Daverj it was Williams of Manchester I went to, I’ve looked at Jeffries both at Shipley and Rotherham and they are asking moremoney for higher miles and older bikes....
I’ll wait and make it worth having a crap PX after a trip to Germany, Switzerland, Austria and the Dolomites be

Daverj it’s the bronze colour which I think is very nice (not to everyone’s taste) and the fact it’s not got the grey at the front like the new ones....
Saw it the other week and it’s not got a mark on it so I’m well giddy now for 28th be

Sounds like the same colour as mine - ebony? It's been called black / brown / purple so far. As I'm colour blind I don't care.
One things is for sure though: It is the fastest colour.
Glad you got this sorted - enjoy!!!

Hi
My RT is Dec 2016 and is the 2017 model. Colour is officially described as Metallic Platinum Bronze. I have just had a top box colour coded to match the bike and panniers and the BMW colour code is N97.
Hope this helps?
David
