2018 R nineT Urban GS with approx 10,000 miles (9982 at time of writing, bike still in occasional use until sold)

£7450 or nearest (sensible) offer

Love the bike, but having gone on my first ever proper motorcycle tour in March (1000m though France/Belgium), I have since developed an itch to return to a GS Adventure as I plan to do more long-distance touring



  • 2018 BMW Urban G/S
  • Standard spec - heated grips, trip/info
  • V5C, handbook and 2 sets of keys
  • HPI clear
  • Full service history with 5 service stamps, last one in December pre-delivery to me
  • Fitted with the hand brushed aluminium tank (as fitted to the Scrambler and some other R nineT models) - Having had a Scrambler myself a few years back I’d planned to do this mod myself, so was lucky to find this spec, having been done by the previous owner
  • Silver fairing/mud guard to match
  • Unit Garage Biposto brown gel seat - cost £495 and is virtually new
  • Unit Garage brown leather tank belt/strap - cost £175 and is virtually new
  • Shock Factory ‘M-Shock’ rear sock absorber with black spring (bought Feb ’25) - MUCH better than stock (OEM shock included) and similar quality to Wilburs/Nitron - Cost £400-ish and is virtually new
  • Rear hugger/mud guard (bought Feb ’25)
  • SW Motech centre stand (bought Feb ’25) - makes maintenance much easier
  • Scorpion Rally STR tyres with plenty of tread in them still - off-road look, but a very capable on-road tyre (I had planned to change these when I bought the bike, but have found them to feel and perform similar to a road tyre, performing great on a recent 1000m tour, so they’ve stayed)
  • Stainless engine bash plate
The Quadlock mount shown on the pictures is not included.



The 'less than perfect' bits:

  • tank has some small surface scuffs near the back/seat-end of the tank (see the ebay link and check out the video), but they would be easy to fill/repair and something I'd do if I were keeping the bike. Easy enough to make them disappear
  • Front left fork has some gravel marks - again easy enough to mask and respray and something I'd do if I were keeping the bike - see pics


Available to buy separately, but not included in sale:

  • Speedpro Cobra silencer, satin (sounds amazing, even with the baffle in) (£150)
  • SW Motech Legend Bags and racks (£300)
  • Wunderlich Aktivkomfort solo seat in brown - extremely comfortable for longer trips/touring - virtually new (£150)
  • Wunderlich ‘Rallye’ rear luggage rack (replaces pillion) - virtually new (£150)
  • Wunderlich touring screen (£80)


This is a great looking bike in great condition, commensurate with age and mileage with a great mix of add-ons and accessories, with more available to buy separately.





The bike is listed on eBay too, so may be pulled from sale

It’s in the title of the post, but I’ve added it to the description - £7450 or nearest sensible offer
 
Bank holiday weekend bump

Getting right to it, my bottom end is £7000
 
No longer for sale.

I’ve decided it’s such a lovely bike that I’m gonna keep it.

If I tour it’s only ever gonna be 1000m or less over 3/4 days and on my recent trip it was perfectly capable

Gonna research aluminium panniers and some hand guards though :)
 
No, sadly not - I sold it about 18 months ago

Funnily enough, the 'new' owner has it up for sale!

The description made me laugh... "spent around £8,000 on customizing everything you see, including adding heated grips for comfort and upgraded bulbs for better visibility."

He certainly did none of the above... nor did it cost £8k!!! :)
 
Nice.

I had the Turban but chopped it for an Indian.

Still have my Scrambler.

Great bikes, if you want a tail tidy to aide the sale let me know, new one gathering dust(y)

Thanks bud, but I’m good - I’m keeping the bike
 
If you want a tail tidy give me a shout. No charge.
