I just posted an "ugly" link talking about how I feel about the r1200c. Some of you mentioned that the bricks aren't much of eye candy to begin with. Anyhow, here is my beemer. Feel free to criticize or insult. I'll take it like a man... gulp.
The p.o. had this bike in awful shape. Not easily scene in the middle picture. Black painted over factory red with chips of paint exposing the red coat beneath. The fairing was a mess and held up with mismatched screws. Both mirrors and their casing was cracked to hell. Don't even get me started on that 80's looking square headlight! Scrapes all over the place. Torn seat. I decided to take it to the next level... a nice ratty rod project. I took a sander to the tank and both fenders. When all the coats of paint were sanded away, I rattle canned it all flat black. I used a satin lacquer to protect the paint's finish. I got black and white emblems to match. Cut four inches off the bottom front fender. Carbon fiber decals run along the rear fender side. Flat black stebel nautilus air horn sits under the (extremely bright) dual headlights. One inch signals sit on the front forks. Not happy about the oem mirrors, but I found nothing else to be compatible. The lower profile bags work better for me. Let me know what y'all think...
