1995 K 1100 RS cockpit.jpg (38.23 kB . 432x576 - viewed 398 times)Offering for sale my 1995 K 1100 RS (the Pickle). 66,000 miles. Factory owners manuals plus Factory Repair Manual.Palmetto green with black Corbin seat. Laminar Lip, Throttlermesiter, GPS Bar and Garmin Nuvi, Multivario tank bank specific for K 1100 RS (with mounting clips installed) plus BMW Factory Top Box. Complete set of tools. Tires in good shape. Has Progressive Works rear shock. I have stock BMW Heated grips that are not installed but will go with the bike.
All fuel lines changed and quick disconnects installed. All emmission hoses changed this year. Last year all coolant replaced and new rear master cylinder installed.
Driving lights installed but not wired up.
Arthritic right wrist absolutely forces sale. I simply can't ride the Pickle very far without lightening bolts in my wrist. Only remedy is to have surgery to repair area and three months no nothing plus I have crap insurance makes matters even worse. So prolonging surgery and selling the Pickle. Comes with factory bags as well. Just a terrific bike that I've enjoyed many trips I hate to sell but the flip side is worse.
I am offering at a rock bottom price and I am firm on $1995.00.
If you reply to my add include your phone number because I will call you to verify you're not a scammer. I am posting here because you guys know what this bike is, the special Palmetto color (the Pickle). I can tell you if I was capable of holding on to the throttle for long distances I absoluetly would not be afraid to take this bike across country and back. She usually averages close to 55-60 mpg. I am hoping to sell it to someone that will care for the Pickle like I have. I can send pics whatever you need for serios buyers. Thanks Guys Wardie

It's called Stars and Stripes. A Victor Soling 1 Meter RC Racing Sailboat. Fast and competitive on the Regional level never sailed in competitively on a National level.
Paint job alone was $350.00

yes when you go below 70 mph it always gets that mpg. Surprised some of you mentioned 45 mpg? I find that if I'm always in the 75-78 mph range I lose mpg's

Yes it is you must know your boats.

I used to race Marbleheads and 36/600's (a.k.a. "boat of the month club") back in the 90's. Designed and built a bunch of boats, but wasn't a very good at reading the wind on the pond we raced on.
