BMW R-Series description
I bought this motorcycle with a bad clutch. This is a very common problem with this bike. I put on a complete new clutch, pressure plate, and flywheel and went through the motorcycle replacing hoses, rubbers, seals and checked the final drive. I also found the fuel pump damaged so I replaced the whole assembly with a new one. The bike rides great now. It has a Throttle Meister throttle lock. It also has a slip-on exhaust with cat eliminator Y pipe. Some of the paint was dull and faded so I had it repainted with a custom Sunset Burnt Orange (see pictures). It looks fantastic on the motorcycle.

Vines motorcycle scrappage
Fri, 17 Jul 2009Following this year’s earlier Budget announcement about the government’s car scrappage scheme, Vines of Guildford BMW has created a similar scheme for motorcycles. Bike owners with motorcycles bought five or more years ago will be given £1,000 off the list price of a new BMW motorcycle when using their old bike as a part-exchange*. Riders just need to ensure they have at least six months MOT left and the bike must be taxed with clear HPI. Just like the Government’s car scrappage scheme has been put in place to help drivers, and the car industry, through tough economic times, Vines of Guildford wanted to offer motorcyclists the same opportunity, to purchase a brand new BMW motorcycle with the benefit of the £1,000 part exchange. As well as enjoying this benefit on the purchase price of a new BMW bike, riders can also look forward to complimentary panniers with all new R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure models, and complimentary Zumo sat nav system with the new R1200RT until 30 Sept, plus access to BMW’s Select Finance options to get riders on their bikes straight away with the option to change their new bike every two to three years.
