Currently without a running motorcycle.

Anyone got anything sub 1k that runs and is reasonably reliable? Cheaper to run the better.

I’m North Wales based.

Ps appreciate that comedy posted links to the Mobylette and APC chopper were a possibility.

Hey. I still dream. It sometimes happens. I remember a rather ratty triumph. It’s been a few years since I had a rat bike.
 

You'd probably get this for a grand, bit of travelling to do mind.
Or better still just give him the 1200 notes as that looks like a bargain... And non of that "I want a bargain but it's too far away" shite...😉😆
I managed a rare £1k bargain last year with a 1990 Pan ... Rare to get but they are about as getting rid of older higher mileage bikes not on the BAB pant wetting classic scale which is often a bit of a PIA...
Stirling back to Aberdeenshire which for us northern folk was a light run to warm it up a bit...😆
 
Clean UK MOT history. I imagine the Swiss are punctilious in annual testing as well…
 
You're trouble you are as I can't stop looking at this myself...😂👌 And I have enough bikes already...😆
Sorry, not sorry 😁😁 it did look a right bargain and you're right I'd give the guy £1200 happily for that. Especially with full luggage!

You could drop Scubamouse a PM as he has a R1150GS he's been meaning to advertise for ages.

As far as I'm aware he still has yet to post it up but could well be in that price range.

Recent MOT & new tyres iirc. Only selling as bought himself a new Triumph

My only worry that being Swiss it would be harder to get though neutral than UK or German versions...🙄😆
 
Raise your budget a little and have a look at the Tiger 955 I have advertised in the other bikes for sale section.
 
a Swiss bike will may make HALF the power a uk bike will make.

£1200 good price .
what rear shock is on it ?
if it has no major faults , it should be a good buy.

I did see that originally. Whereas I would I just don’t want to end up with a second project if the gearbox then decided it completely let go.

I’ve just seen your price bump too. First time sub-1000 has been mentioned.

normally not arsed about high mileage of serviced regularly.
