Well bought one !

[twg1]

Well after months of looking finally bought one ! Fairly basic in so much no panniers or extras . Only some spots which i need to take a look at the mounting bracket its a little wobbly! A after market screen and just spotted tonight it has a decat !

Its also a non abs bike , has 22500 miles on at .

Now to sort out how to mount a top box , source some crash bars, pannier rails and a can .

Any guidance on whats the best options appreciated have been looking but looks like less people stocking bits for older bikes.

A nice looking ADV with the bigger tank too.... a blank canvas to put your touches to.

Nice looking bike.

That looks brilliant.

Your life will now be defined as pre-oilhead and post-oilhead.

And you're heading into the better part.

Very nice looking Ike. Pity they didn’t show it to the bods who designed the 1300GSA…

Didn’t all adventures come with a larger tank?

You might want to consider the rugged road light mounting bar…..

BMW R1100GS & R1150GS/GSA - Auxiliary Light Mounting Bar

We all know the lights on these BMWs could be better and that many of you like to fit additional lights to your bikes. Designed and manufactured in stainless steel with a bead-blasted finish, the light bar makes it easy for you to fit either 2 or 4 lights to your 1100 / 1150.

No you could order the GSA with normal 22 l Tank rather then the 32 l one…
Just raised suspension, different gearbox and anodised wheels and few different bit and pieces

Hi Paid 4450 for it more than i wanted to spend, considered others but this was simply in better overall condition . But less goodies on it but would rather have a good base to work off

I use to have that choice in my garage but more often than not opted for the 1150 to go out on.
