"17k miles should be fine.but check all paperwork." If it has been maintained by a BMW dealer in accordance with the reccommened mileage - it should be a very good buy.

people will allways take offers, even £50 off is worth asking for, its not the time of year to be selling

I know of a decent one with a low 38k miles in the for sale and wanted section, for a lot less than that, if only you had paid your subscription, you would be able to look at it

1200gs se or ducati 1098?

hi to everyone. I was going to buy a Ducati but thought i wouldn,t ride it, just polish and pose on it. Saw this wierd looking thing called a R1200GS se at weekend, now nearly 10k lighter, i bought it. Have i done the right thing?

As long as you don't spend all your time polishing it and posing!

A leading question?

UYou know what reqponse you will get as well over 100,000 have been sold.
Why not try the Ducati site for a response with a different bias?
