BMW R-Series description
The last year of the domestically sold airheads. This is my second Paris Dakar, 6th airhead GS (91-95), and the cleanest I have owned. I purchased the bike last April with 12,000 miles on the odometer for a cross-country trip. I put approximately 5,000 miles on the bike, and it served its purpose well. I believe I am the third owner. It runs great and has had a recent tune-up and brake service completed. I told myself that I will always own at least one, and since it is sitting next to a 94 bumble bee, one has to go. The reason for the PD was after my trip I learned that the large tank is simply a novelty that I personally don't need, and I am not too fond of the color scheme. It is definitely a bike for the purists. The bike is in great condition. It has minor wear on the tank where it meets the seat, other than that it is cosmetically very clean, mechanically sound, and ready to go anywhere. It truly is a beautiful bike that has been very well taken care of, always garaged, meticulously detailed, and started regularly, which is precisely the reason I need to sell it. I found myself in the same position as the previous owners, and simply want to keep it garaged. To my knowledge it has never been taken off-road. It runs great and has had a recent tune-up and brake service completed. It is all stock and ready to go anywhere, or be added to a collection. The bike comes with a set of new Touratech Bags that I purchased for the trip, and therefore are virtually new. I will also throw in a black seat cover to replace the hideous red seat. Since the bike is for sale locally, I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Buyer is responsible for transporting fees.

The record February followed another record in January which saw a year-on-year increase of 12.9%.
BMW Helps Vertically Challenged
Tue, 02 Dec 2008No matter where they go or what they do, it seems that people who are vertically challenged always get the ‘short’ end of the stick, pardon the pun. Historically, if a pint-sized person wanted to get into the hobby of motorcycling, their choices were limited to bikes like the Suzuki Marauder, Ninja 250 or HD Sportster (the thought alone makes my back hurt.) BMW Motorrad now has good news for riders who either need or simply prefer a lower seat height, but do not want to compromise on model choice. BMW is the first motorcycle manufacturer to launch a range of models that can be ordered from the factory with lowered suspension – to provide customers with low seat height options.
Naked BMW S1000RR Spotted Testing in Italy – Video
Wed, 29 May 2013Italian 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.
