R12gs rebuild project

[Kiwi]

Gidday from New Zealand. I have just purchased a crash damaged 2004 R1200GS. So far I have strippped it down. I have located some good used parts for it and will purchase some parts form my very good local BMW dealer. (Motorad). Wish me luck. Can anyone point me to an online copy of the owners' manual.

Best of luck with the project. If it is any help I have a brand new standard GS screen unused. I ordered my bike with an Adventure screen, and yes in true BMW style I had to pay for both! Imagine ordering a new BMW car and being told that if you order stylish after market alloy wheels you still must pay for standard ones, and with tyres too!.......OOh quite enjoyed that rant.

Anyway it's available if needed, just pm me for details.

ERR... well actually you do! If its not a factory fitted part, then you pay for both.
