Default new to this site, I pick up my 1200 next week

Hello, I am new to this site but not bikes or GSes. I have been on ADV for quite a few years. I stopped by the BMW dealer yesterday and test rode a 2005 1200 GS and I pick it up next week after I do the financing and get the check. I traded a 1998 1100GS that I have been riding for going on 5 seasons.
I test rode a 1200RS and a 1200GT and I did not like either one. I guess after riding a GS and getting used to that comfotable seating position it is hard to go back.
I took a ride on the 1200 and came back and told my wife it is what I wanted.
It is the blue, with wilbur shocks, 3 vario bags, piaa lights, crash bars, sargent seat. It is in great shape. nothig I could see wrong with it and it had not even been detailed yet....
I cant wait to pick it up.
