BMW R-Series description

I bought this slash 2 twenty years ago.  For ten years it was a frequent rider.  I then built a larger displacement conversion, and the slash 2 wasn't ridden as much.  Owned by a BMW certified mechanic, it was serviced and repaired as needed.  It starts easy and runs strong.  All the gears shift through fine.  It received a new clutch, new rings, driveshaft boot and final drive seal about five thousand miles ago. All numbers match.  This bike is original!  Inside of the tank is in great shape.  It hasn't been serviced in about five years, but I have ridden it about ten times in the last three months.  You can see the original used shape it is in as the pictures show. The tank has one small, one smaller and one very small dents, {pictures will show}. Front fender pics will show a larger dent. Left side roundel badge needs mounting screw.  Rear fender has some touch-up on it. 80% of the original paint and stripes are intact. Bike will come as is.  I would feel confident putting 500 miles on it with no problem.  Here is your chance to get hold of a well cared for good running rare classic.  Winning bidder is to pay a non refundable deposit of 500 dollars within 24 hours after auction ends. Final payment will be received by wire transfer or cleared cashiers check. Shipping and pickup are buyers responsibility. I prefer to keep this gem in the country, so auction and shipping are available to the lower 48 states only.

BMW Maintains Sales Momentum into 2014

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

After three straight years of record motorcycle sales, you’d think things would eventually start slowing down for BMW. Instead, the German manufacturer continues to roll on the throttle with an impressive start to 2014. BMW announced sales of 5,438 motorcycles and scooters in January, up from the 4,818 motorcycles sold in the same month in 2013.

2012 BMW C600 Sport and C650GT Scooter Preview

Tue, 08 Nov 2011

While Japanese OEMs persist in their cautiousness, BMW continues its assault on new markets, most recently with its incredible S1000RR literbike. Over the past four years, the German company has nearly doubled its 500cc-plus market share from about 7% to 13%, and the 2011 model year is on pace to set a sales record of more than 103,000 motorcycles. For 2012, BMW enters the lucrative scooter segment with a pair of twin-cylinder maxi-scoots claimed to combine the agility and comfort of a scooter with the riding qualities of a motorcycle.
