Hello :) I have 2002 BMW R1150RT for sale. Runs and rides great. Piedmont Red. Electronically controlled winshield is a fantastic option. Factory heated handgrips and driving lights (incorporated into the sides of the headlight (there are 4 lights in the headlight unit). 98,xxx+ miles (and rising, as I am still riding). Tires are decent Michelin Pilot Road 2s, front is better than rear. I would measure tread but there aren't grooves in the middle to measure, and that is where most of the wear takes place. Brand new fuel filter. I have never noticed it use any oil. No leaks or drips, etc (I have noticed the slightest dirtyness around the valve cover bolts, but very minor, just trying to be thorough). Paint is pretty decent; minor stone chips here-and-there as expected with miles. Minor (like zero-mile/hour) scuffs on the engine guards, saddle bags, and mirrors from what appears to be small tip-overs/bumping a garage while parking. I have only ridden the bike for about 1000 miles. I have never owned a mid-sized touring bike such as this, and am not sure it is the right bike for me (though I have owned an airhead and K-RS), so am listing it for sale. I was told by previous owner that it was (major?) serviced about 6,000 miles ago, not sure what that service all entailed. Also newer brake pads and oil/filter change. Some details since the prospective buyer probably wouldn't be able to ride before buying: The ABS has worked great while I have owned it. I read on some forums that it is supposed to make a whining noise while the brakes are applied, which it does. Also, I thought that the rear brake was quite grabby when I first rode it, but have since become totally acclimated to it; I'm not sure if that is normal or not, just mentioning it to be thorough in the description. Also in the interest of being thorough; the rear spring/shock is adjustable, and is adjusted to medium which is fine. The front is not adjustable and I though a little soft, but I am used to sportbikes so attributed that characteristic to the fact that it is a touring bike and designed to be that way. Again, this could be totally normal for this model but I am mentioning it just to be as thorough as possible in the description. PAYMENT is due in full within 7 days of the sale. I will only accept payment in cash or bank issued check. No credit card payments accepted. Check payment is ONLY accepted after the payment has cleared with my bank, which can take up to 10-14 business days to do. Cash, in person, is totally acceptable and instant, if that is what you prefer. A DEPOSIT of $300 is due within 48 hours of the sale. Please only bid if you are serious. I am placing high standards on the bidding requirements, please ask if you do not meet those standards as I may make an exception. DELIVERY/PICKUP is available in person, in St. Paul, Minnesota. Buyer is solely responsible for pickup or delivery arrangements. Must be picked up within 3 weeks of sale. I will meet with a shipping company to ship the bike. I may also deliver or meet within a certain radius of the Twin Cities area, at my discretion, and for a fee...just ask. :) Please ask for any additional information or photos before buying. --------------------------------------------- LEGAL STUFF: Considering that I am selling this bike most likely sight-unseen, I am making no promises in any way. I list it in the faith that I am doing my best to be descriptive, but I am not a mechanic or expert in any way, and should not be trusted as such in regard to this sale. The responsibility of assessing the item is solely that if the buyer. Any mistakes in the listing are unintentional, and I am in no way liable for any misunderstandings. I offer no warranty of any way, shape, manner, or form, of merchantability or otherwise, expressed or implied.

All such research should be done before any bids, offers, or purchases of the item. Once the item has been bid on or bought, the sale is final. I am selling a used motorcycle, I am not a dealer, and as such, warranty is not provided. Thanks for looking, it has been a fun bike for me to ride. :)
