roadscholar Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 So why don't u buy it???😠Because four is probably enough : ) Although if it was a low mile white '04 I might have to call, the one color I haven't had.. Link to comment

roadscholar Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) Did you have a yellow one? This one on Advrider is looking pretty sweet. I did, an '04 just like that one. But a guy wanted to trade an '07 Monster S4RS for it and I couldn't resist, but it was just too scary so I hardly ever rode it and eventually sold it. If there was ever a motorcycle that lived up to it's name it's that one : ) The cool thing about 2004 1150GS's is BMW offered the last year in all the previous year's colors plus red, the bright yellow, and white. Red is pretty rare but white is really rare, I've only ever seen two for sale and none in person. If one popped up it would get my attention.. Edited April 27, 2018 by roadscholar Link to comment
Richard_D Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Wow, he thinks a lot of that one! It's not even the dual spark . You told me that thing would hold it's value. You idiot! You better get seven five for that thing, honey, or I'm taking the kids and moving home with mother. Pfft, couch experts. Whether he sells it or not right now, with that low mileage it'll slowly increase in value as all the average ones with 80-140k die off. It's one of the best compromises of simplicity, touring comfort, handling, and light off-road BMW ever produced. Ten years from now everyone will be lamenting the good old days when they coulda bought a really nice one for $6500. Had this one about fifteen years and it's still a favorite so I'm probably a little biased : ) Ha ! So I was right. An 04 has the dual spark. Link to comment

roadscholar Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Ha ! So I was right. An 04 has the dual spark. Single spark is not a deterrent on the 1150GS's and R's because the engine is in a different state of tune. They don't surge, at least those I've ridden (of many). Having two of each, surprisingly the '01 and '02 are noticeably smoother and stronger than either twin spark '04's. Bud, classifying them as rolling art somehow works for me. Yeah, art collector, that's the ticket! Different kinds Pat and of course entirely subjective, which is the fun part. You get to chose what you like.. Modern art ('07 S4RS) Classic art (from a buddy's collection) Usable art Future art These things take time gents, it's not for the short-sighted : ) Link to comment

To this day, I regret trading it for an RT. Now back on a white GS! (And yes, it was a dual spark system. I have always coveted the blue and white special edition--very cool!)
