New (to me) Deluxe - HERE! - Beemer Guy_imp - 07-30-2016
I had committed to buy a nice 2013 standard from a local guy, but at the last moment I backed out of the deal. I wanted a Deluxe, specifically for the ABS but also those dual pipes, and of course, a 6-speed is nice too. Thanks to a friend who keeps up with these things along with some feedback from the nice folks on this site, I found the bike (from a board member) and we made a deal on Tuesday. Part of the deal was that he deliver it from Ohio to me in NC, and he arrived here Friday afternoon. There were a few minor issues, which we quickly resolved, and now the bike is residing quietly and we hope, happily, in my garage. John was a great guy to deal with and made the deal very easy. Then yesterday I got a PM from Rick (also in Ohio) who offered to help me in any way with the sale. Wow! That was just super nice of him to offer. I didn't need to take him up on it, since the bike was delivered, but that's the kind of camaraderie that makes this hobby such a great thing. It's the people.
Thank you too to all of the board members who helped me get over my hesitation to buy this thing. I love it.
Regards,
Michael
