I am a sucker for state auctions.  I never knew the chaps in Michigan rode these.

They also have Tahoe's and Chargers if interested.

That's the auction I bought my Sprinter from.

The hood deal is weird.

Converting them to the dual seat version might be a bit of a PITA as for some reason, most of the surplus ones I've seen still seem to keep the hump in civilian life. Also, the cases don't look like the stock BMW cases, so converting to those might not be that easy either.

That said, if the price stays anywhere near it is right now, it's not a bad deal.

42k miles on a 2015.  I was unaware there was that much bike weather in MI to rack up 10k miles a year in daylight hrs.

They probably expanded the definition of biking weather to "less than a foot of snow".

That's a lot of bike for the money, I'd keep it blue and keep the cases as is.  I notice that they have an anti-sniping feature, that's interesting.  Never saw that before.

Four days left on the auction, it's likely going to sell for a lot more than the current bid.
