Adventure Bike Rider Forum

Testing the water a bit on this, I built this up around 3 years ago, and sadly never rode it more than 200 miles. I spent a fortune on having the wheels rebuilt, new bearings, tyres etc. It's covered in touratech goodies and some really nice kit. Just under 7k miles on it - surely a future classic. Can't be many good ones left. I just don't have the time to use it (or any of my bikes) so seems a shame to leave it hanging about. It's not mint and does need a few little jobs doing after being sat for a few years.

I'll update with all the details/more pics tomorrow. But I'd be after around the 4k ONO figure I think. Thanks for looking!



THIS IS NOW SOLD

Nice looking bike that, glws. Have you got any spares you want to shift ?

Thanks, no intetesting spares sorry. I have some road tyres, stock headlight assembly, stock exhaust and some fiters but that's all. Used aftermarket parts for these seem rare!

That looks very nice, GLWS

Looking for a good clean, straight no dents, exhaust header ?

Sorry Chunky Butt, I've only got the spare silencer, no header.

Right, so some more details.

Bike is a 2007 Model.
6850 (approx) miles on the clock (all previous MOTS back this up).

Touratech Rack
Touratech extended footplate for sidestand
Touratech brake pedal
Adjustable shifter
Scorpion Exhaust can
Expedition bash plate
3 Litre Aux Aluminium Tank/Mount
Expedition Led Headlight kit, adjustable beam, off-road spot lamp, hi/lo, lexan guard etc.
Tusk Hanguards/indicators

+ Stock headlight, indicators, exhaust and some other bits/bobs.

Approx 2.5 years ago it had wheels rebuilt, hubs/rims painted, new bearings, new tyres etc
Oil change, new oil/air filter and a general once over. It has been used for less than 3 hours since.

There are a few little issues I noticed when pulling it out of storage yesterday.

Slight weep from one of the fork seals, just a little residue on the stanchion when sitting.
Graphics were originally a mock-up to start making printed kits, they are lacquered and applied in vehicle vinyl but not as well finished as a printed kit.
Aux tank is not currently plumbed in.
General scrapes/scratches/marks from off-road use. Bike originally went to morocco with it's original owner so was not always a garage queen. Being picky there's some corrosion on a few bolts/under the engine cases/starter motor and some wear/corrosion marks on the top of the forks - all what you'd expect on a 10 year old bike.
Could use a going over to make sure everything is ok before road use, as it's been in my (dry/heated) storage lockup for 2 years. I took it out yesterday, started first push of the button after a battery charge!

I'd like £4000 ONO, but open to sensible offers/discussion. There are dozens of pics below, showing every mark/scratch/mod/angle. Cheers!

NOW SOLD

Do you have a photo of it directly from behind, say about 8ft off of the ground, looking down on it like a judgemental badger?

I did but the bloody camera deleted most of the memory card, sadly the select few above are all that was left - potential buyers will just have to use their imagination to try to build a picture of how the bike looks for themselves

Got a mate who's interested. I've sent you a pm.

IMO, that's the best looking BMW I've ever seen. The sticker kit's excellent.

GLWS.
