a few years ago I sold my black 2012 T1200. I really miss that bike... is anything new for 2021 model year?? ..... what's the going price on the leftovers???
Take a brand new one for a test drive. I think you'll be impressed. Prices are going to vary from dealer to dealer, and state to state. Maybe do a fly-n-ride. '21 info won't be confirmed until November of '20 though.a few years ago I sold my black 2012 T1200.

@StanBo - Welcome to the forum. NJ? Please take a moment to put your location in your profile. It gives context to your posts and helps others give better answers if you have questions.If you plan to fly and ride make sure that the state you fly to has connectivity with your home state for plating. Just picked up a leftover in PA and couldn't have ridden it home. Still got a great deal. Can't wait for my local MVC to open up.
Dealers do not issue "temp tags" up there? They're called "buyers tags" here, and they're good for 90 days. That is to give the dealership enough time to register the car/bike/truck with the state. Usually, the metal plates arrive waaaay before the buyer tag expires. It has always been my understanding, that regardless of which state they were issued in, they are valid registration to drive in any state. Texas has the expiration date printed on the plate. Oklahoma has the purchase date printed, and how many days it's good for. Of course private sales are totally different.. . . . Just picked up a leftover in PA and couldn't have ridden it home. . . .

It certainly does vary, state to state. In some states the selling dealer can give you a trip permit for up to 10 days. In other states they can't, but you can go to the local source in the selling state and purchase one. In other states you can buy a trip permit with minimal info at your home state DMV/Motor Vehicle what-ever or tax office and fly with it to pick up your new bike.
Yeah I have gotten them for bikes purchased within my state. Normally takes a couple weeks for the permanent plate to be delivered.Dealers do not issue "temp tags" up there?

and your bank account. Between the buy in cost and increased maintenance intervals you will need to pony up extra $. Plus you will probably not be able to ride by a Starbucks coffee shop without stopping. Sorry that was uncalled for...not!Before you buy a new S10, take a ride on a BMW GS....it will change your life!
For guys like you the BMW GS is a perfect choice. Thee is no denying they are a fantastic machine. OTOH for guys like me who buy a bike and run it into the ground, BMW is a poor choice and will be like owing a boat. I actually considered a GS until I realized I simply could not afford the cost of ownership.Before you buy a new S10, take a ride on a BMW GS....it will change your life!
Here in CA you cannot even register a motor vehicle purchased out of state that has less than 7500 miles.Dealers do not issue "temp tags" up there?
