BMW K-Series description
|
Up for auction is a 1999 BMW K1200 LT. This Motorcycle has
just over 54,000 miles and still running strong. The condition would best
described as ”Fair” and well used. This bike has several bumps, scrapes, scratches,
and rubs throughout, but it runs absolutely terrific. Cons: Windscreen is sun stained and weathered. You can
barely see through it. I’d recommend a replacement. Primary seat padding is bad, repair is recommended. When set on its side stand for long periods of time, the
bike will slightly smoke upon start-up. It only lasts a couple minutes, and only on cold starts.
(This issue is common with this model with low or high mileage, we usually set the bike on its center stand
to avoid this altogether). The shift indicator showing the gear selected does not work
properly. No issues mechanically, it shifts smooth on all gears; you just need
to remember to count them in your head when riding. Pros: Very well maintained. Autocomm with FRS. Many miles traveled, and still very trusted (just completed
500 mile trip last month). Super comfortable with many accessories, including but not limited to, heated hand grips, cruise control, and a reverse function. Clean and clear NV title. Please bid with confidence as everything has been disclosed, if you have any additional questions, please ask. Any questions asked by the public will be displayed on the auction page for all others to read. Lastly, I welcome personal viewings or 3rd party mechanical review prior to auction close, but it must be done at location of bike. |

IIHS Asks NHTSA to Make ABS Brakes Mandatory for All Street-legal Motorcycles in US
Fri, 07 Jun 2013The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and the Highway Loss Data Institute have submitted a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration petitioning in favor of making anti-lock brakes mandatory for all new on-highway motorcycles. The letter, addressed to David Strickland, NHTSA administrator, included a recent IIHS study on the effects of ABS on motorcycle fatal crash rates. The report found ABS technology reduces the rate of fatal crashes by 31%, while collision claim rates were 20% lower with ABS-equipped motorcycles.

Cal looking good
Sun, 20 Mar 2011Make no mistake Cal Crutchlow is doing an amazing job during his short career in Moto GP. He is asking not to be compared to Ben Spies but when you consider Spies had three Moto GP races under his belt at the same point in his career, Cal's 8th position in Qatar qualifying then 11th in the race is a pretty solid start. He ended 2010 as one of the best world's best superbike riders but the 800cc Moto GP machines require different riding skills. Watching trackside it is easy to see the the riders have to brake later backshift quicker before getting back on the throttle on the corner entry. With the help of advanced electronics this loads the front tyre earlier giving the potential for greater momentum that continues past the apex to the corner exit and beyond.
