Thinking of upgrading

[Winston Smith]

The GSA was even more awful and not what I recalled from the last time I rode one - Adventure bikes are NOT for me!

Sooooooooooooooooo......................

[Kwikasfuki]

So the BMW 1600 GT?

[Winston Smith]

Yupp!  Offered a 'too good to miss' deal on the GS and my GTR.

[Lonewolf]

Excellent, you did say you loved that bike. Good for you,

[Rusty]

Oh nice one Winny .. that IS good news .. I remember you saying how much you liked it ... I look forward to hearing your long term professional reports on it ... model ? New ? Colour ? I am smiling for you mate ... especially as June is fast approaching. 

[Winston Smith]

Cheers Rusty and LW!

I will be sorting the fine details tomorrow.

It will be a new one in Vermillion Red, all the toys, with top box - GT model, rather than GTL, a little bit 'sportier'.

Will miss my beautiful GTR, but I am sure the GT will fill that gap!

The giraffacycle is going tomorrow as deposit - good riddance although there is nothing fundamentally wrong with it, it's just not me!

Can I still come on here please?

LW will you still ride out with me?

Does anybody want any of the goodies off the GTR at a good price? 

[Kwikasfuki]

Congrats on the new ride Chris.

What accessories are you selling and how much?

[Lonewolf]

Winston, yes we can still go for a ride as long as we stay away from Wolfies Corner!

So which bits are you selling then?

[O.C.]

Bloody turncoat... traitor.......I'll never speak to you again.............. how could you...are ya fkn mad.......have ya lost yer marbles...........

Chris....I knew you'd hate the GS and the GSA for that matter, and I know you've harboured a desire for the 1600 for some time. I hope that you enjoy the bike...... and don't even think about not coming on here.

As for riding out with us GTR types...forget it...you've been Black balled and sent to Coventry 

I'll ride out with you anytime 

BTW pics of the new steed would be good 

[Rusty]

That Vermillion is so nice .. almost Burgundy with a bit of sparkle ... LOTS of photos Winny ... remember, we like photos !!! 

[Winston Smith]

Don't know what P&P will be.  If interested let me know and I will get a price for post.

[Lonewolf]

Chris, the SW Motech mounting ring, is there any reason why that wont fit a 2010 + model?
If it does, I'll have it. Pretty please.

[Winston Smith]

Should fit OK.  The spacer was to clear the 'ash tray'.

[Kwikasfuki]

Some bargains there.

If I had a top box I'd be going the rear plate

[Winston Smith]

May also have a K top box too
