Got system panniers too. 180 back wheel. Full BMW service history and as far as I can tell good condition all round. Had a good 70 or so miles today bimbling around the Lothians with the wife (on the Harley) and only managed to (almost) stall twice :), I'm blaming it on the clutch being heavier than I'm used to.

Absolutely love the bike and the nice low down shove, thinking of popping in a K&N panel filter and maybe setting up a Telfrizer & Ram mount for the bigger journeys. Totally chuffed with the bike and hopefully get a chance to meet some of you folks out and about.

Nice one Chaps. As I was out with the wife (she doesn't get out on the bike often due to work) I didn't bother posting, hoping to get another decent run this weekend. That borders run sounded good!

To be fair, that's the shine that came from the dealers... I shall do my best to maintain it!
