BMW K-Series description

For sale is a 1987 BMW K75 that I've owned now for 6 months with 62000 miles on the odometer. I'm just the third owner of this bike. It got most of its miles from its first owner, who took the bike on a trip to the tip of South America. I've ran into a cash shortage and I can no longer take care of the bike, I have also other projects going on, hence the reason for selling. 

In the last few months I have added a few new components to the bike in order to replace some old ones. It's got a new fuel pump (the last one kicked it), new battery, new starter relay, new back shock absorber, new back tire. This bike has been regularly maintained with a new oil and oil filter change just a few 100 miles ago. The last brake fluid, brake pads and coolant liquid change was performed about 9000 miles ago, which gives about another year or two before changing.

There are two things that need to be address on the bike. It's got a pesky electrical problem that I have not been able to figure out. The clutch will need to be replaced soon. The control panel will at times come in and out, with both the odometer and speedometer working intermittently, a problem that is very common in these bikes. All the other indicators work though.

Please email and I will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. I have a very crazy schedule but we could figure something out if you're interested in coming to see the bike.

Included with the bike its a saddle bag that I've managed to salvage from it's previous owners. The other has a broken latch. 


Shipping: You can either pick up the bike or I'm willing to deliver up to 50 miles from location.

New: Revit off track textile jacket

Mon, 01 Dec 2008

Although the one pictured doesn’t look that worn it’s a recent replacement for the one I’ve been using ever since I passed my test two years ago. The previous incarnation met its fate in Africa at the hands of a knobbly tyre and chain. It has been in constant use this summer.

The Best Bar in America

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

A whiskey-fueled writing assignment takes one man on an epic motorcycle road trip through the bars and taverns across the American West in this feature film.  The film follows a character called Sanders who rides a 1960 BMW R60/2 across Arizona, Utah and Montana. With help of fellow traveler and sage, Northway, and a variety of other colorful characters along the way, Sanders gets learns the way of the road and the zen of the bar.  The Best Bar in America is scheduled for release on DVD and iTunes this Spring. If you fancy watching a bike film before then you can always check out Visordown's Top 10 motorcycle movies of all time.

Naked BMW S1000RR Spotted Testing in Italy – Video

Wed, 29 May 2013

Italian site Motociclismo.it has published a video of what appears to be a naked version of the BMW S1000RR being tested on public roads in Rovereto, Italy. The test model was dressed in camouflage and appears to be close to being ready for production, especially compared to the earlier prototype spotted testing last summer. We expect BMW will officially unveil this S1000RR-based streetfighter at either the Intermot show in Cologne, Germany, or the EICMA show in Milan, Italy, later this fall.
