Just given my 1200s a good clean, there is a lot of black plastic on these bikes. Miss my EVO.

one thing I did notice was the badge on the tank just above the petrol cap does not have an S on it, it just says 1200. The dealer said he will order me one in and replace it, perhaps they just ran out of the S badges in the factory.

What do you think??? Does this seem right?

I am just a worrier I think. It is an S and he said he would replace it so maybe I should just get on with it hey.

I just want my S :)

The WDW14 sticker is on squint, that would really annoy me...

I'll start the bidding at a breakfast, cup of coffee and £50.

Just ride the thing ffs and stop looking at the sticker :D

NB: this coming from a guy who seems to have a flat battery every time I want to ride.
NBB: If you are paying that much for a new bike you should expect things to be right and "as new" I guess

I wonder if it's really Ohlins bits. Maybe they just threw a few Ohlins stickers on but forgot the S? :mand:

Its just the run of the mill stuff, not the really nice stuff.

That said I always find them too stiff for the road
