Certainly an appreciating asset - if he realises his asking price..............

£16,000 :shock:

True...............

That's crazy money! Remember there was one (poss the same one) - where the owner was looking for £26k?

They are special bikes, though - they fairly "tramp-on" :twisted:

When I bought my GS, Barrie Robson had a used RWB in - wanted £17 000 for it

They are stunning Andy - local stealers had one a few years back for just under £11 000 but couldn't afford it. Have you found anything yet Andy?

Seem to be for collectors in the main. Asking strong money.
I've noticed the mileage on a few bikes creeping up, naturally enough with some usage. But for me once they hit 5 figures it is no longer a collectors item and the asking price is fantasy. Its a pretty bike but it isnt that great to ride.
I wonder if at some stage the price will drop on a bike with say, over 16 or 17k miles on it. The big service is at 30k yes?
I dont think i could drop 14k on one since the HP4 can be had for less.

I think the final word from BMW on the 30k overhaul - is that the extent of the work depends upon the usage. Normal road use will apparently minimise the work required.

Mine is now 8yrs old, and done only 4,500m... :oops:

Plenty of life left............. :wink:

It's a motorsport livery (less of them) plus the slipper clutch, etc... the price is still high IMHO, but I've seen worse.

Correct.
I was talking to my mechanic in Italy in September and he said that, most probably, if the bike is used normally on the road the work required is minimal (just a bit more than a usual service).
If the bike has been racing... another story.

I know a guy (on another forum) who did more than 50k km on the HP2. I don't remember him saying that his 50k service was horribly expensive.

Mine has 6k miles right now. I do around 1/1.5k miles a year on it... there is plenty of time still. :D

Without delving into that site - I'm assuming that bike had zero miles on it??
