BMW K-Series description

"Frau Blucher" needs a new home, persistent back trouble has taken long-distance touring off the menu for me.  I've owned her for 6 years and to the best of my knowledge I'm the second owner.

This version of the K1200LT is equipped with about everything that was available at the time, including cruise control, reverse gear, power windshield, heated seats, heated grips, 4 speaker stereo with CD changer, CB Radio, Navigation, security system, etc. The only modifications I've made are a Mayer seat (rider's portion only) and a K&N air filter.  Maintenance has been performed religiously using synthetic lubricants, the battery is about 2 years old, (maintenance-free type) tires are Avon Storm Radials with good tread remaining.  The coolant, brake & clutch fluid, and spark plugs (Iridium type) have also been changed.  Once you remove the 431 screws and strip the bodywork this bike is surprisingly easy to work on.

This bike is in good to excellent condition, just a couple of minor cosmetic flaws.  The chrome trim pieces on both saddlebags are scraped, caused by driveway mishaps - I've never dropped the bike while moving.  One of the fairing "winglets" has some spots on it.  That's about it.  The paint is nearly flawless, the upholstery has no tears or noticeable wear.  No mechanical or electrical issues, everything works as it should.  DISCLAIMER - I've never turned on the CB Radio or the Navigation System because I simply don't care about those gizmos, and the NAV system is probably outdated/obsolete at this point.  I can verify that the electric windshield, cruise control, heated seats & grips, stereo and CD player/changer and the reverse gear all work just fine.  The bike has always been garaged in a dry climate - no rust, no sun fading.

I'll be honest - this is a heavy motorcycle and can be a double handful at low speeds, although the reverse gear does make it easier to maneuver in difficult parking spots. The girl ain't much fun around town, but once you hit the open road the magic carpet ride begins. Comfortable, smooth, good power, excellent weather protection, terrific fuel economy (close to 50 mpg in my hands, your mileage may vary) and a range of about 300 miles.  It also handles amazingly well on a mountain road, sort of like a dancing elephant, but a graceful one.  So what's not to like?

I live in Western Nebraska, approximately 2 1/2 hrs from Denver or 1 1/2 hrs from Cheyenne, Wyoming.  If you're a long way from here and wish to ride your prize home I'll be glad to meet you at the Denver airport.  No extra charge.  One last thing - I do ride the bike occasionally just to keep things loose and lubricated, so the odometer reading may change a little.

BMW Begins Motorcycle Production in Thailand

Thu, 28 Nov 2013

BMW has opened a new motorcycle assembly line at the company’s factory in Thailand. The facility will initially only produce F800R roadsters from complete knock-down kits for the Thai market, though BMW plans to eventually make the facility a production hub for other Asian markets. The Thai facility is BMW’s first wholly-owned motorcycle assembly plant outside of Germany, though the company does share facilities in Manaus, Brazil with local manufacturer DAFRA Motos.
