Working myself up to buying a new Tuareg 660, probably yellow. Few shops are struggling to shift them so have them on at £8500-8995 out the door. Haven't found a demo yet as shops keep selling them (MC shops need to sort this out, so many bikes I didn't even bother looking at as no one has a demo, do folks REALLY just spend £10-20k on a bike without even an idea what its like? For me its an absolute requirement that my ass + legs don't go numb and it doesn't buffet).
Old BMW is either going as it is, or might refresh engine, been sat all winter and now valve stem seals have gone, leaks oil into cylinder pretty quickly causing starting issues + smoke. Pretty simple job on old rotax engine, but honestly kind of fed up trying to make bikes work.
