Means to an end

Hopefully the posting of this will offend no one - it's vaguely SOB
relevant.

To facilitate the upkeep of a bevy of SOB's and probably the purchase of
more, my Classic Triumph resurrecting compatriot is selling his glorious BMW
K1100 M32 RTO. He bought it new in August 1994, it's done all of 5934 miles
and has every conceivable extra, including (probably) a Jacuzzi, photon
torpedoes and a replicator for those Star trek munchie moments.

If anyone out there has any interest in spending around £7K on something
like this, hold 'yer hand up and I can furnish the full spec.

Ah Thankyewww.

Thanks for the quick feedback Steve. We both may well be mad - the truth is
we have no idea what the damn thing's worth but I guess there will be those
who have an opinion and may be able to help us nearer to nailing the right
figure. We just want rid and the dosh to spend on more worthy projects. Plus
the fact it lives in the heated garage WE should be working in and it'll be
winter all too soon.

If someone wants to add their tenpenn'th with the benefit of a clearer
picture, the full spec is as follows:

BMW K1100 LT SE (M32 RTO)
Gunmetal Metallic - Aug 1994 LE No.1061 5934 miles
ABS
Spy Ball Alarm
Data tag
Pannier and Top Box
BMW pannier bags(x3)
Tank Bag
Electric Screen
Heated Grips
Clarion Stereo

take a look at www.biketrader.co.uk and find similar ones. Currently the latest K1200RS's
are going for around the figure you quoted for your 9 year old K11 ... wish I had the
spare pennies as I'd like to make a bid myself but .... all my pennies go into a special
savings account called the CSA .... grrrr ;o)

Every one seems to be in about the same area ...... feedback much
appreciated.

Thanks for the nudge about the reg Timo - that's me not being careful with
copy and paste of text.

Why d'you say that?

I mean, my webshite is full of pics of my cages / bike(s) with the
reg-plates showing.

 

Would you mind sticking a picture or five of your 75 on the web so I
can order a set of numberplates for it and stick 'em on mine?

Why would you want to SORN someone else's car?

Why not?

One of these days I'm going to clone your plate, just to shut you up!

Nigel Eaton was seen penning the following ode to ... whatever:

*Ding*

 

Except when said gunge was kindly cleaned off, on the last French Run,
and his number plate polished until it would show up on a satellite
picture....

Ahem

 

Actually, I couldn't tell the difference before and after on that
occasion.

The *real* clean was performed by me at the side of the road, using a
grubby tissue, under the supervision of a severly unimpressed member
of Northamptonshire constabulary.

 

Thanks for the feedback all, regarding value of the BMW.
It'll get sold eventually and hopefully nearer the upper end of your
suggested ranges - luckily there's no panic for the garage space yet.

anyone is interested.
