BMW K-Series description
|
"Frau Blucher" needs a new home, persistent back trouble has taken long-distance touring off the menu for me. I've owned her for 6 years and to the best of my knowledge I'm the second owner.
This version of the K1200LT is equipped with about everything that was available at the time, including cruise control, reverse gear, power windshield, heated seats, heated grips, 4 speaker stereo with CD changer, CB Radio, Navigation, security system, etc. The only modifications I've made are a Mayer seat (rider's portion only) and a K&N air filter. Maintenance has been performed religiously using synthetic lubricants, the battery is about 2 years old, (maintenance-free type) tires are Avon Storm Radials with good tread remaining. The coolant, brake & clutch fluid, and spark plugs (Iridium type) have also been changed. Once you remove the 431 screws and strip the bodywork this bike is surprisingly easy to work on. This bike is in good to excellent condition, just a couple of minor cosmetic flaws. The chrome trim pieces on both saddlebags are scraped, caused by driveway mishaps - I've never dropped the bike while moving. One of the fairing "winglets" has some spots on it. That's about it. The paint is nearly flawless, the upholstery has no tears or noticeable wear. No mechanical or electrical issues, everything works as it should. DISCLAIMER - I've never turned on the CB Radio or the Navigation System because I simply don't care about those gizmos, and the NAV system is probably outdated/obsolete at this point. I can verify that the electric windshield, cruise control, heated seats & grips, stereo and CD player/changer and the reverse gear all work just fine. The bike has always been garaged in a dry climate - no rust, no sun fading. I'll be honest - this is a heavy motorcycle and can be a double handful at low speeds, although the reverse gear does make it easier to maneuver in difficult parking spots. The girl ain't much fun around town, but once you hit the open road the magic carpet ride begins. Comfortable, smooth, good power, excellent weather protection, terrific fuel economy (close to 50 mpg in my hands, your mileage may vary) and a range of about 300 miles. It also handles amazingly well on a mountain road, sort of like a dancing elephant, but a graceful one. So what's not to like? I live in Western Nebraska, approximately 2 1/2 hrs from Denver or 1 1/2 hrs from Cheyenne, Wyoming. If you're a long way from here and wish to ride your prize home I'll be glad to meet you at the Denver airport. No extra charge. One last thing - I do ride the bike occasionally just to keep things loose and lubricated, so the odometer reading may change a little. |

New: BMW System 6 Evo helmet
Fri, 12 Apr 2013BMW has released the new System 6 Evo flip-front helmet. It retains the clean lines of the System 6, while increasing levels of comfort and practicality with a more scratch-resistant internal sun visor, a more robust visor mechanism designed to make operation with gloved hands easier, improved ventilation control on the chin, and a revised spoiler for better aerodynamics. BMW says it has a unique chin bar pivot which reduces the size of the helmet when the chin bar is upright. Weighing in at 1.57kg, the ECE 22-05 homologated Evo is a quiet lid, with noise levels registering at 84-86 dBA at 62 mph. The helmet comes ready for installation of the BMW Communication system, offering a Bluetooth connection to the BMW Navigator IV sat-nav, music players, mobile phones and other BMW helmets.

BMW Offers Education in Adventure
Wed, 31 Dec 2008I was never a fan of mathematics in high school. This would be of no surprise to any of my teachers or parents, I assure you. My justification was that none of my instructors could explain the practical applications for such numerical oddities as logarithms, permutations, or binomial theorem.
