Monday Trade In of the Week


Hey Everyone and welcome to this weeks highlighted trade in motorcycle. This week we have a beautiful 2005 BMW R1200ST. The R1200ST was only built in 2005 and despite somewhat weak sales initially they have become one of the most sought after sport touring bikes in BMW's lineup. Under the one of a kind bodywork is a chassis not all that dissimilar from the BMW R1200RT. The luggage is the same, the frame is nearly identical, the engine electronics are spot on and the options packages all ran parallel. Where the ST set's itself apart from the RT is ergonomics and handling. The ST has a slightly more aggressive sitting position and footpeg location. It's a lot like riding an angrier, more raw, potentially more street capable version of the R1200RT. Best of both worlds really: You can carve your favorite roads apart while at the same time carrying the full size BMW system luggage and a comfortable passenger. This particular bike has the optional tall windscreen, Anti Lock Brakes, fold-out highway pegs, cylinder protectors and Leo Vince slip on exhaust. 28,491 miles on the odometer means this bike is barely even broke in! Come on down and take it for 24 hours...priced at $10,942 we're pretty sure you'll fall in love with this R1200ST.


Thanks for reading
