Thanks, Dean. I guess you want us to guess where they were taken? As much as I'd like to think so, I don't think they were taken in the U.S.

Them's some Euro-lookin' switches & plugs on the wall, and that's some Teutonic architecture in the background. My $1 says Germany, behind some dealer (or lucky new owner's casa). The black bike has a typical HUGE Euro license plate on it, too. One quick giveaway is the reflectors (or lack thereof) on the fork tubes. USA bikes have to have them, others don't.

My bad, I forgot to post the source, it is the Pelican site and the pics are from the Neatherlands.

Thanks, Dean. I was going to guess either Germany or the Netherlands.

I'd been wondering where they hid the can, and now I see. I guess they had to put it somewhere. At least it's not hanging out the way it used to.

That fly screen looks good and reminds me of the screen on my R1150R.

I really like the new R, but my current bike is not old enough to trade out. I will look in a couple of years, and take a test ride as soon as one gets in.
