Wanted 2003-2005 R1150GS Adventure twin spark

[Chris.beard]

Hi everyone. Like a lot of people I'm looking for one of these bikes in good condition to be used for a trip to the Nordkapp in July / August 2027. I say it is for this trip because that is why I am looking to finally take the plunge now but it is a dream bike for me to keep.

I have recently sold my 1250GS which was a great bike but I have always wanted the 1150GSA for it's mechanical simplicity and style. I'm used to working on Land Rovers and I have restored a 1964 Triumph T120 (full engine rebuild) so I don't mind a bike that may need a little mechanical attention but it needs to be cosmetically and structurally in very good condition. The servo iABS also needs to be working perfectly too so I'm not immediately hit with a massive bill!

Would like the milage as low as possible and I have a maximum budget of £4k.

If anyone can help to point me in the direction of a suitable bike or has one available it would be greatly appreciated if they could let me know.

I will have a GSA ready for sale soon I think 54000 miles (miles are nothing to these machines as long as you service them regularly

I just need time off work to get it to MOT Big Project on at work scheduled to complete week 2 January

Silver 1150GSA With either MINT wheels and New discs and tyres or Decent or faded depending what you are after
Full Luggage, a Protech front shock, remus can on a Y or plain standard
It was a Keeper but I just found a 27000 mile barn find 100GS (Well a warm heated garage find )

Drop me a line and I will get pics if you have any interest

Sidenote I am in N Ireland ! about 15 mins from Larne 30 Mins from Belfast for ferries

45 Mins from International airport
30 from City

Yeah, your bike is stunning so unfortunately I imagine it is well out of my budget. What would it cost out of interest?

Last ones are better

I have both a 2004 July build and an April 2005 1150 GSA and there are small changes/ refinements between the 2 build dates

2005 was the last build year for 1150 GSA

Thanks, I've asked the moderator to change the date range in my title, I missed the time window to do it myself.
