I'm looking to get a second bike to sit alongside a Street Triple. I'll use it for occasional touring and two up riding with my wife, probably 1500 to 2000 miles a year.
I've narrowed the search to two bikes, both 2007.
The R1200RT is owned by an instructor and has been very well maintained (paid for by the Riding School) is cheap but has done 70,000 miles. I've not seen it in the flesh yet but it looks very clean and the bloke selling it says its in good condition runs well etc and it looks good in the photo's.
The K1200GT has only done 25,000 miles but is much more expensive, 3 times the price of the R1200
Both bikes are SE models with all bells and whistles, BMW panniers & top box, ABS, Traction Control ESA suspension etc
Question is, which one would you buy? My spannering skills are zero and any maintenance will need to be carried out by a garage.
