I can’t believe you’re selling this!!! I’ve seen it in the flesh the other day and as discussed there won’t be many of these about!! Total bargain at that price!

H…thanks for your kind word …and yes she is a beauty…. She should be out on the road….
Few more pics of the luggage and additional pieces that would come with the bike.

just to be clear
She is 20 years old and not coming out of the showroom.
There are a few paint bubbles on the rear diff and swing arm,…
Wheelhubs, rims and gearbox-case are superb, front cover looks good .
And H…if she doesn’t sell she stays in my stable….she needs a good home.

I owned one

Did some heavy long miles across Europe on it… was not tired or cold even though I should have been given the miles and weather

Great bikes. Now on an Africa Twin as I commute into London but fond memories of these

GLWS but I don’t thing you need luck, I’m the end the good ones like this do sell well

 

[DING-DONG]

These bikes will go on for ever

Does that make them a collectors item !!

I thought the SE was the one to buy.

I thought the SE was the one to buy.

It was the one people were getting flushed about for a while but an excellent, low mileage one like this that is 9/10's standard will hold its own... The only downside is that people may be tempted to not use it as it was intended as they are bikes for riding not garage queens...

 

[GADGET]

Not really any difference between this and an SE , white tank and blue seat.

Mines a garage queen. I do use it though. I just like to keep it spotless. Nowt wrong with that.

I would pay more for a factory non ABS GSA and the white SE never came in that form
So no use in reality

Parts bin SE... BMW speciality... This and the Bumble Bee were my favourites...

I meant ones saved for the collectability rather than than used and pampered... Like buying a bake in a crate and not wanting to build it etc

All good chaps, she is what she is.
The SE is only white tank and white beak…if anybody wishes an SE I can arrange that…
Otherwise chappers it’s a FOR Sale thread, not a discussion about the pros and cons which 1150 is better.
I appreciate your enthusiasm..but keep it somewhere else for now….
Thanks chappers
