BMW Other description

n street at gladiola drive This 1996 BMW R1100RT is a 1 owner, low mile motorcycle that is in unbelievable condition with only 36,806 mis. I rode the bike and it was almost the same as the 1 I test drove in the same year as this was sold. It has no mechanical rattles, no drive train lash, is so quite when it is idling you have to check the tach to make sure it is still turning over. Cosmetically the bike is a knockout. There are no signs of being bumped or dropped in it's road life. Tires look to be at least 80%. Riding it took me back to when bikes were much simpler but still had features like electrically heated handlebar grips and ANTI LOCK BRAKES brakes. On the R1100, you sit more inside of it then the later R1200 which you sit on top of. It is a very different experience and speaks to a different design philosophy almost twenty years back. What a great motorcycle.The selling price is $4,800. See at Automania, 895 SE Gladiola Drive, Grants Pass, OR 97526. http://www.automaniagp.com Oregon Dealer DA1287.

Thumbs up for a chilly N.E.C.

Wed, 08 Dec 2010

Apart from the freaky weather I have to say last week’s Carole Nash Motorcycle Live N.E.C. show was the best Birmingham event I've attended in the ten years. I really appreciate the fact that manufacturers chose to ignore the recession giving us great stands to cater for every enthusiast young and old.  Aprilia made a welcome return and I don’t know anyone that didn’t enjoy admiring the WSB RSV4, surely the the most gorgeous bike on the planet? The Honda stand rarely disappoints and this year was no exception with banking bikes providing fun for all the family.
