BMW K-Series description

For sale is a 1987 BMW K75 that I've owned now for 6 months with 62000 miles on the odometer. I'm just the third owner of this bike. It got most of its miles from its first owner, who took the bike on a trip to the tip of South America. I've ran into a cash shortage and I can no longer take care of the bike, I have also other projects going on, hence the reason for selling. 

In the last few months I have added a few new components to the bike in order to replace some old ones. It's got a new fuel pump (the last one kicked it), new battery, new starter relay, new back shock absorber, new back tire. This bike has been regularly maintained with a new oil and oil filter change just a few 100 miles ago. The last brake fluid, brake pads and coolant liquid change was performed about 9000 miles ago, which gives about another year or two before changing.

There are two things that need to be address on the bike. It's got a pesky electrical problem that I have not been able to figure out. The clutch will need to be replaced soon. The control panel will at times come in and out, with both the odometer and speedometer working intermittently, a problem that is very common in these bikes. All the other indicators work though.

Please email and I will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have. I have a very crazy schedule but we could figure something out if you're interested in coming to see the bike.

Included with the bike its a saddle bag that I've managed to salvage from it's previous owners. The other has a broken latch. 


Shipping: You can either pick up the bike or I'm willing to deliver up to 50 miles from location.

James Toseland Announces Retirement from Racing

Fri, 09 Sep 2011

Two-time World Superbike Champion James Toseland announced his immediate retirement from motorcycle racing due to a debilitating injury to his right wrist. Signed with the BMW Motor Italia racing team, Toseland has been limited to just seven of 20 races in this season’s WSBK Championship due to the wrist injury initially suffered during a private test at Spain’s Aragon circuit in March. After undergoing an operation for the injury, Toseland made two attempts at returning to racing, first at the Miller Motorsports Park round in May and again at the Silverstone round in July.
