Another 1100s to go with my original s

Post by iandunn1100ss »

Bought this for £2000 with 21k on the clock in August last year. It was running on the secondary coils and everything had been messed with to try to get it to run. So after much work and setup here it is. Done 3500 miles till the salt went down and my tmax took over daily use. It came with heated grips,comfort bars,tall screen,carbon hugger and bellypan,y piece,12v socket,gs torque arm,fenda extender,panniers. I have added carbon indicator pods ,brake hoses, oddsessy battery,stainless bolts.

Very nice collection you have there, it would be nice to see a group bike photo when the weather picks up, the RS250 especially :D

I have not done that before but I will see what I can do when the weather picks up. I can post a 250 if you want to see it?

That looks lovely for the money.

What does the GS torque arm do for the bike?

It's was running awful and I think it wasn't the bike the owner thought it was going to be. He bought a Harley after I bought it. It was so cheap i couldn't believe it.

That's why I have had the seat lowered on this one , I am short too but I only every put one foot down so it's fine. I will take a better turn in over a few extra MM seat height any day. Both my BM''s are almost the same height now although they run totally different specs at the rear.

Very nice! Have a similar condition one, T reg, 19k on the clock and spotless - came with BMW panniers and top-box, heated grips, fender extender, hugger etc. I'm just missing the tall screen and belly pan!!
