Anyone know this R1150 GSA?

That's ridiculously clean! I think the pictures have been Photoshoped :green gri
 
Is it a GSA.
it's got wally flaps, looks like aftermarket shocks, GS seats, black gearbox, painted heads, GSA tank, beak, and other little add ons.

If it's actually a GS as advertised then about 1.5K too steep but the miles are nice and low.
If it's a GSA with GS seat conversion then @ 5k is about right.

Don't know it, but worth a punt in that condition if it's accident free.:beerjug:
 
Looks like it's had a fresh coat of paint on the fork legs etc., I'd be asking them who did it and what they used...

Not just on the forks. Lots of shiny painted bits. I'd want to know why and by whom.

Surely being an 05 makes it an A, the std 12GS's had been out at least a year by then:nenau. Looks pricey, but in good nick. Why would forks have been painted? Only 18k, was the paint really that bad?:nenau

The fork lowers were straight silver paint sprayed directly onto the aluminium - not even a primer. I used Nitromors on a brush to remove the paint and it all came off as I brushed it on.

Maybe the previous owner tarted up the subframe and forks because they were corroded - and used shiny paint instead of semi-matt? Best way to find out is go and have a look and ask questions, I'd think...
 
All the moans about it being too clean and well looked, do you suggest the OP buys a shite looking bike instead ?
 
That seat is the optional Comfort/Lower seat.
The tank decals have a problem. The 'lower' blue piece is shaped the wrong way, doesn't follow the contour of the tank.
Everything else looks GSA with lots of extras.
Photos is heavily photoshopped (cleaned up)
 
Why are dealers so fookin useless
Being 327 miles away my first contact would be by phone
"Yes I'll get the folder on the bike and call you back...."
After waiting six hours with no reply somehow I don't think I'm going to get one :mad:
Amazing these people manage to stay in business

Sounds like you dodged a bullet.
If the feckers can't be arsed when you're buying, what would they be like if you had a compliant.
