Thursday Afternoon Moto News - BMW R1200RT, Keith Code and the Mobility Conquest

The new 2010 BMW R1200RT has had some extra power on tap, and some minor upgrades including the new ESA2 remotely adjustable suspension system. MCN (UK) is in Spain at the press launch and they have been very impressed with the new engine character so far. And, they have at least 600 miles on it now. A full review will be available soon.

And, just a quick note that the Mobility Conquest, a BMW-based motorcycle which allows people stuck in a wheelchair to ride a bike, will be on display at Cycle World's International Motorcycle Show at the Cleveland I-X Center this 29 - 31 January 2010.
