Vehicle Detail
2000 Bmw R1200C,THIS 2000 BMW R-SERIES R1200C IS A TRUE BLEND OF FUNCTION AND BEAUTY. AND WITH ONLY 4558 TOTAL CRUISERS BUILT IN 2000, THIS IS TRULY A LIMITED PRODUCTION MACHINE THAT COULD APPRECIATE IN VALUE. This beautifully maintained BMW R SERIES-R1200C is almost perfect in both form and function. Check out the suspension on this amazing motorcycle. Doesn't the rear suspension remind you of a top notch motocross dirt bike? And doesn't it look great? The rear suspension specs are Die cast aluminium single sided swinging arm with BMW Motorrad Monolever; central strut, spring pre-load mechanically adjustable. What this means to you is a dialed in controllable ride that you can adjust to your own weight and can cater to your preference for a softer or firmer ride. THIS BMW CRUISER IS SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS THE "James Bond Bike" AS THIS MODEL WAS USED IN THE JAMES BOND THRILLER "Tomorrow Never Dies". EVEN THE FRONT SUSPENSION IS SPECIAL. SURE IT HAS FRONT FORKS LIKE MO! ST MOTORCYCLES, BUT CHECK OUT THE ADDITION. EVER SEE ANYTHING LIKE THAT? TOTALLY COOL. BMW calls the front suspension: "BMW Motorrad Telelever; stanchion diameter 35 mm, central strut". I call it AWESOME. The feeling of control and stability in this 2000 BMW-R-Series confidence inspiring. And it's light in weight in comparison to a full dresser which makes it much easier to handle and maneuver. THIS BMW CRUISER HAS ONLY 9300 ORIGINAL MILES. BMW MOTORCYCLES ARE LEGENDARY FOR LOGGING LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF MILES. THEY ARE VIRTUALLY "BULLETPROOF". THIS BEAUTIFUL MACHINE IS BARELY BROKEN IN. LOOKING FOR A COMFORTABLE SEAT? WITH A PLUSH SEAT AND COMFY SEAT PAN, THIS BMW CRUISER IS EQUALLY AT HOME TAKING QUICK TRIPS IN TOWN OR CRUISING LONGER RIDES ON THE OPEN ROAD. PLUS, THIS BIKE COMES WITH THE INFAMOUS BMW FLIP-UP BACKREST: FLIP IT DOWN = PASSENGER SEAT. FLIP IT UP: SUPER COMFY BACKREST FOR THE RIDER. THERE ARE FASTER BIKES. THERE ARE BIGGER BIKES. THERE ARE LOUDER BIKES. BUT I TRULY DOUBT THERE ARE BETTER BIKES. New battery freshly installed.New BMW Powerlet outlet freshly installed.New trickle charger quick-connect freshly installed.New 12v cigarette lighter outlet freshly installed. THERE ARE NUMEROUS SAFETY FEATURES. HOW ABOUT A FLASHING REAR BRAKE LIGHT THAT WILL DEFINIT! ELY GET THE ATTENTION OF THE DRIVER BEHIND YOU. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE MANDATORY EQUIPMENT ON ALL STREET MOTORCYCLES. AND WHEN YOU USE YOUR BRAKES..YOU WILL LOVE THEM. THIS BIKE HAS ABS BRAKES....AN AMAZING ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM THAT WILL HELP KEEP YOU OUT OF TROUBLE. AND LET'S TALK ABOUT FUEL EFFICIENCY. THIS BIKE IS FUEL INJECTED. NO CARBORATORS. THIS IS A MOTORCYCLE CARB FREE DIET....LOL. AND SHE SIPS FUEL RATHER THAN DRINKS. SHE WILL AVERAGE ABOUT 50 MPG AT HIGHWAY CRUISING SPEEDS. A note about the pics: There is literally not a scratch on this bike (except for the aging of the seat and the infamous wheel chrome) so if you see anything other than perfect paint, body, and metal in the photos, it is only a funny shadow or reflection - not the bike.
