a

motorcycle
available
in

This
model
is
BMW's
next
effort
in
creating
lightweight,
powerful
motorcycles
that
will
be
put
to
the
test
in
off-road
competition.
With
limited
production
this
year,
US
dealers
will
be
likely
receive
only
one
of
these
models.
At
$21.5K,
this
bike
is
made
for
the
select
few.2006
R1150GS
ADVENTURE
-
2004
and
2005
saw
the
R1150GS
Adventure
sell
out
much
more
quickly
than
BMW
anticipated.
In
response,
BMW
will
be
producing
a
limited
number
of
the
R1150GS
Adventure
this
summer.
Labeled
as
a
2006
model
in
matte
white
paint
with
a
black
and
blue
seat,
only
100
units
will
be
brought
into
the
US.
With
such
limited
numbers,
this
will
likely
become
a
collector's
item.
Units
should
arrive
at
participating
dealers
(i.e.
BMWOR)
in
September
or
October
2005
with
an
anticipated
price
tag
of
$15.75K.

Tire
Pressure:
So
you're
ready
to
take
your
motorcycle
out
for
the
first
time
this
season,
have
you
checked
your
tire
pressure?
This
is
one
of
the
most
common
items
neglected
by
motorcyclists
and
it
can
turn
into
one
of
the
deadliest. Many
of
BMW's
newer
models
suggest
tire
pressures
of
36
psi
for
the
front
and
42
psi
for
the
rear,
but
check
you
manual
for
specific
recommendations
and
then
verify
that
your
tires
are
inflated
properly. Low
tire
pressures
can
lead
to
poor
motorcycle
handling,
shorter
tire
life,
and
lousy
fuel
economy,
on
top
of
being
life
threatening! To
date,
we
received
one
motorcycle
in
for
a
service
appointment
with
a
front
tire
pressure
of
10
lbs.!
YIKES!
Please
take
the
extra
time
to
maintain
your
tire
pressures.
If
you
find
that
this
is
troublesome,
stop
by
and
check
out
the
SmarTire
system
which
will
provide
you
with
real-time
information
about
your
tire
pressures.
Service
Loaners:
Don't
forget
to
ask
for
a
service
loaner
when
you
make
an
appointment,
as
availability
is
on
a
first
come,
first
served
basis.
Pick-Up
&
Delivery:
Is
your
schedule
so
busy
that
you're
having
a
tough
time
getting
your
motorcycle
in
for
service
before
the
spring
rush?
Perhaps
we
can
help.
BMWOR
offers
a
pick-up
and
delivery
service
for
its
customers.
Cost
will
vary
depending
on
location
and
number
of
bikes
being
picked
up.
And
we'll
reduce
our
costs
for
multiple
pick-ups
in
the
same
geographic
vicinity. |

We
want
your
help!!
We're
on
a
quest
to
collect
digital
pictures
from
customers
while
they're
traveling
by
motorcycle.
Then,
at
the
end
of
the
year,
we're
going
to
have
customers
that
visit
the
dealership
vote
on
the
twelve
images
to
be
placed
in
the
"2006
BMWOR
Customer
Calendar".
If
you
would
like
your
images
to
be
considered
for
the
calendar,
please
email
them
to
info@bmwor.com. |
