Another Rockster
Posted: Tue Jul 27, 2021 4:02 am
Hi Guys just picked up another Rockster.
Not bad when you consider in NZ there are only 7 and I have 2.
Got it for NZ $2500.00, cheep. It has done about 57k and it has been sitting in a covered area facing the coast.
A bit of a mess. a fare bit of corrosion, including the forks, bars and more.
Missing the ABS unit and all that goes with it. It runs but has a fuel problem. I would say the piping in the tank is knackered.
Will put a pressure test on it.
The tank is straight with scratches and the decals have shrunk.
All the plastic looks like new and has new tires.
Came with BMW tools, handbook and excellent panniers and rack.
My plan is to do it up which is no problem just time, but does anyone know how I can get aftermarket tank decals.
Both my bikes are the mean green colour.
One of the things that is different is that it has no heated grips or the switch.
Doe's anyone know if some models came without heated grips.
This bike was sold new in NZ in 2006.
Cheers everyone, from covid free NZ
