Hey Guth.......I went to the dealer to look at the R9T....I retired in 2014 at 62 and I am selling off 6 of my 10 bikes. I will NEVER sell my CB1100, it will be in my garage long after I can no longer ride. Having said that the 4 bikes I'm keeping are my CB1100, VFR800, Monster S2R1000, and Road King Classic. We trailer the RK to Idaho and my wife and I take numerous rides thru Yellowstone Park. I've never had a Boxer twin and after visiting the dealer I decided the R1200R is the bike that will eventually replace my RK when it just gets too heavy to safely use. The R9T is an awesome bike but my wife insists on some kind of backrest so the R1200R with a Corbin gunfighter and lady seat is the way I'm leaning.....when we ride in Idaho/Montana/Wyoming we take a lot of gear so we need the saddlebags and tail trunk that goes on easily on the R1200R....I will try and post a pic of the bike with the bags/trunk off.
