New to Beamer

Post by Mik »

Hello all, last month got my first Beamer and just love how it handles.
Funny thing is i bought it new from a bike shop ( not a BMW outlet ) here in New Zealand.
It had zero on the clock and had never been registered.
1: Bike advertised as 2021 model.
2: Got a partial loan on the bike and the lending company did a VIN search and it states 2020 model. ( never even crossed my mind to do this as bought the bike from a Large reputable bike shop in Auckland).
3: Bike now registered for the first time 2022. So now when you look the bike up via the rego number the bike is a 2022 year model.
:lol:

Happy safe Riding all🙂

Pleased you’re enjoying your new bike, you’ve got some lovely roads to play on down there. We toured NZ many years ago and loved it.
