Re: Just put a deposit on a R1200R classic

Congratulations - came across one in Bangkok recently and tried to buy. Owner wasn't interest at any price and I'm not surprised - beautiful machine! Enjoy and ride safe.

Many thanks - it seems clutch, clutch master cylinder leaks, and ABS should all be checked thoroughly.

Buying 2004 R1150R - what should I look for?

I have arranged to view and test ride a 2004 R1150R. It has done 25,778 km and reportedly has a full BMW service history.
Can someone advise key items to look for when I inspect the motorcycle?
Many thanks
