My first S (back in 1999) was an ex-BMW staff bike from Bracknell. Bought it with 600 miles on the clock and sold it a year later with just over 20k showing. Great bike it was and never missed a single beat.


Shame it was dog slow though.

:D

It was one of those moments you needed to be there to appreciate and was posted on the old Yahoo group at the time.

To summarise, it was pissing with rain, on a motorway, going to a group away weekend. Neither of us was going to back off and Gromit lost.

Well, it looks like JC's decided that it was too cheap after all :cry:
The same bike is now advertised at £8495. Funny time of year to put the price up. ersehooles.
