Would you purchase first year bike? First year K1200RS had few problems all corrected by BMW next year.
K1200S looks to have a few problems transmission and valves. As much as I want to buy K1200S now, think I will pass and buy second year bike without being BMW guinea pig.

I would try not to do that.... for example...back in '01 (I think) when they came out with the newer style GSXR and revamped it from the old 2 round headlight...they had lots of problems... just as teh 10R did last year!

So no... I wouldn't!
