Zitat von fred_jb im Beitrag #45Zitat von Tony101 im Beitrag #43 I'd be a bit anxious too. I know it's unlikely, but if the dealer goes tits up between now and March, what's the status of your bike? [/quote] I'm in the same situation - I've paid a £500 deposit on the new bike, and agreed to take my old bike to them after the holiday and leave it on their premises, but will not transfer ownership of it until they find a buyer otherwise I would be an unsecured creditor and lose the value of my trade-in as well as the £500 deposit should the business go under. I paid the £500 deposit by credit card so should be protected and get that back should the RS not materialise! If they find a buyer for my old bike before my RS is available I will only transfer ownership if the agreed trade-in value is transferred to my bank account first. If the dealer goes under before they sell my old bike, then the bike will still be my property and I should get it back from the bankruptcy administrator, though there would probably be some delay, but I will risk that. If the RS arrives before they sell my bike, then no problem I will just transfer ownership of my old bike and pay the outstanding balance to complete the deal. [/quote] Wow, i'm off to the dealers when they open tomorrow to get my deposit back quick. not !!  Ged

Zitat von Stefan S. im Beitrag #47 I'll be watching out for these to see if all the extra parts I fitted on my 1200 like the MoMa pieces and the Akrapovic will also fit on the 1250 since the engine block is different on the latter. The MV risers, Puig screen and Wunderlich saddle can be switched quite certain, I assume... |

Zitat von Harry im Beitrag #50 was that a cheaper option that going for the exclusive (blue version) with some of the added packs to make it the same or did you just prefer the colour? thanks. Graham

Zitat von Harry im Beitrag #52 I had that dilemma, but still went for the blue, i have had so many black bikes, they look superb but keeping them clean is a nightmare, and they show every minor scratch, but do look good when polished  Ged

Zitat von boxter im Beitrag #53Zitat von Harry im Beitrag #52 I know Ged I have reservations about the black one purely for the reasons you stated and I'm not a great one for keeping bikes clean, the good news is the dealer said my deposit was transferable so I could still change to the blue one if I prefer. |

Zitat von midlife crisis im Beitrag #55 They said they could value my bike now in which case I would have to leave it with them or wait until nearer the time of delivery, I will hang on to my bike for the time being. I just used the configurator on BMW's site Black with all 3 packs plus luggage rack £15,085 the alarm would add another £220 and the sports seat a further £35. I did prefer the old system with the basic model, Sport and Sport SE which meant you could choose to have all the bells and whistles without resorting to choosing different packs. My current bike is the Sport SE so I would like the new one to be of similar spec hence all 3 packs. |

Zitat von Harry im Beitrag #56Zitat von midlife crisis im Beitrag #55 I agree, I have the sport SE plus the alarm which i think was the only thing not part of the sport SE. The quote for your new bike is close to my quote of £15,462 with the extra so about £130 more. don't like this mix and match linked to colour of bike, only one i think I would have is the blue one. I will wait till I test ride the new bike and then make a decision and fight for the best deal if I am so impressed that the new bike is better. hope all goes well with your new bike purchase and you get it as soon as possible Graham

Zitat von Boxerboy im Beitrag #59 No Nigel,I'd never buy another bike off them even if they were the last motorcycle dealer in the world. I was feeling a bit lonely and it was nice to talk to someone different 
I want it all and I want it now.
