szurszewski Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 (edited) BMW 1981 R100RT - $1750 (lake grove) I have had this bike for almost 16 years. It runs good and for the most part I would call it reliable. For questions give me a call at 503-444-9311 - Bill. https://portland.craigslist.org/clc/mcy/6135078842.html Edit: If we were still in Portland it would be hard to not pick that up Edited May 18, 2017 by szurszewski Link to comment
FlyingFinn Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Edit: If we were still in Portland it would be hard to not pick that up I'd just have to replace that "sport screen" with something bigger that gives bit more protection... Link to comment
roadscholar Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I had an R100RT with a screen smaller than that, no bike since including 1200, 1500, and 1800 'Wings provided as big a pocket of still air. No other Beemer has even come close. Link to comment
John in VA Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 My R80RT had the best protection of the 5 RTs I've owned. The adjustable fairing vent ports were ingenious and are missed. Link to comment

lkraus Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 I wonder, do you get all three scooters for that $1000? I've learned through another forum that there are scammers nationwide posting fictitious bikes at the uniformly low price of $1K. That Silver Wing is a $1700 trade-in, $2600 retail, around here. Collecting email addresses or some such nonsense. I don't get it. Link to comment
roadscholar Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Wouldn't have posted if I thought it was a scam, I'm on CL enough to be able to decipher what is and isn't in most cases. Just thought it was funny, besides scammers aren't witty enough to write that ad : ) And they almost never leave a name and number, or post more than one pic, because they're lazy bums. The list goes on.. Betting it's just a kid posting a thrashed scooter and having a little fun with it. Link to comment

Bill_Walker Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Well, here's a search I'll probably regret. Here's the R1150RT I traded in on my '15 R1200RT. They're asking, um, rather more than I got in trade, but that's not unexpected. I see they've taken advantage of the service records I included, but "Dealer serviced from new with all receipts" is a lie, although there are records for all the services I did myself. I might question "exceptionally clean", too. And I wonder what happened to the top box. https://orangecounty.craigslist.org/mcy/6164031815.html Link to comment

That's a great statement - casual with the truth. Thanks! I was going to ask how you knew it was yours (didn't doubt it - just curious what made you sure), but I can see the stickers and the partial plate so I guess it's pretty obvious. Instead I'll say I'm surprised they didn't mention the rare BMWRT.com sticker on there Is that being sold at Parts Haus? I assume you didn't trade it there so maybe the dealer made a little money wholesaling and Mr. Buck is trying to make a little as well... Link to comment

Also from the detailed service history of clutch and paralever bearing replacement, which exactly matches my bike. And the GS mirrors, the GPS mount on the Gadget Guy bar, the PIAA lights, the BMS saddle, the headlight guard, the mileage. Plus location and timing. Instead I'll say I'm surprised they didn't mention the rare BMWRT.com sticker on there Is that being sold at Parts Haus? I assume you didn't trade it there so maybe the dealer made a little money wholesaling and Mr. Buck is trying to make a little as well... No doubt the sticker is why the price is so much higher than my trade-in value! I don't know where it's being sold. I traded it in to Long Beach BMW Motorcycles, and they told me they didn't retail bikes that old, but they had a local guy they can usually sell them to.

I've got the Deltran Battery Tender-labeled version, which has a sticker on it that says "programmed for gel batteries.", but there's no model number or serial number sticker. My receipt from Aerostich for it says "Type #4908", but that looks like it's also Aerostich's catalog number. It's on my list of leftover 1150RT stuff to sell after I've got my 1200RT all set up.

I'm a 2-3 bike guy...I'm drooling right now, I really am! Unfortunately, I can't do it right now. Well I could, but I like my marriage too much. Man, do I ever LOVE motorcycles! Link to comment
