I been eyeballing it.  I still kick myself in the ass for not buying deadduck's.  Yours is an even better buy, but I just registered for EMT school yesterday.  Damn responsibilities. That color would add a Boba Fett to the stable with the Stormtrooper and Lord Vader.

You'd probably have more luck selling this if you included some pictures.

Recently installed a touring clear windshield on the brick.  If anyone wants a great bike, it is back on the market - $1,850.00 garaged in Nashville, Tn.  Thanks

Hello 85K100RTTN -
Why don't you describe the bike and include maintenance history such as clutch replacements, spline lubes, any new parts, tires and condition, any weep hole drips, add-ons,  ABS brakes?, etc.
How long have you owned it and how many owners it has had.
Whatever you can think of that might be of interest to a potential buyer.

Thanks for the suggestion.  The bike has 22,000 miles.  It was purchased new from Rees Motors in Shelbyville, Tn who was the BMW dealer at the time.  The bike was stored for over 12 years when  I purchased the bike almost two years ago.  I have ridden the bike close to 2,000 miles.  It required a new fuel pump, filter, basket, cleaning fuel injectors, spark plugs, and new battery to get it running.  At the same time I installed new Contiental GO tires, air filter, oil filter, and fresh oil.  The gearbox and final drive also were serviced including pulling the driveshaft and lubing the splines which showed no wear.  New rear brake pads were installed along with fresh brake fluid.  Two new horns also installed.  Tach, speedometer, fuel lights, headlights, turn signals all work.  The gear shift indicator is legible but fuzzy.  The brake monitoring light comes on at times but the rear brake light is working.  This bike runs very smooth, it will not numb your throttle hand.  Clean TN title in my name.  Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion. . .
The opening post of this thread reads that the bike is no longer for sale and so does a post in the middle of the thread. The post before this one here suggests that it is still for sale.

If it has still been for sale in the elapsed twenty minutes or so, maybe some editing should be done in those other two posts by the OP. If it's been sold, congratulations.

I modified the original post to state that the bike is for sale today.  This is a very solid bike priced way below what it should be!  Will be interesting to see if someone takes me up on a great deal.  Thanks

Why are you selling it?
Does it leak or "weep" any fluids?

As they say - thinning the herd. And insurance plus tags are due soon.  The bike has no oil leaks or coolant leaks.  Good running K bike, will still cruise well at higher speeds.  Back to the game!

It's much more humane selling it rather than shooting it. I commend you. It's a good looking rig from here. :2thumbup:
