nice looking bike with classic styling before BMW got strange. I'm a little leery of the early ABS that was trouble prone.
I don't mind the ABS, it breaks well and you can still break hard with it.
I don't want brakes that break well or hard, I want brakes that stop the bike! ;)
This is true. My statement was vague, not the breaking!
Very nice BMW. I got to ride an R1100, first year telelever, for a day to put miles on it as a dealer demo. At the time I had a '90 R100RT, the LeMans IV and a Monza V50. Rode up the Lake Michigan coast and had a wonderful time. ;-T
that's a great bike, the only bike I ever had I regret letting go. Picked it up in Munich in the last year of the Euro delivery program, 1993. Number 648 off the production line. Traded it to a guy in NYC for a 1000S in '99.
And now would be the perfect opportunity to trade back the 1000s to a guy in NYC for the same bike right??????? ;-TThink about what great bike karma it would get you!
Here's a BMW RS chasing a 660cc MZ Scorpion on some roads I've *very* familiar with. ;Dhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrizFGiLTcE
Great video , but not a '98 beemer , probably an '88 , whole different critter . Dusty
agreed, but the rider clearly say's "I'm on a 98 BMW" at 0:58 in..
Yep he does , probably an old guy like most of us . "Wait , what year is this bike?" ;D Dusty
At any rate, he is a good rider.. smooth. I saw the video because I'm looking at MZs, which I think could run away and hide from the big Beemer on those roads.. ;D
Nice bikes I had a 97 RS for a while, Only bike i have owned that just fit me, seat was good never thought about replacing it, I hated the gear box made a Guzzi box feel slick, and the off throttle abruptness , but I got used to it. I wouldn't mind having another.
It probably is an '84 , still a twin shocker , last 1000 for a couple of years . The Skorpions are cool , but I wouldn't put too much money on one smoking a well ridden oil head RS on most any normal road , those things can rock . Dusty
Couldn't tell. I fell asleep listening to the BMW drone.. ~; ;D Maybe Oklahoma normal.. ;D
There are times when I feel no love here <sigh > Dusty
