This is a 2009 BMW R1200RT Touring bike. Black with silver accents. It is in EXCELLENT condition. Garaged. I bought it brand new last summer from our local HD/BMW dealer and have not been able to really ride it. Knee and shoulder surgeries have taken their toll and out of necessity, I must sell this bike. Otherwise it'll sit in my garage and it's too great of a bike for that! It is equipped with an electronic movable windshield, heated seats and grips, and is built to house a stereo system. It has an on-board computer and gets close to 50 mpg. You can easily get 300 miles to a single tank of gas. It has a TOTAL of 1116 miles on it and there is a 3 year/36,000 mile warranty in effect with 2 years and 34,900 miles left on it. Comes with side "saddle bags" -- these are hard cases that can be fully removed from the bike whenever necessary. Description follows: Endless riding pleasure. The R 1200 RT. As far as 2-cylinder fans are concerned, first-class touring has a memorable abbreviation - and it's been around for 30 years: RT. For long-haul travellers there can hardly be any other term which has always stood for perfectly conceived motorcycling concept from start to finish: excellent wind and weather protection, optimum ergonomics, highly convenient operation combined with a top-class chassis fitted with the unique optional extras ASC and ESA II*. In the touring segment, these features probably define the ultimate benchmark of innovation. Even though the R 1200 RT cuts a superb figure everywhere with its dynamic design, everything about it sends out the message: built to cover thousands of miles, preferably in one go. There is a fascinating mixture of distinctive engine and big bike dynamics. The characteristic "boxer" supremacy has been further enhanced in the current version: the engine's crowning glory is now the radial DOHC** valve operating system from the HP2 Sport, though here designed for greater torque and without any loss of running smoothness: maximum torque 120 Nm, at 6000 rpm, rated output still at 81 kW (110 bhp). This means a tangible increase in thrust from the lower engine speed range through to above the medium range. The new valve control in the exhaust system ensures a discreet but more dynamic sound. And in terms of comfort, the bike boasts a new audio system available as an optional extra, with the innovative operating concept Multi-Controller carrying out virtually all commands from a single unit. *ESA II = Electronic Suspension Adjustment. Electronic spring mount and spring rate adjustment ** DOHC = Double Overhead Camshaft, two overhead camshafts per cylinder On Jul-08-11 at 21:44:07 PDT, seller added the following information: I need to add that the hard cases have some minor scratches on them. The bike was gently laid down when my knee buckled. On Jul-12-11 at 18:55:01 PDT, seller added the following information: The hard cases have been repaired, so they are as good as new! There is no damage to the bike at all and I do have paperwork from the dealer regarding all warranty information. It is fully transferrable.
