BMW S1000RR. 17 miles Wrought Off:
 
I was at Cadwell Park this weekend and one of the local bike salvage companies turned up with a BMW S1000RR for sale that had been down the road with only 17 miles on the clock on a 60 reg:(

Similar, but more iron scroll work and works well as an ornamental gate!

Shame about the BMW though! Amazing bike.

Any idea what happened?

Pete ;)

There is a rumour about a bloke writing his new bike off 100yards from the shop on '60' day in Coulsdon.

I almost flipped the sv about 25 meters from the shop when i bought it. Hand slipped off the clutch and off i went look for an accident,a nd almost found one within about 25 yards from the shop! :lol:

Meh I dropped mine at an island within 10 miles of riding it! But it already had 700 on

Whoever bought had loads of cash, but not enough skill?

Depends on how it was written off, rider error or other?
