Just to state the obvious (again?) BTW, but ANY boxer BMW will go for stacks more than a K-series. No reliability or eocnomy reason, it's the beardy, Sam Browne wearing BMW owners club prejudice (not that I have anything against Beardists). Get a newer one and you're paying the Ewan'n'Charley premium.

Hence they aren't actually good used buys...

For 12 miles, why not just a C90? I occasionally take the trials bike to work - 20 miles on A roads no problem, as no bugger will drive more than 40mph down them anyway. Buy and insure for £150...

C90 - Imagine if somebody saw me on it Remember, scooters are like fat birds, great fun to ride as long as nobody finds out!!

Thanks again for all the help, few good chices there, just depends what comes up cheap locally.





If you're not living life on the edge you're taking up too much room.
