BMW R-Series description

2009 R1200GS ADVENTURE, RED- CLEAN AS A WHISTLE, MECHANICALLY SOUND, OVERALL SUPERB CONDITION. STANDARD ABS & SUSPENSION.

What you need to know:
Comes with a Low Sargent Seat (I am 5'9" and it is very comfortable), Anti-vibration Rox Risers, Aftermarket Hurric Exhaust, Ram mount and GPS mount, Fog Lights, Fobo Tire Pressure senors and the Original BMW pannier system. The engine is stellar- you could take off for Patagonia tomorrow if you so desired. Last oil change/service at 46,800 miles. Tires still have good deal of tread left. Chrome and aluminum are in excellent shape. 2 Sets of Keys!!

Cosmetically, the bike is in great shape with the exception of some scuff marks/scratches on the panniers and rear brake line protector (shown in pics). The support wire connecting to the lid in the right pannier is a little bent but does its job fine. There is some cloudiness/fading of the black- colored sides of gas tank above the seat (hard to notice upon a glance).

The gas tank will need a new fuel strip- currently the fuel gauge only reads until half a tank and gets stuck there. The left-hand heated grip will need to have wiring re-soddered or replaced- it only heats partially (right heated grip is fine).

Those are the only flaws- I prefer to be detailed about them so that there are no surprises for you. Clean South Carolina Title in hand. There were 2 owners before me in NY and AL- never a mechanical issue/rebuild- background check the VIN for yourself.

At some point in my life I will own one of these again; however my new baby comes first! Hard to let this one go...buyer must agree to carry on the adventure spirit.

It be might be manufacturers dominating a certain segment of the market or even one country seemingly having a never ending supply of successful racers and the same goes for tyres. Back in the eighties and early nineties if you wanted racing success in the Supersport class Avon tyres would be your most likely weapon of choice.
