Another new visit yesterday:
2014 standard model, so no S model.
Completely stock.
No special options other than:
- centerstand
- heated grips (not installed)
- side lugage (no topcase)
- engine guards
- gps holder on the clamp
Second owner who owned it for about a year now and rode it for 10.000km in that year.
Now 16.000km
No issues and maintained at the same dealer as the 2012 model I visited last weekend.
Dunno, the way this one looks, its alsmost showroom stated perfect as well as the 2012, so its clearly well maintained, mind you, he is a motorocycle cop!
Makes the choise a lill bit more difficult, go for the 2012 with all those options thats makes it go like a 2013/2014?
Or just go for this 2014 model?
And do I really need the electronic suspension?
I've read a lot that the difference can hardly be felt, othe rthan riding to the extreme or with 2up (wich I wont be doing)
Also: Less electronics, less worries.
If his prices wasnt so steep, I'd already get it, dont even wanna testride the Crosstourer for the 2nd time....
He asks 13.000 euro.
He can go down to about 12.000 I think.
The 2012 owner asks 10.000 and can go down...
Should I jump on the red 2014 if I can make him go as low as 11.500??
Or should I take the 2012 for 9.500-10.000 no matter what?
