Just a quick hello.
I've been here a while, as I had planned to get an R11S a few yearsr back. It was a friends bike and he was running out of space. He pulled out at the last minute, because he couldn't bear to part with the bike...he'd had it from new, and just couldn't let go...which I totally understood.
Anyway fast forward a couple of years, and I get a text on Saturday night from the same guy...he's decided now is the time. He couldn't bear to sell it on the open market, so he's given it to me.
It's a 2003 in Silver / Yellow:

Has a few niggles, screen is cracked at one of the fixing points, intermitant starting issue (already ready about the wiring loom around the headstock/bars getting streched/worn), intermitant neutral light (needs some investigation, as don't know full sympotems yet). mirror arms are a bit scruffy...needs sand blasting and re-powdercoat.
It's only done about 36K from new and its in near mint condition, with just a few little things to tidy up.
Looking forward to getting some miles under my belt on it now
Not shabby at all.
