I Bought The CHEAPEST BMW GS I could find on the internet | Oilhead BMW R1150 GS adventure bike Ep 1

I bought the cheapest BMW GS I could find on the internet. It's a 1999 BMW R1150 GS Oil head and In this video I show what I check when buying a used motorcycle. I've bought it as a project motorcycle so that I could start adventure motorcycle riding and become an Adventure Bike Rider, bringing another element to this channel. I need to mention I bought it off the internet without seeing it for £2295 and this was the cheapest at the time and that's because It had no service history with it, so this is all a new experience and an exciting one at the same time. This is Episode 1 - I document the condition of the motorcycle project to see if it is actually as good as it looks or If it's going to need a lot of work. Thankfully, as far as motorcycle projects go, it doesn't need anything substantial with regards to work but will need a good deep service and will need all the rusty parts replaced. www.motorworks.co.uk - is where I have been buying the parts for this project. I am not affiliated with the company but I have had a good experience with them so thought I'd share.
