This motorcycle appears as in BMW Factory Configuration. Virtually No Aftermarket accessories not withstanding the RCS Steering Damper replacing the BMW Damper and new NGK Ignition Wires and Caps. The Rear View Mirrors, Clutch and Front Brake Levers, Foot Peg Ends, Muffler, etc. show zero evidence that the previous owner ever dropped this motorcycle. All the various fluids are fresh. It’s completely “fluid tight” and does not leak a drop of anything. Every feature functions at 100%, No outstanding issues and all small items such as light bulb indicators, heated grips, cruise control, clock, etc 100% functional. Everything Works, Always Garaged, Regular Use of BMW Fuel Treatment. There are 2 Minor Flaws in the red paint on the fairing, one high/forward on the left side and one middle/center on the right side. They do not stand out and you must get right up close and know where to look to see them. There are pictures of both flaws posted here, they were difficult to capture in a photograph. If there is a particular specific item that you wish to see additional photographs available upon request.

The K1200RS is the last of BMW’s longitudinal “flying brick” fours, the engine layout that ran from the K100 all the way through this bike before BMW switched to a transverse setup in 2005. Never had the reputation of a proper sportbike. Had the reputation of a bike that could eat a thousand miles before lunch and still enjoy the twisties on the way home.
What stands out here is the level of detail in the write-up. Factory-correct shock rebuild instead of an aftermarket swap. A reproduction seat done through a specialist instead of just slapped with a cover. Someone clearly enjoyed maintaining this thing as much as riding it, which isn’t the norm for a bike with 53,000 miles on it.
As you can imagine, based on the level of detail in the seller’s description, the Cycle Trader ad has many more photos.
Anyone up for a tour?
Good luck to the buyer and seller!
