    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I LOVE it ALL!!! After seeing this fine example, I'm going to take the 850 in the same direction. :clap: Think I may even use the pedal idea for some sexy looking forward mounts. Nice piece! :-\\\

Need to shorten the tail section a little more. It looks WAY to bulky. ;)

I would call that a public service..you know how hot it gets out there fishing in the hot sun?? sounds like its a win win for everyone!!!!
 
I wonder if his wife is making him sell this one with the way he describes it:

1999 BMW R1100rt Police Rat Bike - $2200 (Denver - Cap Hill)

Date: 2010-12-01, 8:36PM MST
Reply to: sale-agkvh-2090397146@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]



That's right, I said "Rat Bike". Of course, this might cause some derision from people who value "The Rat Bike" aesthetic. If you're offended, take a deep breath, it will be O.K. You can rest assured that your discernment of the phrase, your valuation of motorcycle art, and your understanding of the universe through words is possibly (and likely) deeper than my own.

The scope and purpose of this depiction is to prevent disappointment and haggling. This bike isn't cosmetically perfect and the price is $2200 FIRM, Cash.

When I say not perfect, here's what I mean:
1)The bike has 119,510 miles. It takes a little gas to get it started, but this could possibly be remedied w/ a new throttle advance (i.e. Choke) cable.
2)It has 119,510 miles. There are small scratches, tiny cracks in plastic, some rust here and there etc. Considering this it's in pretty good shape.
3)Remember when I said your understanding of motorcycle aesthetics is probably better than mine? Well, the mirrors are made for a Jetta and not mounted very well (I like to drink beer when I work on my bike) and the passenger seat was made from an office chair. You probably won't be very impressed with my handy-work, but you should pretend to be, or just ignore these "features" if you're invited to come see my bike.
4)Other issues: The R-hand grip-heater doesn't work; the footrest plate is from an r1150 and has been modified to fit this bike; oh and the horn sounds really cheesy.

Aside from these issues, the bike runs and rides great!

If you're not familiar with this model, this is a great touring bike. Here are some of the highlights:
0 Dual, floating rotor, integrated anti-lock brakes; it will stop really well
0 Bosch fuel injection
0 A powered windshield that you raise and lower while riding
0 A flat (i.e. Boxer) engine for a lower center of gravity
0 Rider information display with fuel gauge, oil temp. and gear indicator
0 A cop alternator, a cop speedometer, and oil cooling fan
0 Paralever (single-sided) rear suspension

The bike has a clean Colorado title.

Legalese: You must have a motorcycle endorsement on your driver's license and cash-in-my-hand is required for test-rides -- if you crash it, that means you bought it! (Won't your significant other love that?!)

Thanks for looking, and have a great day!

Zach

$20,000. Yup. Twenty. Thousand. Dollars. :eek: :confused:

That same amount would get you 15-20 nice running GS's. Ridiculous what some people consider paying for a 'collectible bike'.

We should hope GS's never get to this level of value. Of course if they did we could all just sell ours and buy bandit 12's or BMW's :rolleyes:

yeah the z1 is nice but 7 grand, yet alone 20 grand is stupid. i dont care what service manuals it comes with i aint paying more than a grand for that. 1100e's bike for sale is WAY better than that z1, it's gotta be 100x better in every way compared to that z1
 
Why does it feel like a scam to me though. I guess it's one reason I don't do internet buying like that.
 
look at the pictures, looks like oil spots underneath the bike. 20,000 for a bike that leaks oil? Although I suppose it could be from something else. Hey, whatever the market will bear. If someone wants to pay 20k for it, good on them, but I wouldn't do it. I can think of a lot of other bikes I could buy with that money, especially modern bikes. I could buy a Triumph Speed Triple R and an Aprilia Shiver for that money.
