2013 BMW R1200RT

The bike is in great condition with Michelin Pilot Road 5 GT tyres (good tread). No damage; only scuff marks on both sides from heal rub (see pics) and a couple of marks on one pannier (see pic). A beautiful sublime and relaxing to ride, possibly too relaxing for me. The bike comes with fitted ...
