Francesca Robinson takes a look at the BMW R12000CL with two other riders. They rate the bike on Performance, practicality, style, reliability and value.
A heavy bike not for shorties (I’m 178cm and wish I was slightly longer) but realy strong even at low rpm’s. And not(!) slow as they said. But it is built for trips outside narrow cities / clumsy manouvring where it’s crowded. But you have to learn how to handle it and then there is no problem. Soo comfy even in high speeds.
2:30 to 2:50, I couldn't understand the man's accent... is he praising or criticising the bike? How about you get someone who actually speaks the Queen's English ?
WORST handling motorcycle ever built by anyone, let alone BMW...this is a wreck waiting to happen....anyone who has owned one will agree....very dangerous and absolutely unwieldy at slow speeds especially.
Could the handling issues be attributed to the tires? Perhaps a different set would make a difference. I have had several heavy bikes that felt much lighter and more responsive with a better tire.
Absolute nonsense. I've been on the bike for nearly 2 years and put over 11000 miles on it. She handles just fine and I have attended slow speed motorman courses with it. Learn to ride.
@@jamesbonanno3359 for sure i just bought one , a 2003 with 21k and It is one of the most comfortable and easy driving Bike I have ever ridden. Can not even hear the motor at highway speed. Guy is an idiot or troll!!
I have always wanted one of these. Could never find one I could afford when I had the $$$. I've had to settle for a Kawa Concours 1000
just keep looking and one will turn up for you.

Wow she is Beautiful and I don't mean the bike
Мотор бы повеселее (хотя бы от рт 1100) и звук выхлопа посочнее...
А так- красивый байк.
Amazing to see an out gay couple back in 03! Cool... very progressive.
No Dental plan i take it?

i suspect by looking at your alias, you might be a tad bias.
