2006 BMW K-Series

WB10594016ZN55850

For your consideration is this BMW K1200R motorcycle in PERFECT CONDITION with 5276 easy, adult-driven miles. VIN is WB10594016ZN55850. The bike rides perfectly and lives in my garage hooked to a battery tender. It has never been driven hard or in any sort of track event or competition and the engine is basically not even broken in yet. It’s never been dropped or been involved in any kind of collision or accident. It has never been driven in inclement weather including rain or snow. It has BMW factory ABS, ESA-Electronic Suspension Adjustment (this allows you to set the bike's spring and damper settings by with a button on the handgrip. You can select between SPORT, COMFORT and NORMAL modes, with passengers/luggage, without either, or any combination while riding). The bike has the factory heated grips and frame mounted windshield. It also comes with the factory anti-theft/immobilization system and has clear Euro-style turn signal lenses. This bike is fast and very smooth. I only ride it for an occasional 10 mile work commute and simply don't have the time to ride the bike for pleasure anymore. I need to make room in my garage. Front tire has plenty of life left. Rear tire has about 5-10% life remaining. The ONLY flaw I can find is a tiny rock chip on the right-side of the tank close to the handlebar. It’s about 2mm in diameter and is barely noticeable. All the original manuals are included. I will include the factory specified BMW battery tender I purchased (~$200 value) with the bike. During the winter, this system only needs to be plugged into the bike’s accessory socket and will maintain the correct battery maintenance schedule during the non-riding season. As a bonus, I will include the custom, lightweight cover I use for it. I have an issue of a magazine that featured the K1200R in its cover story and it will come in a protective acetate sleeve. It’s a very interesting read.

I've been on eBay since 2001 and have 100% perfect feedback. I don't play games. I will assist in your efforts to have your shipper of choice pick up the bike by being available to release the bike (I recommend Allied Van Lines' agent "Federal Motorcycle Transport"). I require $500 deposit within 24 hours of the end of the auction to hold the bike and the balance by certified check within 72 hours from the end of the auction. I have the title in hand so there will be no wait time to receive it from a bank. I will accept PayPal for full payment but the buyer will need to pay the additional PayPal fees if this method of payment is chosen. PayPal funds must also clear before I will release the bike to a shipper as well. I will NOT accept cash. Some additional technical details about the bike from BMW Motorrad for the interested: Offering significantly improved wind protection particularly advantageous at high speeds, the new BMW K1200R is even more suitable for covering long distances at high speeds. It is indeed the ideal motorcycle not only for dedicated riding pleasure on the race track, but also for all-out enjoyment on country roads and motorways, offering the rider the option to adopt a more upright seating position than on the even more sporting and dynamic K1200S. With maximum output of 120 kW (163 hp), curb weight of just 531 lb, and its innovative Duolever and Paralever suspension, the new model offers the highest standard of riding dynamics and performance at all times and under all conditions. The new BMW K1200R addresses the ambitious sports rider with a penchant for progressive, “naked-bike” technology and a wide range of motorcycling options on a truly versatile machine. The new K1200R ensures optimum comfort and a truly outstanding riding experience particularly on long distances. The technical highlights of the new K1200R at a glance: High-performance four-cylinder inline power unit tilted 55° to the front, maximum output 120 kW (163 hp), 127 Nm (94 lb-ft). Fulfillment of the strictest environmental standards thanks to Digital Motor Electronics and three-way catalytic converter. High-performance aluminum suspension with Duolever wheel mount at the front and EVO-Paralever wheel mount at the rear. Unladen weight of only 241 kg or 531 lb in road trim, perfect balance ensured by a low centre of gravity, supreme handling qualities. Relaxed seating position for an active riding experience. Electronic immobilizer featured as standard. On-board network with CAN-bus technology. Electronically adjustable ESA suspension available as an option. Latest-generation Integral ABS (semi-integral version) available as an option. Tire pressure control (TPC) as an option. Wide range of optional extras and sports accessories. New: BMW Motorrad High Performance Parts for sporting customization Technical Features and Design The high-performance power unit develops maximum output of 120 kW (163 hp) at 10,250 rpm, with peak torque of 127 Nm (94 lb-ft) at 8,250 rpm. These figures alone clearly underline the supreme acceleration and drive power of the K1200R Sport standing out as a sporting multi-talent in every respect. Dry sump lubrication and the position of the compact power unit with its cylinder bank tilted 55° to the front ensure a very low centre of gravity offering, first, the desired load on the front wheel and, second, sporting, dynamic handling qualities at all times. Six-speed gearbox. The six-speed gearbox on the K-Series is a light and compact integrated transmission unit fully contained within the engine housing. The gearbox itself as well as the gear increments are the same as on the other K-models. Duolever/Paralever wheel suspension. Duolever front suspension combining superior precision and directional accuracy with optimum suspension comfort. The entire structure is very strong and torsionally resistant, naturally being conceived and designed for light smooth handling. And thanks to its smooth response, the front wheel suspension offers a precise feeling for the road surface, taking in and smoothly absorbing even the smallest bumps. Yet another feature of the kinematic Duolever is its anti-dive brake action remaining virtually consistent throughout the motorcycle’s entire spring travel. All told, therefore, the new K1200R offers an ideal combination of everyday riding qualities and sportiness also through its suspension and running gear, once again emphasising the dynamic character of the new machine from BMW Motorrad. Developed by BMW Motorrad for the K-Series, the Paralever is a highly stable lightweight construction efficiently combining the transmission of forces and rear wheel guidance, and connecting the spring strut via a progressive kinematic pivot point. It also offers significant benefits in damper response and progressive action. Further advantages of the Paralever are the reduction of unsprung masses and load change reactions, the increase in ground clearance, and the particularly attractive, filigree look of the rear suspension. Optional ESA and RDC. BMW Motorrad’s Electronic Suspension Adjustment (ESA) allowing the rider to adjust the spring/damper set-up conveniently to his particular requirements simply by pressing a button. EVO brake system and Integral ABS as an option. The new K1200R is fitted as standard with BMW Motorrad’s proven EVO brake system also featured on other models in the K- and R-Series. With brake disc diameter of 320 millimetres/12.60´´ at the front and 265 millimetres/10.43´´ at the rear, this brake system is simply ideal for excellent stopping power also when riding fast and dynamically. And the flexible steel brake lines featured as standard on the EVO brake system not only look good, but also ensure a consistent pressure point at all times. The new generation of BMW Motorrad Integral ABS with semi-integral function introduced in summer 2006 is available as an optional extra. This system controls the front and rear wheel brakes from the handbrake lever, while the footbrake lever acts exclusively on the brake at the rear as a configuration particularly well-suited for the sports-minded motorcycle rider. CAN-bus technology and electronic immobilizer. A standard feature of the current BMW Motorrad K-Series is that the electrical and electronic components communicate with one another via a modern databus network exchanging digital information through one single wire. Introduction of this single-wire system has dramatically streamlined the on-board electrics, significantly reducing the need for cables and connectors as well as the weight of the entire wiring system. A further point is that only this technology is able to provide reliable, comprehensive and rapid troubleshooting and diagnostic functions. Yet a further benefit of CAN-bus technology is that it enables the service technician to read out data and/or re-define parameters. And an electronic immobiliser with direct exchange of data between the ignition key and the motorcycle’s electronic system is also standard on the new K1200R. Design and color concept. White-Aluminium metallic matte is a special metallic paintwork combining a truly “technical” look with supreme clarity. The matte surfaces hardly generate any reflections, thus emphasising the specific lines and contours of the motorcycle through the interaction of light and shade alone. The engine and chassis components finished in black, in turn, create a clear and distinctive contrast giving the overall machine a particularly masculine and straightforward look.
