Without getting too nostalgic or living in fantasy land because you've spent too much on yours, what do you think the current market values are for the good old R100GS ?
I've been offered a 1994 with 60,000 miles. It's pretty tatty. No evidence of any proper maintenance or restoration. But it rides okay and got through an MOT by the skin of it's teeth. I'd need to go right through it.
Cosmetically 5/10. In plain black. It's leaking oil from all the wrong places. I know it's going to need some serious benchtime .
I think the seller is in a dreamworld asking £3500. Because I know as a BMW tech that I could need to spend that again just to get to a good standard after scrutineering.
I've seen some very nice bumblebees with volumes of expensive maintenance receipts of the same vintage changing hands for £3500 recently.
They don't seem to be commanding the price they were a few years ago.
