Hi, just activited my account after lurking for 3 months.... so please be gentle.... although i'm used to the ruff and ready world of www.t595.net and www.ukbeg. com.... i also had an R100 RT for many years so am not a stranger to "tossers"
Now i've sold the buell, and the RT but will keep the Triumph.. (i love the Triple...) and i'm looking at buying an old cheap GS... i've seen two R1100's at £1800 and £1895 respectively one is a 96 model year and the other a 97 ... the later model also being a stolen recovered jobbie....
Here is the question for the clever ones...are there any main / significant differances between those years? or when i view shall i just go with the best condition?
both have high mileages.. 51k and 61k... although this does not bother me too much...
I'll be using the bike year round and will tour europe from time to time... the T955i is going to get some "special" treatment as i fancy doing a "cafe racer" job on it... so the GS will become the day to day hack...
Looking forward to some interaction... advice!
