I am looking at these 2 bikes and can´t decide. The Triumph has 36K mi and owned/maintained by a Triumph officianato. 2001 BMW has 60K mi w/ 2nd owner, was inspected by a dealer and all it needs is standard preventive maintenance and fork rebuild and seal replacement. Dealer recommends BMW over Triumph due to reliability. BMW is $5k and Triumph is $2500. Seems like a no brainer, but why am I still considering the Beemer?
