2000 BMW R-Series (2000)
This special motorcycle was Cascade BMW's (of Kirkland WA) trade show and rally bike explicitly designed and built to advertise just about every aftermarket accoutrement (most by Wunderlich, of which many are no longer produced) that could be mounted on this special cruiser.This motorcycle was then taken to Moslander Rod & Custom (www.moslanders.com)which was responsible for the extensive custom fabrication of the many billet and chrome pieces as well as the incredible custom paint job on this spectacular trade show cruiser, featuring paintwork on the tank, front and rear fenders and side body panels.Mosander’s is famous for their exotic fabrications on their Pebble Beach show cars and hold numerous awards, such as the coveted Dupont TopGun Grand Prize award. Included in the auction are (2) three ring binders of laminated documentation of the incredible build history of this special bike. Also included with this auction will be a chrome show stand by Wunderlich and a battery tender.This bike is a real head-turner and will never cease to amaze whether rolling down the boulevard or at a show or rally. Again this special motorcycle is a one of a kind professionally built, painted and maintained piece of rolling art. The OEM black leather side bags are in near mint condition and look great on or off the bike. The mileage on this bike is a very low 19,200 miles which equates to roughly 1,200 miles of use per year. Even though this bike is 16 years old, you'd never know it by it's timeless design and flawless condition. I can't imagine this bike ever depreciating as anyone who sees this one of a kind masterpiece will only lust over owning it for themselves. Now a brief history of the R1200C It was the first close-up look the press had of BMW's initial entry into cruiserdom.2016-06-14 15:49:11Mission, Texas, United States1910,995.00 -

The BMW-Powered Recumbent Motorcycle
Wed, 24 Jul 2013As a lover of two wheels, I like to pedal my bicycle to stay in shape when I’m not riding a motorcycle. And in the bicycle world, much like the motorcycle world, there’s a subset of riders who often get snarky looks from the rest of us. Few are more polarizing than those riding recumbent bicycles — you know, the ones where you’re practically laying down while pedaling.
BMW Quitting WSBK After 2013 Season
Wed, 24 Jul 2013BMW announced it will withdraw its factory support from the World Superbike Championship at the end of the 2013 season. According to BMW, the company will concentrate on its production models including the addition of new small-displacement models and reaching developing markets.
