BMW R-Series description

This is your chance to own the world famous, award winning "Stealth Beemer" Featured in the BMW MOA magazine 8/'94. 
I've owned it since 1985 and hate to see it go. But I just don't ride anymore and it deserves to be on the road gathering bugs and miles. Not tucked in the corner of the garage covered in dust and shame. 42,600 miles, Pichler full fairing, K-bags, R-90S bars, R-100RS rear shocks, Frank's forks, Russell "daylong" seat (custom reupholstered), Reynolds adjustable backrest, Mustang tank cover with pockets, handmade tank bag and mount, clearcoated wheels, "deer hunter" projector driving lights, extra brake light, aftermarket VDO clock and volt meter, also has an accessory plug, and the whole bike is outlined in Black reflective tape. It has been sitting in the corner of my garage for 6 years and has some surface rust on the forks and handlebars. But the tires (Metzler laser front and Continental rear) still hold air and are not dry rotted. (Tubeless tires with inner tubes). It starts, runs, drives, and stops. Some scratches and dents, as I used it for touring, not a concourse garage queen. It fell over in the driveway 6 years ago and cracked the windshield of the fairing (see picture) but the cylinder guards prevented any other damage. Comes with some spare parts including another set of mirrors and extra spare reflective tape. Also for sale, but not included, is my whole set of riding gear, that could go with it for the right additional price. KBB says the bike is worth $3,200 stock. Reserve set at $3001.
Located in Copley, Ohio. 
Local pick up or delivery negotiable.

Tue, 13 Nov 2012

BMW announced it will introduce an all-new Boxer to celebrate its 90th year of motorcycle production, but you didn’t think the German manufacturer would stop there without a couple of other special edition models, did you? To mark the anniversary, BMW revealed special edition “90 Jahre BMW Motorrad” versions of its R1200GS adventure bike, R1200R roadster and R1200RT tourer in Milan at the 2012 EICMA Show. All three models come in a Sapphire Black Metallic color with matte black engines, gold anodized suspension and brakes, and asphalt gray metallic swingarms, trailing arms and rear frames, and granite gray metallic cylinder head covers, and a nickel-plated polished brass plate on the upper fork.
