2010 BMW R1200GS Adventure
This is the 30th Anniversary Special Edition celebrating 30 Years of GS Bikes. All options except TPM The bike is just back from the BMW dealer, where all factory service was updated. It also had a new fuel pump installed at no charge from the open GS recall. The dealership performed the full service as well as a Texas state inspection. There are no issues of any kind with this exceptional, rare 30-year special edition bike. The tires have approximately 1500-2000 miles of tread left...Everything has been checked out, gone over, and tuned up to perfect running condition. What's included: Three BMW boxes keyed to ignition Original Red Special Edition front and rear seats. Touratech Kahedo X-low front and rear seats. Adventure Designs lower crash bars. Ram Mount for Mobile device with SAE connector. Plastic get-home Key. Single original Key. Owners Manuals. 30 Years GS Special Edition Brochure. Shoei Neotec Modular White Helmet. Scala Rider Headset with FM Stereo and Bluetooth for Mobile phone. Mechanical Issues: None...runs perfectly. At 7000 miles it's just getting broken in. The rear tire will need a shot of air every 3 or 4 days (completely normal on these bikes) Ride Issues: None...Rides perfectly. This is an exceptional road machine that's very happy on dirt roads too. Easily the best bike I've ever ridden or owned...great, great machine. It's never been in deep mud, sand, or gravel. Cosmetic Issues: There are a few very slight curb scrapes on the crash bars....I did not even know they were there until taking pics. The bike's paint, fairing, seats, and plastic are unblemished with only minor wear visible. This bike is an exceptionally clean, babied, good looking GS. Accessories Issues: Right rear can has 4 dents from another GS toppling into it in the parking lot (This bike did not go down). This dents were covered (hidden) by stickers for the last 3 years but I removed them to take the pictures. Helmet has a nick or two, manufactures touch up paint (unopened) is included. Why am I selling? I actually sold it a couple of years ago but decided to keep it after the guy who "I actually don't have the money" backed out. I'm keeping an old Triumph and a couple of dirt bikes...this one isn't getting ridden enough to keep it. This is not an easy bike to part with. I'm an Airline Pilot and I take great pride in the safety, performance, and looks of my equipment. Zero chance I sell you anything I couldn't get on tomorrow and ride to Alaska. This bike has been well-cared for, ridden consistently but sparingly, and everything is in perfect working order. If you are even remotely considering the new water-cooled GS, I"d take a long hard look at history of these bikes and consider paying thousands and thousands less for what is easily every bit of bike (better?) as the new ones. If you're looking at oil cooled models, the 2010 is the first year to sport the new engine, and is virtually identical to the 2013 model.
Questions? I'll respond via email. Please research this bike thoroughly and you'll see what a great value it is. Check my feedback rating. Please don't bid if you don't have any money. I reserve the right to sell this bike locally. Thanks for your time and interest. |

Mon, 23 Nov 2009BMW introduced an inline six-cylinder café racer concept at the 2009 EICMA show in Milan, Italy. Inline-six engines have a staple in BMW’s automobiles for decades and the German manufacturer’s motorcycle division took on the challenge of adapting the straight-six to a bike without making it too long or too wide. The result is the BMW Motorrad Concept 6, and an evolution BMW says “will further expand the K-Series in the foreseeable future”.
