Hi all,
After much dithering and medically-related delay, I'm interested in buying an 1150 RT, and have seen what appear to be very reasonable bikes with under 30k miles on them. All with FSH.
I've heard that these should be avoided because of potential mechanical issues, clutch specifically, and that 50k should be a minimum as any issues will have been identified and dealt with by then.
I've looked for a buying guide online, but there doesn't appear to be any consistency.
I'm looking to do a big trip across the US next year, so would be looking to get some preventative maintenance done beforehand.
Any thoughts ? I'd be very grateful for any advice anyone can give.
Cheers all,
Matt
