Dropped in to BMW oxford and was lent a k1200s for 24 hrs, what a engine, its turbine smooth and obviously seriously quick.
Certainly easier to ride than my Duke ST4S, I love the electronic suspension , set it to comfort over the crappy cotswold roads

How would you rate it for everyday use?

Could you use it okay in wet conditions etc.

I really like those and the K1200R
Have to say everyday use, its very ease to ride. The engine has torque to die for, 6th gear at 30 mph to lots without a stutter

The fairing gives good weather protection !! The heated handles and ABS are great, brakes are vary strong too
