BMW R-Series description

1996 R1100GS - Very Nice!

47xxxk miles (currently riding)  Excellent running.

Details:

Recent Metzler Tourance on the rear (1000 miles on it or so); 

Recent rear shock by Progressive Suspension ($$$ - also about 1000k on it);

Soft touring bags that saddle over the sides of the tank;

Givi Windscreen

Some other extras in a box - throttle lock, grab rail . . .

Corbin seats -  both rider and passenger (rider seat is going to eventually need a new skin, it cost 60% of original price, $399, from Corbin; the seat has a couple small tears and the stitching is wearing; Corbin wait time is 6 weeks now, but this is not an imperative fix - there's tape on the seat to preserve it as long as possible - see pictures).

The bike is equipped with ABS, however it does not engage and hasn't for the last 5,000k miles - it may be the sensors or the modulator - I don't know, and I haven't test it. I prefer to ride without it.

Any questions feel free to ask - I have most records and some receipts. Clear New Mexico title.

BMW 1000RR and the Honda C70, are they indestructible?

Wed, 20 Apr 2011

I’ve managed 1374 miles on the Michelin Power Pures (mostly on track) and although we’ve had some decent temperatures they still look like new so there’s plenty meat left for another month at least. I’ve been running them at 30psi front and 32psi rear and find they warm up after a few miles but I wouldn’t say the temperature comes any quicker than any of the competition so it has to be four miles before I get brave. I’ve had a few out the seat moments with my BMW but I have got the rear suspension  set pretty hard (8 rebound,8 compression, two turns on pre load) and in slick mode, so 190bhp in first gear at the Knockhill hairpin is always going to be dodgy.
