[QUOTE="rhody, post: 785112, member: 1605"] I did a search and came up empty so I am hoping that at least 1 active member has recently bought the BMW 1000 RR to discuss. I began the search for the best deal on said bike recently. Knowing what a gold mine of info the FJR forum is and wanted to tap into that if anyone out there has one. Main items of interest: price, what options were you able to get, (I want a loaded one), and what things if any did you do for comfort, safety, etc... Things I most likely will be adding: case savers heli bars custom seat rearsets replacement windshield spools for jack standing the bike jack stand I know this beast is a handful, having ridden a friends 04 R1, which has about 30 less hp, but the weight and features, are attractive enough for me to consider it. An easy smooth hand with all controls will ensure my continued survival, but it is nice to know that underneath, instead fierce acceleration stopping power is there to tap if and when needed. To me, it is the ultimate sleeper (not from looks which is obvious, but from performance). Hopefully someone out there will have one and be able to provide feedback. As always, in advance, thanks... Rhody... I still have my 05 FJR ABS, don't plan to get rid of it, it is like a trusted rmember of the family now. [/QUOTE]
