He's going to make some handy money selling that for spares ......seems he bought it for that reason ....it's done 100.000 miles too...served somebody well. Parts are available and easy to source if he did decide to fix it .....can't say all that about some bikes .

Let's hope it's not a top price Image
Been waiting ages to get my bike in there as he's very busy.
Hopefully he can get it sorted, because I enjoy riding that old plodder BMW R1100S Image
