FS: 2001 BMW R1150GS

[Mrs. DantesDame]

The bike is for sale again!

*******************

Well, with the upcoming move, as well as the difficulty of selling a motorcycle in January, I feel that it is better to just put my bike up on the block now    



Price... I need to do some research. Right now my gut tells me that $5,000 is a start and I can work from there.
88,587 Mileage due to change, as I still ride the bike periodically

Located in northern New Jersey

-motor runs great
-clutch and transmission recently rebuilt
-solid ride
-8 gallon adventure tank (dinged and dented, but sound)
-Bitubo shock and springs
-PIAA lights
-Zega rack, panniers, liners (bags are nicely stickered, so you can look cool in the Starbucks parking lot)
-rear brake cover
-solo seat w/passenger seat
-Hepco Becker engine guards
-Hepco Becker leather topcase (this thing is awesome)
-mud guards

Did I miss something? Where are you moving to?

Out of Joisey?

Very much "out of Joisey"

Switzerland, in fact

[R Doug]

The first time I met you was after you did a cross country trip on the bike. Seeing it listed as up for sell is sad.

WOW, no half measure.

Alps for breakfast every day!  

Tres' cool!


I will be looking forward to ride reports to rival Team Orson!

   That's one helluva bar to beat!

[Justin]

You're such a rebel  

And I think you should charge more for the street cred on this one.

I followed that bike up the Lost Coast at a WCRM.

We need a STN museum filled with storied mounts such as your GSA, Opus's Viffer, one of Dan's Guzzis, etc.

Very nice and well broken in ride! If I did not just buy a deck, sidewalks and irrigation I would send canuck bucks your way!  

[Mrs. DantesDame]

 

The more I think about it, the more I don't care if this bike sells. It really is fun to ride, and it'd be nice to arrive in Switzerland with a bike 'ready to go'.

Even if it is the middle of February  

[Carbonero]

Having gotten... ahem... intimate with the innards of this bike, I can vouch for just how solid this machine is. Mechanically speaking, it's ready to go another 85,000 miles.

Have you looked at what they'd want for shipping to Switzerland?  Just curious what the cost is.

Is that one of those fine Rick Mayer saddles on there?

That's not really the issue. The fact of the matter is that I'd like an excuse to buy a new bike and secondly, the idea of filling the 8 gallon tank with European prices is rather daunting

[loadedmind]

So when's the move?

[black hills]

 the idea of filling the 8 gallon tank with European prices is rather daunting  

umm  don't you use the same amount of fuel no matter how many time you have to stop and fill up

[Mrs. DantesDame]

umm  don't you use the same amount of fuel no matter how many time you have to stop and fill up

   Of course!

But mentally it is easier to make two $75 fill ups than standing there one time, watching the pump roll over $150. I may be blonde, but I'm not stupid!
