BMW Other description
2006 BMW K1200R, This machine arrived looking very nice but also as a not ridden often enough and it was simply not running very well. As expected by our technical staff it was suffering from old fuel, a clogged filter and a few other small ills. Upon closer inspection we found some slightly rusty hardware, a fuel strip that was not accurate and a fuel pump that had seen too much sitting verses riding. There was also the issue of a worn out front tire and it being due for a full bi-annual service. We offered the prior owner fair compensation and then set about making it a perfect used BMW, which is exactly what Bob???s specializes in and so we turned the techs and the parts team loose! This one was built by BMW in November of 2005 as a 2006 machine. It was originally shipped to BMW of North America in December of 2005 and then delivered to a retail customer on December 23 of 2006; that sounds like a Christmas gift to us. We are unable to confirm if the person we acquired it from was the first or second owner, but we he told us he was the first and only. The BMW warranty service history tells us that the bike remained in the DC area during its entire life and that a little warranty or service bulletin/recall work was performed by all three dealers in the area.It came from BMW with Integral ABS, Electronic Suspension or ESA II, the On Board Computer and Heated grips. It also has the quickly detached BMW expandable saddlebags, frame sliders, dark tinted BMW screen, the BMW security alarm, a beautiful Sargent seat, white signal lenses and rear Hyper lights.

Cal looking good
Sun, 20 Mar 2011Make no mistake Cal Crutchlow is doing an amazing job during his short career in Moto GP. He is asking not to be compared to Ben Spies but when you consider Spies had three Moto GP races under his belt at the same point in his career, Cal's 8th position in Qatar qualifying then 11th in the race is a pretty solid start. He ended 2010 as one of the best world's best superbike riders but the 800cc Moto GP machines require different riding skills. Watching trackside it is easy to see the the riders have to brake later backshift quicker before getting back on the throttle on the corner entry. With the help of advanced electronics this loads the front tyre earlier giving the potential for greater momentum that continues past the apex to the corner exit and beyond.
