1995 BMW 1100GS, Black - 77K miles - Clean MA title in my name (no bank liens, etc) - NO ABS, heated grips and seat, Acerbis hand guards, RID computer, Ohlins shocks - just rebuilt, BMW crash bars, HID lights, PIAA fog/driving lights, stainless Spiegler brake lines, etc. see maintenance history below for more upgrades. - $6,000 spent over 3 years on upgrades and maintenance. That number does not include my time - just parts and supplies. Top case not included. I have a very similar 52L Givi top case if interested. Are you looking for one of the best GS models ever made, but are worried about getting a bike with an unknown service history and none of the typical 1100 problems addressed? Well, don't worry about that, because I've spent the last three years doing it for you. I've got the extremely anal and detailed service history during my ownership available (see below) to ensure that this bike will be going strong through 150K and beyond. I use this GS daily as a commuter and touring bike and it has never once left me stranded, anywhere. I was attracted to this particular bike because it was used, maintained well, and loved. It was not just a hangar queen with low miles. It has some scratches and marks here and there - what you'd expect for a GS! Mechanically, it's in excellent condition and probably better than most any 1100GS out there for sale now. I could strip the bike of the upgrades and sell it for less, but I can't bring myself to do that after all the time and effort I put into this bike. I hope that someone will continue to take care of it after me. Here's some of the things you'll see in the service history that have the most immediate impact and make the bike feel new again: - New throttle and clutch cables - no sticking, smooth response throughout - Transmission rebuilt completely by one of the best mechanics for this type - Anton Largiarder in West Virginia. Less than 5k miles since rebuild. Splines lubed with the appropriate moly grease upon reassembly : ) clutch assembly replaced at same time. - HID lights are BRIGHT and wired to high beam, pretty much turn night into day. In addition, switchable PIAA fogs provide extra lighting at all times to supplement the front headlight. - Michelin Anakee 3 tires in great shape - the rear is almost new. Front <3k miles. - Brand new starter and battery installed a few weeks ago. Plenty of cranking power and quicker starts. - Seat is HEATED and has 1/2" more padding than original, - it's more comfortable. - Two horns (one electric FIAM, and one Stebel compressor-driven air horn) will wake up the most cell-focused drivers. - Swingarm bearings are new - you don't realize the importance of these until you drive old ones, then new ones. - TBs cleaned and balanced - the response is crisp, quick, and smooth. - Ohlins shocks, freshly rebuilt front and rear are available for an extra $1000. These do not come with the bike. The stock shocks will come with the bike. - BMW crash bars that were NOS before I installed them. You can't get these any more from BMW. - AX-FIED fuel controller for surge free riding.
