  • I haven't been on here for about 5 years since I sold both my bikes and I thought I was done with bikes. I'm about to buy a twenty year old full dress R1150GS. I'm getting excited as the days count down until collection. I just thought I'd share. There will be pics.

  • Be interested to know what you make of the engine at low rpm. Pretty sure they all only had one oxygen sensor so sometimes it gets the fuelling wrong at low speeds. They are incredible engines though, took me a while to stop bouncing off the limiter going through the gears.

  • I'm looking forward to it. It is a two owner bike. The seller got it in '08 and has one of those genuine reasons for selling. A bit rude to ask but I'm sure he'll tell me when I pick it up. It's done 68000 miles, recent new clutch, just had a 12000 mile service, new tyres, new longer Hagon rear shock (might need to change that), all the original factory hard luggage, various Wunderlich parts: rear light, bar risers and touring footpegs.
    I've never even ridden a GS before though I have owned a very tall Yamaha XTZ660 Tenere and an R100RT and an RS. This GS is a bit modern for me.
