I am going to buy a new one :)

[nadeem]

Is it possible that there's more than one point of view on things...? Why don't you boys try & see that - not everyone has to do as you do & vice versa.

Well, 6 months left on my warranty ...
I am thinking about selling my bike and... buy a new one (grey !)
Am I the only one thinking about such a move?

Your money... your choice... your decision.

If you've had warranty issues with your current bike then I can understand your concerns, if you haven't - then I would keep your existing bike.

I bought the GS as a keeper. I hope to riding the thing for 4 or 5 years at least.

Don't think that will get you off the hook. When I sold my 1150GS after 4 1/2 years, I came in for all sorts of abuse for jumping on the latest fad.

(Mind you when I changed to the RT after 15 months on the 1200, no comment received at all). At least you lot could be consistent.

Well said ...also considering the extended warranty way..

 

[pogo]

Explain a bit ?
Warranty extension does not exist in France. If I can get a new one for €2000, why would it be that stupid ?

I dont think your are gona have a new one for "only" 2000 euros

Even if the resale value is good for a BM, I would say rather 3-4000 euros you will need to put down for a brand new grey one....am - I right?

I will know that by tomorrow...
If it is more than 2000 euros (all included), there is no way I make the move.

Machine Cat,

Don't worry about those poor bastids that have to stick with their toys for a long time...

Fact is, a bike is never a sound investment... It's a money pit, and that's a fact. If you feel it's time for a new one, and you have the chance to do it - just go for it.

"Regret things you've done and not things you didn't do" Life's too short anyway.

You were right. Best offer I got was 3500 euros
Way too expensive... I guess it was not such a good idea.

...I asked when the bike was in for its 18k service.....it was going to cost me £4k for a new one. Funnily enough I'm keeping my current one for a while longer.
