2007 1100s maintenance Posted: Tue Jul 30, 2013 12:21 pm |

I kinda like both. Day rides on the weekends while you plan the next trip, whether it is 3 days or 2 weeks. Just being on the bike and letting the pains and pressure of the job drain away.

I agree with everyone else. You have a lot of margin to get it in great shape and still be in the bike at a very good price. Buy it and go to work. Good luck.

Buying first Multi Posted: Sun Jul 07, 2013 10:25 pm |
| The one on this site for sale at $8,900 is an incredible price. It is an '07 1100s with 1,900 miles. If you can afford it, that should be your bike. Fly to IL and ride it home. I have done that now ... |

The gel seat is better than OEM. Mine had it. I got a sale price deal on my RMC seat, so went with it, as had his seat on my former bike - BMW K1200GT.

| My 1100s is comfortable on the straight highway. Well, it is comfortable now that I have a Rick Mayer Cycle custom seat on it. The stock seats have limited padding. |

You are on the right track - have to get the service dept. to play ball with you. Maybe a bottle of his/her favorite adult beverage. I have done that before to repay a "hook up".

I keep my tank full in the garage and ... |
