BMW K-Series description

2012 BMW K1600GT - Excellent Condition - LOW MILES located in Atlanta, GA 30303

I am selling this magnificent pony for an old friend.  He is retired and is not interested/capable in distance trips anymore and is giving up the keys to the next owner to enjoy.  Bike has always been kept in a garage.  I took the bike for a 500+ mile trip a few weeks ago and it is addicting how smooth and fast it is.  The color and stance of this machine really turns heads any where you go.  This model is built with a lower center of gravity, making it a lot easier for guys like me with a 29in inseam to ride comfortably. As I have prepared for this listing, I hate to sell it, but I cannot afford to buy it and keep it for myself.  If this listing does not sell, I am going to prepare my bike to sell for cash towards keeping this one for myself.  You may or may not know, BMW motorcycles usually breaks in at around 40,000 miles and has many more miles and a lifetime of enjoyment remaining.  You are smart to buy a slightly used bike because most of the depreciation has already been incurred by the previous owner.  Original list price on this bike new at the dealership was over $24,000.  Bike is ready for a fly in and ride to it's new home if you want to save yourself some shipping.  Everything on the bike works in perfect condition:
 

Xenon Headlights

Cruise Control
Heated both passenger and rider seats and handle grips
ABS, Electronic Suspension Adjustments
Electronically adjustable Z-Technik windscreen
7 gallon fuel tank rated at 50+ miles/gallon
Built in blue tooth Garmin GPS navigation paired with speakers on dash

Speakers to pair with radio/satelite radio/phone radio or phone music

Michelin Pilot Road 4 GTs
New rear brake pads during summer of 2015

Tue, 14 Jun 2022

BMW's electric future may have a nod to its past BMW released its second electric scooter earlier this year in the CE 04, and has made clear it plans to produce more electric two-wheelers in the near future. Oliver Zipse, chairman of the board of management for BMW AG, recently went as far as to say BMW Motorrad will introduce a new electric two-wheeler every 18 to 24 months, with the next model coming in 2023. While the initial models will be scooters or “urban mobility vehicles,” BMW is expected to eventually add electric motorcycles to its lineup.

South West Motorcycle Show 2010, August 28th & 29th

Tue, 17 Aug 2010

Need something to do on August Bank Holiday weekend, then read below: "Although the South West Motorcycle Show has been running at the Westpoint Arena for the last sixteen years, 2010 is the first year that the show hosts the all-new Vertical Trix European Stunt Championship. The show contains all the usual attractions that have been delivered to motorcyclists from over the south-west and further afield since 1994 – including all the appropriate trade stands, and with strong support from local dealers – plus attractions such a a dyno on site, restaurant, bar, bike displays, live music and of course the live action arena. Although the action in the show arena has previously been stunt displays, rather than a full-on competition.
