- BMW R1100GS
Hi, all.
I'm very much on the fence about a R1100GS that I'm looking to buy. I'm hoping not to spend more than R32k to R35k in getting it.
Here are all the pictures of the problem areas I've spotted on it: https://imgur.com/a/ZB1yF
Bike has 82000km on the clock, and has all the original BMW topbox and panniers.
ABS isn't currently working (Gives the alternating flashing lights, indicating an error with it). Grip warmers working fine.
The logbook says it was first registered in 2006, though (Not sure what to think of that piece of info). License is fully up to date, though.
The hall sensor has been replaced at some stage.
My gut is telling me that this will be a good buy and a good bike. My brain is telling me that I'm going to be spending more money than I think I will be. Would you guys mind giving me third, fourth and fifth (etc.) opinions?
Thanks.
