OOhh that's just hiked my standard 11S by at least £2500!
Happy days.

I’m just checking it out, I reckon that makes mine @ 9,000 miles work about £12k :shock:

My best guess is it’s not going to sell any time soon.

A touch optimistic on the part of the seller, I'd have thought.
You really need only two tools: WD-40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the tape.

mmm suspicious. Were the RWB Boxercups offered with heated grips? They're the wrong mirrors for a RWB Boxercup. The rest all seems correct

Thought they had a blank on the fairing that popped out if you wanted standard mirrors, it’s the cruise control, didn’t know any 1100s model had that.
It is very nice though.

Its not cheap but the best stuff never is.

Compared with the price of new machinery these days its good value and probably a bit of an investment if its kept in that condition and just used occasionally on a sunny sunday.
