Re: Low milleage Multistrada, any hints to search for?

Hi

I always find that you can get the previous owners details from the registration document, get his phone numbers from the phone company and ask the guy questions

I have been phoned in the past and was happy to tell the truth about the bike

Hope that works where you are

Re: 749s owner looking for a change

Re: Multistrada 1000 as first Bike?

hi rob
I was going to say that it would be fine to get the 1000 as a first bike. I had 3 months on a sport 600 4 on a vfr and 3 on a new mad 600 before moving away from the dark side into the light.

Re: buying ex-demo

Hi Guys

I bought an ex demo MS for 6300 with 128 miles on it.
Yes I was worried that as an ex demo every man and his dog would have jumped on and thrashed it to death. But the price convinced me as it gave money for carbon bits screens seat termi panniers etc.
So I am not too fussed now
I think the ...
