Hi all,
Just checking in here  I've owned a blue 93 K1100RS since last November. My dad found it for me local to him - and bizarrely when I collected it and looked at the paperwork - it was registered on his birthday!
Currently sitting around the 50K mile marker with plenty of life in it yet - the bikes in excellent condition and has really been looked after - everything works as it should. Full BMW service history too.
I only paid £1150 for it from a BMW dealership with full kraut luggage, however it had missed a major service, so I had them do that before I took it away.
I'm taking the bike to Morocco in September - really looking forward to that
So that's my intro.
Catch you around |
