My goal was to maintain the "Tuxedo Look" of the bike but give it a more aggressive appearance.

Hi Alan,

Looks nice your bike. Nice driveway too.I have some problems to understand the expression Tuxedo Look ? What does this mean ?

Michael- The bike has a more formal look than a sport bike. I have read posts that describe the graphite-aluminum paint combination on a K12R as a "Tuxedo Look", similar to a tuxedo jacket and shirt.

Dry street, sunshine, green trees and in the middle of all a nice looking bike, I donÂ´t believe it... :roll:

HereÂ´s winter, cold, snowy and ugly streets with salt all over... :evil:

But weÂ´ve won 4:1, thatÂ´s pretty nice... :lol:

I don't think you should really complain the weather in Germany. Enjoy the first REAL winter since a long time back... :wink:

Best regards from Stockholm/Sweden where it is even colder... /RÃ¸gge

P.S. I NEED SUN !!!
