Newbie from Spain

Postby Henners » Tue Aug 18, 2015 1:13 pm

Hola ~ serial BMW owner looking to buy a BCR. I owned a black 1100S in 2000 and have owned a 1200GS and R since however been without a bike for about a year and after a test ride on a tidy 04 S I have decided to buy another. In the UK at the moment looking but BCRs are scarce, the one at BMW in Chester is tatty and they put £500 on the price after I called to look at it! If you know of a good 04 model please let me know ~ Henners

there have been 5 RWB BCR on ebay in the last month, all about the £5K mark, and about 6 mamolas varying from 3-6K

Thanks ~ seen those, heading back to Spain on Thursday but back in September. Not keen on the Mamola as I believe they all came with ABS which can be problematical. There may be a low km BCR in Malaga which I'll suss out when I'm back there.
