Service
24,000 major service done at Mike's Motorcycles (he owns a K1200r) at 25,500. So, at current mileage, another 15,000 miles before a big service.
Fuel pump recall completed this summer.
Rear wheel flange recall completed this summer.
I'm going to upgrade the low-beam to a better LED, so, riding with high-beams at the moment.

Description
If you don't know this bike, it's an incredibly versatile sport-touring motorcycle. I ride the mountains every weekend and have to say that I've never been passed by another biker. . .I suppose there was that one time, two Ducatis, a 748 and a 999 riding together. And, that holds true when I'm riding two-up with my daughter. The suspension on this thing is phenomenal, it holds an incredibly solid line in deep turns.

As to the touring, early in the summer I rode to San Diego from Denver. Left on a Friday late afternoon and returned on a Monday evening....And, I'm old and 6'5". It's a sportier and faster version of an FJR1300, Triumph Trophy, and Kawasaki Concours.

Also, note that the 2007s don't have the second gear gearbox issues that the 2006s have.

I live near Denver...this is a great place to fly and then ride back home. I'm happy to pick you up at the airport and get you to the bike.

Gold Rush

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Spotted at this year's Motorcycle Live. The 'net is awash with gold-wrapped and horrendously painted supercars, often sporting Middle-Eastern numberplates but this S1000RR isn't an Arab creation. Nope, it's a one-off paintjob by BMW for the 2012 Olympics, where BMW supplied cars and bikes to ferry around VIPs.

European Parliament Makes ABS Mandatory, Tighten Emissions Standards by 2016

Wed, 21 Nov 2012

The European Parliament voted overwhelmingly in favor of new rules that would increase emission standards and make anti-lock braking systems mandatory for all new large motorcycles, scooters and trikes and quads by 2016. The new regulations, which would still need approval from European Union member states, may only directly affect Europe, but they will have a wide-reaching affect on manufacturers’ product development for other markets. BMW, for example, has already made ABS standard for all its motorcycles for 2013.
