I am reluctantly considering selling my much loved 1100S following a cycling crash last year which has caused me ongoing wrist pain....
It is the 'Sport' model with the 5.5" rear wheel and yellow shock.
42.5k miles, though still in use, so may rise.
It has full BMW panniers including 'City lids'.
Original and Sargent sets (Sargent would need slightly modifying due to below):
Modified 24l (pressure tested and used for touring) tank. (Range now 250+ miles).
1500 miles on Front Michellin Pilot Road 4
Probably about 2.5mm (centre) on rear Pilot Road 4.
Paddock stand.
Double bubble screen and original screens.
F + R huggers.
Givi Monorack.
Heated grips.
Either maintained by myself or previous owners or dealer - history of this.
Satnav mount.
Y piece.
Seat cover.
Haynes manual.
Footpeg extender kit fitted. (original screws kept).
Slight cosmetic damage to front mudguard.
MOT due 5/2020.
Previous owner had caused slight damage to RH rocker cover (though it has protectors). Cosmetic only no oil leak or warpage.
Needs 'Minor' service, but not sure if someone on this forum who is interested in the bike would prefer to do it themselves to their own standards. (Priced to reflect that, though I could get a dealer to do it and add a stamp, but would add £150 to advertised price).
Looking for around £2550.
Please PM me if interested....

Hello Karl,
Before selling, for what seems a good price, why not try moving the bars above the yoke to see if that helps?
Cheers,
Simon.

As well as moving the bars to above the yoke, try turning them upside down (and swapping them over). Your wrists will be much straighter then.
