Ok, so heres the deal. Ive been bike less for way to long and its time for a GS1200.
But, now my question is: What year model and what km would be a good number taking the following into consideration.
The reason for asking is because the bike would be a toy as I would not be using it for commuting purposes and see myself doing 3000-4000km max per year ......if it was a good year of biking taking my current circumstances into consideration in regards to time.
Therefore the advice needed.......do I buy a newish GS with low km’s for +-R115k or one an older one with higher km for +-R85k and upgrade later when I’ve got more time?
So final conclusion:
What is the oldest model I should look at?
What is the highest km I should look at? BMW FSH is an obvious must for me
