BMW K-Series description

If you've never seen one or heard of this bike, you should do a search and look it up. THEY DO NOT COME UP FOR SALE VERY OFTEN.  A true collectors bike. Starts easily and runs, drives, shifts and stops well. All of the lights and electrical work as they should and the ABS shows functional. Mileage will adjust slightly as it gets ridden.  It has a couple of flaws which I would be happy to explain via phone.  The blue body work is all original and in very good condition, the silver portions were originally yellow but was professionally done in silver.  This is the main thing that keeps this bike in the 4 digit price range. Brand new battery and fuel pump.  I also have code correct BMW Laguna Blue touch up paint. Tires have over 75% tread.  Fork seals do NOT leak.   

So I know everyone says they have a rare bike...this one actually is. There were only 6,921 ever produced and only 671 brought into the US. This bike is the 3rd bike (by VIN #) ever brought into the states. It is a 1 owner bike that has 15,060 original miles on the odometer and is in very good condition. I have a set of stock silver BMW K1 decals to go with the bike.  As aerodynamic as this bike is, it is definitely NOT a flying brick!

Check your vintage bike price guides and look at the current value and this is for sure one bike that will NOT depreciate. This is the first model of motorcycle to offer ABS and this bike has that option. It also has a very rare option on it, the black engine covers which were made for the Swiss market for sound and heat dampening. They were $850 and I've only ever seen 1 picture with them in it...they are in excellent condition with all tabs and mounting screws intact.

I have researched this bike and can tell you lots regarding it's history, provenance and condition and am willing to answer any questions or need specific pictures. I've also got some extra parts...clear open title. Please use the VIN # if you wish to investigate on your own.

Mon, 27 Feb 2012

Max Biaggi won the opening race to the 2012 World Superbike Championship while defending champion Carlos Checa came back from a high-speed crash in the first race to win the second at Australia’s Phillip Island circuit. Reigning champion Checa of Althea Ducati had a stunning high-side crash while leading on the sixth lap of Race One. The WSBK paddock was already in shock with the death of 17-year-old Oscar McIntyre in the Superstock 600 race the day before but thankfully Checa was not seriously injured.

Kymco to Supply BMW with i3 Electric Car Range Extender and New 400cc Scooter Engine

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The automotive world has been buzzing of late about BMW‘s upcoming i3 electric car having an optional range extending gas-powered motorcycle engine. As our sister site Autoguide.com reports, the i3 will be available with an optional two-cylinder BMW motorcycle engine to power a generator which can recharge the electric motor and extend the vehicle’s range to 250 miles compared to a range of 60-90 miles relying just on the battery. It turns out that two-cylinder motorcycle engine will actually be provided to BMW by Taiwanese manufacturer Kymco.

Go camping with your bike

Thu, 05 Jul 2012

Keep your bike close to you when you go camping with the MOTOTENT from motorcycle adventurers Lone Rider. Priced at £450, here's a round-up of the features from Lone Rider: The MOTOTENT is spacious enough to shelter a dual sport bike as big a BMW R1200 GSA with all its luggage, to have room to work on it, and to be able to stand in the tent. The tunnel-shaped design allows a very quick setup of the tent when needed.
