Very smart. Do you have the panniers for it too, since the rails are fitted?
Cheers,
Paul

Hey Paul
Yes have the panniers - with both city & touring lids!
Also has original BMW workshop manual, Haynes version of the same, original owners manual, and the centre paddock stand, although going to add a support to the RHS of that as it feels like it would tip a bit easy.
I’ve got an ABBA stand so may just get the fittings for that - their site does say on fitting remains on the bike??

I think I have the right hand fitting for an ABBA stand. Does it not just use what comes with the stand for the L/H side?

That really is a beautiful bike, stunning in fact, it looks like new.
Rare to see one without a rear hugger but it looks much cleaner.
Is it very low mileage?
edit:- just seen your other post with mileage!
