R1100RT forum UK??

Post by bigblackfalco »

I'm looking at buying another BMW for work.
Can anyone recommend a UK based forum where I might find a cheap one for sale?
Cheers

In my experience forums don't generally give up the bargains because they're frequented by 'enthusiasts' who can often have an over-inflated idea of the value of their bike!

If you're after an 1100RT check out ebay for franchise dealers selling off trade-in stock that's too old for them to sell out of the front door, plus there's biketrader, MCN and the usual suspects.

Cheap BMW dealers?! :shock: :wink:
I narrowly missed out on a nice ebay RT on Monday (got out bid by an auto bidder :evil: )
Good thinking that man. I shall get my thinking head on.

BBF - "cheap" what does that mean - When I was looking for a bike yrs ago I wanted to spend about £3k but ended up speng £8.5k on a RT - try:

All on the BMW owners forum so as stated above - they might not be the lowest price you can get them for!

Yeah.....cheap means less than £3K. I want it to courier on, so a cosmetically challenged version will suit me fine.
