GSA TRIPLE BLACK

[Notsomadmax]

Hi all...

Can anyone who looked at or purchased one tell me what the price of a Triple Black GSA with all the buttons and alloy panniers etc was new on a 2012 plate?

Cheers in advance

It comes in four guises: the R1200GS (£10,595); the R1200GS Triple Black (£11,030), with a fancy paint-job; the Rallye (£12,145), boasting electronically adjustable suspension and devilish Paris-Dakar competition colours; and the Adventure (£11,645), on which – with its giant 33-litre fuel tank and extra-long suspension – you feel you could conquer the world. Between them they accounted for more than 2,000 UK sales last year, with the Triple Black taking the lion's share.
​

Cases were probably another £750 on top.

Rrp for a fully specced TB GSA was higher than that. About 14.5k as I recall.
I paid £11k for my very low mileage TB GSA in 2015! A bargain then!

Some were discounted in 2013 owing to arrival of LC model.

Very low mileage how many if you don't mind me asking? I have the possibility of a 12 plate 951 miles from new but I think the ball park figure Ive been given from the dealer is a quite high.

No worries:
2012 Triple Black GSA. One owner from new, just under 3,000 miles, all the optional extras, 3x alloy boxes (These were slightly used and I suspect not new when the bike was originally bought). "62" plate. I paid £11k from Williams in June 2015.

The bike has done about 35,000 miles now... I love it!
I've had no problems at all, apart from worn out shocks at about 28k.

My rule of thumb is that these bikes devalue at about £1k per 10k miles. Age isn't so relevant if the condition is right: I reckon they devalue at just a few hundred £s per year.

For a 2012 minter with such low mileage, one owner and with a decent warranty, I would happily pay £10k .
You could buy a newer model for that amount, but I rate the late TCs!

well its a minter 951 miles from new £11,385 is the asking!! with Bmw warranty That is pretty much 10,000 mile LC GSA money and I do like them but I feel the tech is getting out of hand....So I'm torn! 951 mile twin cam is a one off without a doubt...

They must have a good margin in that. £1k off?
Especially if you're not trading in.
I think I'd still go for the TC over the LC!

PS. Just realised.... Mine is on a 12 plate...... Could have sworn it was on a 62!

How many miles do you expect to do? Add that to the 1000 miles on this one. Then find the fair price to buy right now. It will be a lot less but you can decide if the low miles premium is worth the money. It does sound a lot to me.

I bought a 2000 mile old 2012 TC GSA from a dealer (mint, fsh, warranty etc).
2 years ago it cost me £11k after haggling.

In comparison your price seems steep two years hence but its lower mileage and is a triple black (slight premium?).

They've got a lot of profit in that. I tink if you waved cash at them and stuck your ground, you'd get that for £10750, possibly less...
