Saturday from BMW Durham. One problem... no heated seat like I ordered. The dealer had two option for me, retro fit the heated seats and controler or wait on a new one from the BMW Canada warehouse to be delivered today and then wait to have it preped for pickup on Saturday. The bonus was I could have one of two demo bikes for the week. The two bikes where the R12S or the ST. My pick was the R12ST. When I first started to look at BMW's these where the two top picks for me so I wanted to compare. I think I'm in love! What a great bike! I can't say enough good things about this bike to my friends. Great handling, very comfortable, more then enough power, pulls like a tractor! I'm sure I'll love the RT just as much if not more then the ST but I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for my old flame the R1200ST. P.S. What a great dealer!!! Link to comment
velomoto Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 Careful there Steve, the BMW dealers don't keep demo bikes out of the kindness of their hearts. They're all too aware of the addiction which inflicts the riders who enter their establishments! It's just another type of worm on a hook... Greg Link to comment
s3steve Posted July 6, 2006 Author Share Posted July 6, 2006 Thank goodness they didn't let me take out a K12S or the new GT! I'd have to get them to write up a new bill! I better not let the wife demo a 5 series car, that could be big trouble and big $$$. Link to comment
kukari Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 haa, another victim My case was bit similar, dealer gave me brand new R12ST to drive. And the end result was that I got new bike as I was going to but not what I ordered originally Seems like R12ST wins hearts of it's test riders Link to comment
