Possibly.

this is about the only other BMW that floats my boat.

I want a bike that I can mess with service fettle etc myself.

One a bit closer to home would be nice so that I can get a test ride on

Where do you live, Bob? Midlands-ish?

You thinking of ditching the GSA? (or two bikes)

Are there none in BMW dealers near-ish?

Good bikes, and quick too. I'd be prepared to buy any colour-scheme and repaint to something more "pleasing to the eye" if nec.

Good luck.

No worries Bob, they're only 'bout 20 miles from me and are my nearest (just) dealer, so I can get there most weekends if required, just give me a shout.

Cheers

I live in Berkshire, I would be selling the GSA and just having one bike.

I love the GSA but I really miss fetteling my own bike I am quite handy in the spanner department so I guess I will keep lloking for something nearer.

The GSA is only 6 months old so I guess I will get a good price

Not sure if this is right but from what i can make out

According to InterTran, the Welsh word for 'bollocks' is 'ceilliau', 'cheilliau', 'geilliau', or 'ngheilliau'.

However i would have thought BOLLOX would be close
