BMW R-Series description

For sale is my low mileage, well equipped 2011 R1200GS. It is one of the Special Edition triple black models which includes a sapphire black body color, black cross spoke wheels, asphalt grey metallic swing arm, rear frame and valve covers and black front forks and engine. The Special Edition includes the Premium Package equipment - Enduro ESA (electronic suspension adjustment), ABS, heated grips, on-board computer, hand protection and saddle bag mounts. It's a great looking bike.
Seasoned riders know that while the GS provides an excellent starting point it needs a few goodies to be well equipped. I've stayed with high quality after market suppliers to make this bike highly functional and practical. No bling here. Add-ons include: AltRider crash bars AltRider skid plate Pivot Pegs (MK3 wide) Rox pivoting 2" handlebar riser Kaoko cruise control Garmin ZUMO 550 GPS with hard wired mount and a Centech fuse panel Battery Tender charger with a direct battery connector Touratech large side stand foot Touratech pannier top bags Touratech Kahedo low seat BMW vario panniers BMW Motorrad large tank bag BMW Motorrad large softbag tail case Wilbers WESA front and rear suspension (see below) The add-ons cost $5,800. I've been riding motorcycles for 52 years so I know what I want and how I ride. I'm also "vertically challenged" so over the years I've done many variations on seat and/or suspension tweaks. On a tall bike like the GS I didn't want to be paddling around on the soles of my feet. The standard GS suspension is just OK so I went with a custom Wilbers setup. I encourage you to check out their reviews. I was able to drop the suspension 65 mm (about 2.5 in) while improving the ride and maintaining complete ESA functionality. In the real world this means any rider with about a 30" inseam or less (down to about 27") can flat foot this bike through seat/suspension adjustments. The bike still has plenty of ground clearance. Even an expert, aggressive rider would have difficulty dragging the pegs. I am also including the original BMW shocks/springs and seats. I'm in my sixties now and have realized I just don't ride like I used to. The bike is in outstanding condition mechanically and cosmetically. No accidents or drops. The only mark is a minor scuff on the left side pannier cover from a klutzy parking move. I'm located about 30 miles from Knoxville, TN and will do anything reasonable to help with delivery. Inspections are welcome. Please contact me if you have any questions. |

BMW Bounces Back with Record August Sales
Thu, 06 Sep 2012When BMW released its second quarter report last month, the company reported a 4.2% decrease in BMW and Husqvarna motorcycle sales due mainly to a struggling European economy. The economic woes persist but BMW appears to be recovering, reporting a new sales record for the month of August. BMW reports sales of 7,400 motorcycles and scooters in August 2012, a company record for the month and an 11.3% increase from the 6,646 units sold in August 2011 and 14.7% more than the 6,405 units sold in August 2010.
BMW Makes ABS Standard Across Entire Lineup
Tue, 03 Jul 2012BMW announced it will make anti-lock brakes standard equipment across its entire lineup starting with the 2013 model year. The German manufacturer became the first to introduce ABS into serial production motorcycles in 1988 and now 25 years later, BMW will be the first to offer ABS across all of its models. BMW has already announced two 2013 models that will come with ABS, the updated F800GS and the F700GS.
2023 BMW S1000RR Review - First Ride
Thu, 29 Dec 2022Bavarian Bullet Credit: Photos by BMW Motorrad/Markus Jahn and Jörg Künstle It scarcely seems possible that BMW Motorrad’s lineup-leading S1000RR sportbike actually made its official public debut a whole decade and a half ago in April 2008, with deliveries beginning the following year. Even though 15 years is a long time, especially in the Superbike arena, where serious players like BeeEm, as well as Ducati, Aprilia, and the Japanese, don’t stint on investing in fast-moving high-end technical R&D in pursuit of engineering excellence, the German brand’s first-ever customer motorcycle with a transverse-mounted four-cylinder has maintained its leading edge reputation for both mechanical and electronic innovation ever since then, and the newly introduced latest version is no exception. This is because, for the coming 2023 model year, BMW has essentially uprated its existing volume production version of the bike by transplanting a good chunk of the array of technical upgrades available until now only to around 1,200 well-heeled or well-sponsored users of the M1000RR, the uber-expensive, uber-performing version of BMW’s street-legal superbike that’s been on sale for the past two years, essentially as a homologation special for Superbike racing.
