"the flying brick"!

So true, but it's rock solid at stupid speeds and you can really log the mileage on it. "Working on it" for me is pretty much confined to putting the battery in and out, and that is enough of a nuisance, no doubt.
I tried the K1200S at the dealer, but it kind of scared the crap out of me. I have gotten so used to the lumbering predictability of the K100 that the new Ks feel twitchy and jumpy. The new RS seems more sport than tourer, with the GT closer to my old model.
