It now has 80 000 km. No shit except the left hand cylinder's timing chain tensioner, which is being replaced with the service on Thursday.
I also have a 1200GS in Centurion, Also 80 000km, replaced the clutch and rebuilt the final drive between 70 000 and 75000km.
One thiong is for sure. If you can get a good 1150GSAm you have an awsome runner.
I can assure you, when most of the 1200's are dead, rebuilt, or buried, the 1150's will still be running. Dont even think of taking a 1200 into Africa proper. To much electroninc and shit that can go wrong. Take a 1150 anyday, it will never dissapoint you. My 2c wurth!
Go look here, what the manne sayspoedvark said:Man that looked like a lekker ride. Thanks for the report.

spoedvark said:Tweets, Thanks for the advise. Like the look of the more modern 1200 but can get a good looking 1150 GS with 86000 km on for R 60 000 neg. 2003 model twin spark motor, Remus pipe on with metal panniers. How does that sound compared to a 2007, 1200 Gs with 33 000 km on for R 90 000 hopefully negotiable?
Want to buy now to last at least the next 10 to 15 years???
Had a 650 GS. Man I enjoyed her. Go anywhere do anything hassel free riding. Awesome bike!
Mr.T said:Ummmm Tweets, Say what 80 000 Km in 2 years & 6 months.
With alllll the electronics & on dirt most of the time & zipppp problems.
Say what, you got to say but leave the 1200 alone. 8)
Answers the question on my email to you about getting a smaller bike for the short hectic runs and a larger bike for the longer trip?Tweets said:spoedvark said:Man that looked like a lekker ride. Thanks for the report.
