*Edited a bit for this year
It’s time unfortunately. I’m just too creaky for it now and I’ve been hooning around on more comfortable machinery.
2006. Owned for eleven years. Two previous.
23000 miles
Heated grips
ABS
12 months MOT from 1st Feb (MOT man said it was very good last year)
Looked after by me
Engine, gearbox, FD oil and plugs changed 2000 miles ago. I did the valves at the same time.
Air filter changed 15 miles ago
New Motobatt battery
All factory recalls done
New Michelin Pilot Road4 on the rear
Pilot road 3 with about 1000 miles left on the front
Standard exhaust fitted but comes with a Remus as well
Powercommander4
Ilmberger carbon hugger (the best and £300 new)
Puig double bubble screen and standard
Factory Ohlins and 5.5” rear wheel
Single seat hump. Rare and expensive if you can even find one. Passenger seat hump as well.
Kellerman tail tidy and LED indicators. Expensive, rare, and very lovely. Standard also with the bike. Small number plate fitted but will come with a standard for the MOT man
There’s a few engine bolts that have gone a bit rusty and the front of the engine casing is just starting to flake again. I painted it some years ago and to be frank, my paint job is holding up better than BMW’s.
As owners know, these are fabulous and I think I’ve done most of my miles blatting across Europe. It’s been great, and I genuinely don’t want to sell, but I just can’t ride it very far without pain these days so it has to go.
£4650 ono. Get in touch. We can talk sensibly.
Bike is in Beaconsfield Bucks. I’m back in the uk from 1st Feb. .

Re: R1200S for sale
Bump for the weekend. I’m going home to France on Monday. If you or anyone you know might be interested this is probably the last it’ll be available for the foreseeable future.

Re: R1200S for sale
A bump and price drop as I’m back in the U.K. for a few weeks as of 21st. Although seeing as Hayden has his almost identical model for sale and is struggling to move it, it seems a little pointless. Too ‘niche’ and wrong end of the year now I guess.

Re: R1200S for sale £4650
A bump for 2023. Yes I still have it. I was in France for the end of 22 so it sat in the garage. I’ll be available from 31st of Jan if anyone fancies a look.
