1984 BMW R100RT
Stock Number: 243586
This is a great bike with under 60,000 original miles, but you've got to
like the very cool (IMNSHO) black bed liner paint job the fairing got.
We have no idea if this could be removed, let alone easily but that's up
to you. The bike starts, runs, shifts, stops and does pretty much
everything it should fine. There is some minor exposure damage to the
paint and hardware but no indications of accident or crash damage. Both
valve covers do have very minor scuffs on them but not the kind of marks
that come from even a hard tip over on asphalt.
There are no tools included but the original owners manual comes with
it. It does have a pretty decent set of BMW Touring cases and the right bag lid has the typical small hairline crack by one lock that thousands of them experienced from a rivet hole being drilled too small during manufacturing. A little black silicone caulk will make it almost vanish and be as weather tight as these bags ever were. We don't have the keys to the saddlebags and it comes with only one ignition key so after buying it I'd encourage the new owner to pay to have us cut one more.
It has Progressive rear shocks, a Reynolds Ride Off center stand, nice period correct handlebar riser extensions, a Corbin dual canyon seat, BMW luggage rack/seat rail, an d serviceable BMW mufflers that may need replacement down the road but as still solid. The rear tire is in excellent condition and the front tire should be replaced now. The dual
front discs look like they have a reasonable amount of life left in them but the rear looks like it should be replaced now. There is an almost new Parabellum windscreen with the dash extension and the four (4) lower panels consisting of the left, right, center and grill section are all included and shown laying on the ground; the hardware is not included but we can supply that for whatever the cost of those bolts, screws, washers and little rubber covers are -- I'd guess about 20 bucks or so.
Offered at a very reasonable $1,995 or we might just part it out.
Stock Number: 015229 Color: Blue Mileage: 121,061 (odometer shows 110,463) Accessories & Options: bar backs, Parrabellum fairing/tall screen, BMW luggage rack, BMW saddlebag mounts, tool kit, full fork boots, BMW fuel and temperature gauges installed in fairing sides, progressive fork springs and a updated rear stock BMW shock. Three keys included. We just installed the belly pan. Cosmetic Condition: good especially considering the age & miles, but there are some areas where paint is wearing thin and it’s possible that a long time ago a few panels may have been repainted. It has strong curb appeal and presents well. There’s no current indication the bike was crashed or dropped and all alloy, hardware, wheels, etc look very good. Wheels actually look perfect and most original black driveline parts look excellent as well, but the fork legs show their age as most do being exposed to all the road debris right up front. We estimate it needs a rear disc (about $470 but just pads in VA) and fuel pump ($385) to get running and pass MD State Inspection. Click here for more photographs and information.
Stock Number: 131612 Color: Black Mileage: 64,154 Accessories & Options: Progressive shocks, front screen/fairing, tank bag
Cosmetic Condition: was repainted, lots of tread on older tires, one mirror broken, would likely need discs for MD Inspection but can registered on historic tags without inspection, seat needs recovering, front master cylinder has a minor weep, bike cranks but does not start, likely a fuel pump, needs tank overhaul and relining, water pump and oil pump leak/weep. With the tank redone ($300+/-) and fuel pump ($385+/- parts) could be put back on the road.
Price: $1,395 OBO
Dear Bob,
Thank you for taking time out of your busy day during the Vintage/Classic
Bike Show & Shine to see me off on my used R1200GS purchase. You have
done so many wonderful things for my fiance and I over the last few months
to help us realize our dream of owning a pair of BMW motorcycles that I
can not begin to thank you enough. A friendly hand shake and a complimentary
pen to mark the occasion were an unexpected surprise, which immediately
set you apart from any dealership experience that I've had before. I am
always happy to cross the threshold of your store to spend time talking
with your extremely knowledgeable and extraordinarily cheerful staff. The
quality of customer care, which I've grown accustomed to receiving from
each one of them is second to none. Thanks again for making Bob's BMW feel
like a home away from home.
Sincerely,
Anthony Gill

Please call (301-497-8949 x218) and make Bob himself an offer “he just can’t refuse”. You can email him to at bob@bobsbmw.com. It’s been here plenty long and it’s overdue to be in your garage or that of your best friend being resurrected or dismantled. The donor would love to get a letter for tax purposes sometime soon as well.
Joel Talka here from New Jersey. You called me earlier this week (Monday I think) to chat about the bike which I took delivery of this last Saturday. The bike was the 2006 K1200LT in Ocean Blue.. the one with only 3700 miles on it (i.e. new!!).
I just wanted to let you know that I am extremely satisfied with the bike (I actually LOVE it) as I am with the service of your staff members Charlie Goss and Robbii. They both went way out of their way to make this transaction easy for me. I worked with Charlie for about a week to put the whole thing together... he is a great guy and a real asset to your organization. While I did not get a chance to meet Robbii, she was on top of all the paperwork and has made the transaction truly "painless"... Hats off to the both of them. You have a great place. This was the first time I was to your location but I have been reading about you folks for years in BMW Owners News. I just wish you were a bit closer so I could get down there more often... back and forth is a decent day trip. I have the package of goodies which you were generous enough to provide... I'm writing with your pen as fast as I can so as to create an excuse to pop back in soon.
Bottom line; great bike, great place, great folks, super experience....
All the best, Joel Talka
1981 BMW R65LS
Stock Number: 370250 Color: Orange Mileage: 19,760 miles Condition: This is a tough call, a sweet bike in great cosmetic condition and good mechanical condition, hard to call it a project because it has no immediate needs, because we did them all, but we might do a few more items in the future. It was previously listed as a “project” at a lower price but we couldn’t resist doing a few more mechanical items to it which raised the price a bit. We installed a new front tire, installed new front brake pads and caliper hardware (the discs pass MD State Inspection), re-installed the EPA kit, replaced the carb diaphragms, floats, float needles, and bowl gaskets, adjusted the valves, replaced the fuel lines, and changed the oil and filter. This bike runs “as sweet as a nut” per our airhead guru Dave G. in service after going through it. Future needs might be a bi-annual service (rest of the fluids), maybe a fresh rear tire (currently lots of tread and passes MD State Inspection), maybe fresh shocks down the road and a few other odds and ends but all typical stuff on a 30yr old bike but again nothing apparent needed today or this season. We have in stock, and sell, shocks, side cases and other items for this bike. We also have a rare and out of production Guiliari Sport seat with paint to match rear integrated cowl , in excellent condition, available for an additional $495. This bike can be registered as historic in most, if not all, States. This is one you can buy knowing it’s been gone through and runs great.

BOB’S BMW IS OFFERING AN INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A GREAT USED BMW AND DO SOME SERIOUS GOOD IN THIS WORLD!
1990 BMW K75RT stock number 199461
Bob was recently given a very nice 1990 BMW K75RT by the second owner who was just not riding it that much. He had read that Bob occasionally took in used motorcycles and then refurbished and sold them to generate donations for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation who sponsors the Ride for Kids ® events each year around the country. He also read that Bob did not keep anything for his time and efforts, simply covering the cost of the service work required. He wanted to help us raise more money than we raised the previous year. >>more
Please call Bob directly at 301-497-8949 x218 or email him at bob@bobsbmw.com with any questions or your offer. He did ask when this was being written that you understand that not only is this a great motorcycle but you’ll be helping to do something really good so please don’t make him an offer he’d be foolish to accept --- in the same manner that the prior owner stepped up to the plate and paid for the service he’s looking for someone that gets what’s taking place and that they’ll be getting a turnkey $5,000 used BMW motorcycle in the process regardless of it they pay more or less than that amount for it.
So who out there is looking for a great used BMW and wants to do something really good?
Dear Ashton,
I thought I'd take a minute and thank you and everyone involved for handling the transaction so efficiently and professionally. Over the course of my life I've dealt with many people in the motorcycle sales/service industry, and Bob's BMW is definitely above them all.
I hated to sell that bike, but I know you'll find it a good home. Best for a successful riding season.
Yours truly,
Steve Rouzer
