BMW K-Series description

This K1200s is in excellent condition.  Always garaged, never dropped, never abused, never tracked.  I bought it from the original owner in 2012 and he had put 8500 miles on it.

The K1200S has a forkless front suspension known as Duolever.  Very smooth over expansion joints on the interstate.  The engine is a transverse four making 167 HP.

I have been riding 38 years and this the best bike I have owned, ever.  I have had five other BMWs in the last 30 years, including an airhead R65, an R1100S, an R1150RT, a F800St, and a S1000RR; the K1200S is my favorite. The bike is very fast, very smooth, has great ABS brakes, and can carry all your stuff for touring.

Accessories included:  BMW saddlebags, BMW tank bag, Garmin Zumo 550 with XM antenna, Touratech GPS lockable mount, two additional power sockets, Remus muffler, blinking LED brake lights, and bike cover.  All recalls and service have been done, including the cam chain guide. A new fuel strip was installed in May under warranty, and that repair will be under warranty until May, 2018.  Oil is fresh, tires are good. Bike is pictured with stock exhaust; Remus is now on the bike and looks much better than stock.  Stock muffler included.

This bike is ready to go anywhere.  Looks great, sound great, rides great.  I'm selling because I am no longer riding.

Transport Canada Recalls 2013 BMW R1200GS for Traction Control Bug

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

The 2013 BMW R1200GS hasn’t arrived in showrooms yet and it’s already been subjected to its second recall in Canada. Fortunately, this means the problems should be corrected before BMW‘s updated adventure-tourer gets delivered to customers. Earlier this month, Transport Canada announced a recall for the new R1200GS for a potential transmission oil leak.

Used Review: Arai RX-7 Corsair helmet

Thu, 01 Apr 2010

This is the lid that saved me from a face full of road and stopped a big bacon slicer (a front disc) from carving a canyon in the top of my head.  This helmet was transformed from gleaming white accessory to scrap when I got back from taking the new BMW S1000RR to Morocco. A pedestrian ran into me from behind a bus and the two of us hit the ground. She’s okay and so am I apart from getting knocked out and breaking my shoulder.
