    Thanks to our customers, we have been extremely busy during the last six months. This "busy-ness" has been the reason for a delay in you receiving any recent newsletters and us hosting any specific events at the dealership. Although we're still quite busy, we're jumpstarting those activities once again. The following highlights things that have taken place over the last several months:

  • Chief Joseph Rally We very much enjoyed our attendance at the Chief Joseph Rally in John Day and we're making plans to attend in similar fashion for 2006.
  • HP2 Enduro Arrives and Quickly Leaves We recently received one of the 330 new HP2 Enduros coming to the US. Since this customer was attending an off-road school in Southern California, we had the bike at the dealership for less than a week! Some of our customers were able to swing by and take a look at it in person and those of us that had a chance to ride it were all equally thrilled by BMW's latest product development. This is particularly encouraging as we are nearing another year of new product roll-out from BMW!
  • Eugene Police Department Gets a New Look Recently, BMWOR received 11R1150RT-Ps for the City of Eugene. This means in the very near future, you’ll spot Eugene’s finest on BMW’s instead of Harleys. Each of the officers have already picked out ‘their’ bike and we are honored to build them to their specifications!
  • Technician in Accident As many of you have heard, one of our technicians, Sam Dallas-Dinwiddie, was in a bad accident in October. The original prognosis was not good; however, Sam has surprised us all in amazing ways. Sam was in a coma for about two and a half weeks, then awoke and has been making huge recovery leaps since then. He was released from ICU and moved into a more standard hospital room. At the writing of this newsletter, he is speaking very clearly, answering questions and should be released to a rehabilitation facility in a matter of days. The support we have received from various customers and vendors has been tremendous. Thank you for your generosity!

  • Reorganization of ‘Rides’: Now that summer is past, we’ll finally make time to ride! Beginning in November, look for our Ride Destinations posted on our website calendar or our shop bulletin board. We’ll post the destination date, place and time, you ride your favorite way to get there! See You There!

    NOVEMBER RIDE

    As with last year, we'll encourage willing souls to take a ride on Sunday, November 27th. This is the Sunday following Thanksgiving. Our destination will be the "Firehouse Restaurant" (1263 Bay Street, 541.997.2800) in Florence. We'll plan on meeting there at 1:00pm.

    CYCLE WORLD INTERNATIONAL MOTORCYCLE SHOW IN SEATTLE

    Need a break from the daily grind? Maybe a trip to Seattle the first weekend of December is just what you need. The Cycle World International Motorcycle Show will be at the Qwest Field & Events Center December 2-4. Madelyn and Scott will be supporting BMW in their booth on Sunday, December 4th. If you plan on attending, stop by the dealership for $2 discount coupons.

    DECEMBER RIDE

    For the last ride of the year, we'll try a new destination. On December 11th we'll meet at the Log Cabin Inn at 1:00pm. This is the historic Log Cabin located in McKenzie Bridge, which has a reputation for serving up great food.

    DECEMBER EVENT

    This event will be December 13-17 and geared towards the sale of our demo bikes. We'll be offering a great opportunity to purchase an R1200GS, K1200R, K1200S, R1200ST, and a R1200RT. While these bikes have some miles on them, they still are entitled to BMW's warranty and will be offered at considerable price reductions.

    PLEASE NOTE: For legal reasons, rides are not officially organized by BMW Motorcycles of Western Oregon; therefore, riding to and from a meeting destination is clearly at the will and discretion of each individual and participants are solely responsible for themselves.



    NEW BMW MOTORCYCLE MODELS

    2006 will be another fantastic year of the introduction of new BMW models. At this time, we don't have any details, but we can expect to see the following new models:

  • R1200GS Adventure
  • R1200S
  • K1200GT
  • F800S

    So, stay tuned for images and more details.

    Referral Rewards

    If you refer someone that purchases a motorcycle from BMWOR and they disclose that you referred them to us before the close of the sale, you will be rewarded with a $50 BMWOR Gift Certificate!!

    Pre-Owned Motorcycles

    We routinely have pre-owned motorcycles in our inventory. Some of these motorcycles are trade-ins, while others are consignment bikes. The best way to know what we have in stock is to simply visit our website. Examples of some of our current pre-owned inventory can be found along the left side of this newsletter.


  • AutoCom Sale

    All AutoCom kits are 50% off. AutoCom is removing the excuse that their communication and audio integration kits are too expensive by reducing their suggested retail prices by 50%! Now is the time to hook yourself up with the industry's leading communication/audio integration system. This promotion expires 12/31/05 and cannot be combined with other offers.

    BMW NAVIGATOR II+ GPS

    Not unlike AutoCom, Garmin has teamed up with BMW to offer a $100 rebate for the purchase of the NAV II+. This puts the price of the NAV II+ competitive with Garmin's 2620; however, some of the features and functions of the NAV II+ are exclusive to BMW's version. This promotion expires 12/31/05 and cannot be combined with other offers.

    Gift Certificates

    BMWOR Gift Certificates are available for the "tough to shop for" individual. Gift certificates can be made for any amount and can be used for parts & accessories purchases, riding gear, service, and motorcycle purchases.



    Service Scheduling

    Regardless of the fact that it's almost December, we're still about two weeks out on scheduling appointments for service customers. With this in mind, now is the time to be planning on getting your bike scheduled for routine and more major service projects during the winter months.

    Pick-Up & Delivery

    Is your schedule so busy that you're having a tough time getting your motorcycle in for service? 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 still need customers to submit digital images for consideration in the "2006 BMWOR Customer Calendar". We're on a quest to collect digital pictures from customers while they're traveling by motorcycle. In December, 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.


    Personnel Update

    Please help us welcome David Hall to the Service Department. David started with us last week as a BMW Certified Technician.
