We really don't have enough BMW dealers in Scotland do we...?
So far I've test ridden an R1200 GS at John Clark BMW in Dundee and spent some time in Motorrad Central in Kirkintilloch.
Neither of them really inspired me to get out my plastic and place a deposit.
Now this might be because I've been very much in two minds about the whole thing anyway. Close to £10K is a serious sum on money to spend on a bike . However I'm very gradually coming round to thinking that this could a bike that I might have for the rest of my riding life and it would be ideally suited for the sort of twisty B roads and unclassifieds that are the routes in my favoured wilderness areas.
So....... Where am I going to buy the bloody thing? I take it that it's impossible to get a deal on a GS since the dealerships seem to be able to sell every one that they can get their hands on.
