That's quite a jump. A lightly used K1600 is cheaper. Zei mir gezunt.
Just for kicks, I've been watching flea Bay and and the various K sites.
Lightly used 2012 K16GTs are selling for 17,500 - 19,000

I'll play along...Why do you think that is?
I'll play along...
There seem to be many available.
I'd reason that is why the prices seem lower than I'd expect.
A dealer here in n-east Ohio recently told me that the GTL was his best selling model this year.
Surprised me to hear that.
Personally, they're too big, too heavy for my purposes. Then there's the price, a bit beyond my station. If I rode 2-up, long distance, sure, I guess I'd consider a K16
To bring the thread back to The R bike..
If a 2014 R1200 RT can be had, without radio or GPS for 20ish, well that might just work for me.
I have to wonder if they'll offer it without a radio. May be not. At some point a lot of things that were options will be standard now. I guess we'll see in time.
dmilan; There's much ambient noise when riding said:+1. The radio also lowers my focus no matter how hard I try to ignore the music. Open road with nil traffic and under 60mph is the only time I even try to listen. Traffic and high speed is a no radio domain for my riding.
I owned a 2002 R1150 RT, it had a factory radio.
Have a radio on my K16GT and have never listened to it. Sorry to say, but when I ride motorcycles I do not listen to the radio, when I drive a car, I don't text, when I am in a restaurant I am not talking on my cell-phone.....
