Ah, I see! “Factory customs”. Form over function.
Well, lots of things are designed for appearance, and that’s not a bad thing.
It would be a pretty boring world if everything was designed for practicality.

It might be a good bike but I don't care for the style.

I understand. I wanted something lighter and small for day rides. At 76 my days of heavy tall bikes are done.

Absolutely gorgeous! BMW nailed it with the R12S. There hasn’t been anything new to come down the production line in years that has caught my attention, until now. They did it right. They kept the lines simple, clean cockpit, two multi function analog/digital gauges with just enough tech to keep most people happy. If I were in the market for a new bike, this would likely be it. Nothing else on the market from any manufacturer even remotely interests me.
