BMW R1200GS Adventure
So I've been offered a hell of a good deal on a triumph Speed Triple and a 2011 KTM 990 adventure anniversary edition. The catch is I have to take both, still not convinced on moving over to KTM but I would be stupid not to consider the deal. This is me considering it, even though I swore I would never sell my beloved red beast.

It's a 2009 R1200GS Adventure full spec with just over 161000km on the clock, the engine doesn't use a drop of oil and probably runs smoother than the day she left the showroom floor for the first time. I am the second owner since I bought the bike with 85000km, which I then thought was high mileage, little did I know. Say what you want about a boxer, they speak for themselves. Bullet proof. Most of the mileage has been long distance and obviously off road at times. The clutch and pressure plate were replaced at 150 000km the drive shaft at 130 000km and the slave cylinder about 5000km ago.

The bike has:

Top box
Touratech bash plate
Decat original exhaust and down pipe
Power commander
K&N Filter
Hi 3 multi function spots (3000 lumen on bright) Best thing I've added.
Wunderlich handle bar bag
Potentiometer guard
Headlight protector

Still not convinced I want to sell and definitely not giving it away, the bike has been maintained meticulously and still has lots of life left in it. The price R65000 slightly neg.
