Get out on it
My GSA ‘garage queen’ which only comes out on sunny Sundays normally….was pressed into action for a tour of Normandy and Alsace, plus Black Forest and Mosel
2500 miles and thoroughly enjoyed taking it
Decided to just use it now

I’m very reluctant to sell it. You get so little for a very well sorted 1150 nowadays. The amount I’ve spent on it over the years I’ll never get back I know but it’s too good to sell. 
Didn’t Mikeyboy do a lot of work on it ?
'ow about , i do you a favour , you deliver it to M25/J9 before Friday night , i'll take her away for a holiday ?
i'll even let you wash it after i come back ?
how does that sound ?

Yep, just over £6k’s worth in total.
It’s had everything replaced, all the transmission renewed, gearbox output shaft done ( and seal ), subframe strengthened and powder coated, heavy duty long splined clutch kit, it's got Ohlins front and back ( fully rebuilt ) I can go on and on!
You name it, I had it all done as a precaution.
It’s like riding a new bike. Mikeyboy did a fantastic job on it.
The only thing it needs is a rear tyre because it’s squared off a bit.
Get stuffed!
I don’t wash it. I carefully polish any dirt off.I even clean it while I’m away on it.
You can spot any potential problems early on a clean bike.
can you spot the problems if it is in ...... Italy ?Get stuffed!

£1550 ?
i have your meme as my screen saver at home , but it says cnuts , as far as the eye can see . ( stolen from Att )
Did a day like that last year on the old 11 and no, I didn't polish it.... Ever...
I did 120 miles on my Ducati last year (I do have a Guzzi too) but there is absolutely noway I would sell it.In fact it's now in my will so that when I shuffle off this mortal coil it will go to my best mate.
If possible,keep the Bim,don't be too hasty,told you in another thread I have advice on hand for your post op knee replacement (it will probably be along the lines of......you MUST do all the exercises,no fucking around.......) but we'll compare notes afterwards

That bike has got to be good for over 100k miles.
You get so little £s for older bikes and newer is not always better in the BMW world.
If the bike is well fettled, reliable and you still like it, keep it and ride it when you can.
