Piccys of the new XR 1200 first in the UK.

As promised the XR 1200 piccys.

Some smartyass can arrange and sort them and make them bigger etc. thank you.

Or make a poll to see if liked or not.

You can see by the rain that it was a beautiful day for Scotland.

They are only allowed to be driven by Harley dealer staff and accompanied by the UK guy from Harley. Every test ride has resulted in the driver being pulled up for doing something not approved of by him. eg the rider was bouncing up and down on the pegs to see what like the suspension was while going slow, "don't do that" the staff think it is a LOS (loadofsh1t), they were pulled up for going too fast, 70mph the list is endless. The only thing they seem to like about it is the swingarm.
There are wirelike metal tubes for brackets all over the place that destroys the look of the whole engine and have a look at the oil pipes/hoses between the cylinders, it is fitted with a side up oil cooler next to the filter.

I see industrial gray powdercoat has replaced all chrome. Must be trying to cut down the reflections on the day you get sunshine.

Not wanting to be a smartas$$ I will ask a dumba$$ question.

So these are actual MoCo production bikes and the XR designation on the tank badges is for real?



Very cool

Some of the design is nice. I like the air cleaner but wonder how something so small could hold an air filter.

I wonder how the riding position feels. By the shifter, it looks like your knees are bent slightly more than normal.

It looks like a lot of fun to ride.

The air filter runs along under the tank, one of the piccys shows the intake at the front the air filter is inside it.

Ahhh - I see. Missed that.

In that same pic, what is the round plate that looks like it has the number 44 on it? Right below/in front of the front jug exhaust?

Road Tax disc, similar to I think what you call tags. has the month and year it expires on it. Has to be renewed each year £68.00 about $140.00 for a bike that size.

Congratulations.
Really a very nice looking bike.

But why do they call it an XR if the intake and exhaust on the heads
is just like a regular sporty?
