New toy: 2005 BMW K1200S

[SilverTurbo]

Yep.

Got another bike... Hehe

Traded a BMW K1200LT (luxury touring) to get back on a sport bike again!!!

20k miles. Motor in excellent condition, valves all good, slipper clutch, ackrapovic carbon fiber exhaust, k&n filters, and dyno-jet tuned. 167hp stock, estimating 190ish with mods!!!

Ran a 10.6 @ 137mph. (Easy roll on)

Plus it get 38mpg. Not bad for a 1200cc sport bike

Only mods it needs are some Ohlins front and rear shocks and spring!!! ($2200!!!!!)

Looks sharp.

I had a cbr 600 f4i for a little bit.

Had a couple mods. Fast as ****.
It was fun but I could not ride it long before I was hurting.


Now I have a 91 883 that I really enjoy riding. Old lady has a 98 1100 shadow.

Nice. I can't wait to get my RC51 back out here in a few months.

That is the great thing about living I Texas. There is no such thing as 'winter storage', the lows are usually around 30-40 and highs in the 50-60's. All you need is a simple wind breaker and riding in the morning does not bother me.

And the great thing about this bike vs a true sport bike.... Comfort, comfort. I did 400 miles in 8 hours last weekend. Could still walk.... Plan on doing an iron butt ride in March 1000 miles in under 24 hrs.

A buddy of mine had an RC51 when I lived in Dayton, that thing was BAD!!

Great looking bike, I always loved BMWs on two wheels.
