Everyone may have an opinion does anyone know whether the down pipes for a 2010 R1200RT would fit a 2005 ST?

Sweet - Thanks Guys. And Yes I did by an ST - all been explained before. Mrs TT thgought the RT was too Grandadlike and the S too damn uncomfy. So ST it was after the orginal Teutonic Tangerine was sold. 1998 R110s in Mandarin the orginal MCN Test Bike.

I'll come out and say it.
I don't mind the ST. Looks to be a useful tool and is certainly distinctive.
Then again I like Fiat Multiplas.

LOL
We did exactly that some years ago - didn't actually end up buying a Muttley thingy but it was very close.
Bought a Citroen instead.

Once you get over the looks, they are brilliant cars for transporting stuff.

That's the thing - I really like the Multipla and was a bit miffed when Fiat dumbed down the looks in the facelifted model. We had one for a half day test drive (this was in 2002) and really liked it, and that interior is just awesome. The dash in particular is one crazy work of art. I'm a huge lover of old Citroens so the Mulitpla really appealed on a similar level.
I love threads about the 1200ST - it brings out all the wacky/crazy stuff with it.
