BMW K-Series description

If you've never seen one or heard of this bike, you should do a search and look it up. THEY DO NOT COME UP FOR SALE VERY OFTEN.  A true collectors bike. Starts easily and runs, drives, shifts and stops well. All of the lights and electrical work as they should and the ABS shows functional. Mileage will adjust slightly as it gets ridden.  It has a couple of flaws which I would be happy to explain via phone.  The blue body work is all original and in very good condition, the silver portions were originally yellow but was professionally done in silver.  This is the main thing that keeps this bike in the 4 digit price range. Brand new battery and fuel pump.  I also have code correct BMW Laguna Blue touch up paint. Tires have over 75% tread.  Fork seals do NOT leak.   

So I know everyone says they have a rare bike...this one actually is. There were only 6,921 ever produced and only 671 brought into the US. This bike is the 3rd bike (by VIN #) ever brought into the states. It is a 1 owner bike that has 15,060 original miles on the odometer and is in very good condition. I have a set of stock silver BMW K1 decals to go with the bike.  As aerodynamic as this bike is, it is definitely NOT a flying brick!

Check your vintage bike price guides and look at the current value and this is for sure one bike that will NOT depreciate. This is the first model of motorcycle to offer ABS and this bike has that option. It also has a very rare option on it, the black engine covers which were made for the Swiss market for sound and heat dampening. They were $850 and I've only ever seen 1 picture with them in it...they are in excellent condition with all tabs and mounting screws intact.

I have researched this bike and can tell you lots regarding it's history, provenance and condition and am willing to answer any questions or need specific pictures. I've also got some extra parts...clear open title. Please use the VIN # if you wish to investigate on your own.

BMW Concept e Electric Scooter Revealed

Tue, 13 Sep 2011

This post has been updated with new photos thanks to BMW finally getting around to moving its concept models off the show stage and out to the better lit outdoor exhibit area. Details are still to come but these are our first pictures of the new BMW Concept e electric scooter. The electric maxi-scooter concept rode onto BMW’s main presentation stage along with the Husqvarna E-go youth-oriented electric motorcycle concept.

Naked BMW S1000RR Spotted Testing in Italy – Video

Wed, 29 May 2013

Italian site Motociclismo.it has published a video of what appears to be a naked version of the BMW S1000RR being tested on public roads in Rovereto, Italy. The test model was dressed in camouflage and appears to be close to being ready for production, especially compared to the earlier prototype spotted testing last summer. We expect BMW will officially unveil this S1000RR-based streetfighter at either the Intermot show in Cologne, Germany, or the EICMA show in Milan, Italy, later this fall.

Hi-Def video of BMW S1000RR on the dyno

Mon, 15 Mar 2010

THERE'S SOMETHING rather cruel about ringing the nuts out of any bike on a dyno - a bit like poking a lion through the bars of a cage with a long stick... Anyway, not quite sure where I'm going with that one, so here's a rather lovely clip of BMW's much-lauded S1000RR getting a stationary pasting on a dyno. Not sure I'd be standing at the rear, mind you.
