1250s in demand - open offers for used stock

[JoeBiff]

I love reading these threads where folk seem to be trying to influence a market; especially comments from bods with no intention of ever buying.
A fascinating insight into the human psyche.

It's gone on for ages...just look at how some 1150adv owners on here still bang on about them....

13 private GSA bikes for sale on bike trader and 202 on from Dealers.
Not that scarce I don't think as long as you'll travel.

I don't think they're so rare either and that perspective can depend on whether you're buying or selling. I struggled to get the spec and value I wanted for a 1250 at a price I felt sensible, so I opted to change one of the metrics and settled on the last of the 1200s. I'm very happy with my decision.

This post is to let any would-be sellers know that they're after 1250s and actively opening direct buying offers for used stock, no part exchange necessary. According to one of the sales guys, as a result, on Saturday they put out 35 offers to interested owners requesting valuations.

I might give them a call and ask if they’re interested in my Triple black 1250 factory low, its fully loaded and I would say it’s the best spec’d 1250 and lowest mileage in the county, 2023 bike with 630 miles.

I want a M1000R so either trade it or sell.

I remember you mentioning you might consider selling. Looking for factory low Adventure is what limited my options, so I'd say it's definitely desirable.

Tbh I’ve made no attempt at selling most likely because l I don’t need to sell it, I’d rather px it for something else like a M1000R Competition.

I'm after a triple black, low chassis and looking to part with an M1000R - non competition. I'd be interested in your GS.

I don't think they are in demand.
Phoned a few dealership - two aren't taking on anymore stock and one offered me £10.5k as it stands...

Lovely bike! I would sell you my GSA but I'm not after another bike (yet )

I’m looking for a comp but if you want the best 1250 this is it, 630 miles and thousands spent in extras, I’ve had all the silver bits powder coated and the silver seat base painted and have 3 box vario luggage and a single seat conversion trim, full ppf covered and fully ceramic coated.

There is not another 1250 in the country as mint as this.

What was the point if you never ride it? It’s not as if a 1250GSA is a work of art like a 916 or an MV F4.

Life - Work gets in the way, I have other bikes and cars that are rarely used, I don’t need to sell it, it’s paid for so it’s just sits covered up.

Guess I’m an exception then

The 1200 was a fantastic bike, but the 1300 is better in almost every aspect, in some ways a lot better

It’s a lot sportier, maybe that puts some people off, but I like it, and the new suspension is a revelation 2 up

The 1200/1250 can be just as hooligan too, if you get a bit trigger-happy
