BMW R-Series description

This is a very nice 2008 R1200GS. It has 16600 mostly highway miles on it. I have taken it on a trip around the country with two people and all gear needed to camp for 2 months without a problem. It was then used it as a commuter bike. 

It is stock with the only addition being crash bars (Twisted Throttle) added after about 1500 miles. Heated grips, computer, abs breaks, cross spoke wheels, hand guards, and on and on. The luggage is stock BMW expandable cases. There is a backrest built onto the top case. The keys (original) operate all of the locks on the bike and luggage. Original manual and tool set under the seat.

Installed brand new battery last year. The tires (Bridgestone Battlax) have less than 100 miles on them and were replaced at the end of last season. Annual maintenance 10 days ago at Harley Davidson/BMW louisville (As you can see in the picture the next maintenance is June 2017). I have records for the bike including purchase price. I am the first and only owner. 

The issues are pictured above. They are cosmetic.

Mechanically and otherwise the motorcycle is in absolutely excellent condition. These bikes run for 120k+ without any major work. It will offer you as many memories as it has me. 

The bike is priced about a thousand under NADA guide value. I will consider delivery for minimal fee up to 120 miles from Louisville, KY. Serious buyers feel free to contact me with questions. Thank you.
