RIDES
FORMAT
UPDATE:
You
have
spoken
and
we
are
responding.
As
before,
we
will
provide
a
meeting
time
at
the
dealership
for
individuals
that
want
to
ride
together
to
our
designated
destination.
If
you
want
to
ride
with
us,
we
request
that
you
read
and
sign
a
liability
release
waiver;
otherwise,
you're
more
than
welcome
to
ride
your
own
route,
at
your
own
pace,
and
simply
meet
us
at
the
destination!
Hopefully,
this
format
will
provide
the
best
opportunity
for
our
customers
to
participate
in
whatever
way
they
feel
most
comfortable.
PLEASE
NOTE:
For
legal
reasons,

therefore,
riding

of
each
individual
and
participants
are
solely

NEW
BMW
MOTORCYCLE
INVENTORY Our
showroom
is
full
of
new
motorcycles!
We
have
GSs,
RTs,
LTs,
K1200Ss,
K1200Rs,
STs,
and
still
a
few
demo
units
as
well
as
Harley
Davidson
police
motors!
And
if
you
haven't
heard
already,
BMW
repositioned
the
price
on
the
F650GS
and
F650GS
Dakar
models
last
fall.
Given
that
the
average
drop
in
price
was
ove
$1K,
the
FGS
models
have
seen
tremendous
sales
during
the
winter
and
spring
months.
So,
if
you
have
always
liked
one
of
those
two
models
and
you've
been
saving
your
pennies,
now
is
the
time
to
make
a
purchase,
because
at
the
current
rate,
we'll
likely
sell
out
of
them
before
the
summer
is
through!
NEW
BMW
MOTORCYCLE
MODELS 2006
is
shaping
up
to
be
a
great
year
for
BMW.
We
finally
have
details
on
the
delivery
of
the
following
new
models:
R1200GS
Adventure:
This
motorcycle
will
arrive
to
US
retailers
in
late
March,
just
in
time
for
the
Make
Tracks
Spring
Open
House
events
in
April.
The
latest
model
in
BMW's
GS
family
is
as
gnarly
as
ever.
It's
truly
the
R1200GS
on
steroids
-
larger
windscreen,
voluminous
fuel
tank,
knobby
tires,
fairing/engine
protection
bars,
and
options
like
aluminum
panniers
made
for
BMW
by
Touratech,
and
discretely
placed
supplemental
lights.
K1200GT:
We'll
see
this
incarnation
of
the
new
transverse
4
cylinder
in
late
May.
With
easily
adjustable
handlebars,
I
think
most
riders
will
find
the
seating
position
very
customizable
and
virtually
as
upright
as
the
R1200RT!
New
option
offerings
such
as
Tire
Pressure
Monitoring
(TPM)
and
automatically
controlled
heated
handlebar
controls
makes
the
new
K1200GT
a
wonderful
touring
bike.
R1200S:
As
BMW
continues
to
make
inroads
in
new
market
segments,
the
R1200S
helps
facilitate
growth
into
the
sport
segment.
The
lightest
weight,
greatest
horsepower
outputting
boxer
will
likely
turn
heads
as
never
before.
Stealth,
power,
and
a
new
anti-lock
braking
system
(ABS)
that
can
be
disabled
for
track
days
will
certainly
attract
new
blood
to
the
marque.
F800S/ST/R:
The
US
will
not
see
this
bike
in
2006.
A
stunt
version
of
this
bike
is
making
its
way
to
popular
motorcycle
events
in
the
US,
but
BMW
will
to
make
a
big
splash
with
this
bike
in
the
US
probably
in
the
spring
of
2007.
R1200?:
BMW
hasn't
released
any
information
yet,
other
than
that
we'll
see
another
model
later
this
year.
We
have
our
ideas
and
suspect
that
another
R1200
series
bike
is
in
the
works.
Due
to
the
growing
anticipation
of
these
new
models,
we
are
seeing
a
growing
list
of
downpayments
for
interested
individuals.
If
you
fall
in
this
category,
make
sure
you
contact
Diane
at
541.338.0269
or
via
email
at
sales@bmwor.com.
So,
stay
tuned
for
images
and
more
details.

Service
Scheduling Well
it's
already
March
and
the
sun
has
started
showing
itself
back
in
Oregon,
so
service
appointment
phone
calls
have
picked
up.
At
this
time,
we're
about
two
weeks
or
so
out
on
scheduling
appointments
for
service
customers.
With
this
in
mind,
now
is
the
time
to
call
and
arrange
for
an
appointment.
Whether
it's
something
something
simple
like
an
oil
change
or
something
a
little
more
time
consuming
like
a
12K
Service
plus
an
Annual
Service;
by
making
an
appointment,
we
can
block
out
specific
time
to
address
your
needs.
In
taking
this
approach,
the
Service
Department
is
doing
a
great
job
of
getting
regular
services
finished
within
a
one-day
timeframe.
Pick-Up
&
Delivery
Service This
offering
has
started
to
gain
popularity;
in
fact,
we
have
a
dedicated
person
to
pick-up
and
delivery
of
motorcycles.
Many
of
you
may
have
known
him
for
some
time
and
if
not,
you'll
probably
recognize
his
name...Gene
Fessenbecker.
If
your
schedule
still
demands
you
split
your
free-time
among
chores
and
play,
give
us
a
call
and
we
can
reduce
one
less
item
from
your
to-do
list!
And
if
you
can
recruit
a
friend
to
also
participate
in
the
Pick-Up
&
Delivery
Service,
both
of
your
costs
can
be
reduced.
Actual
cost
will
vary
depending
on
location
and
number
of
bikes
being
picked
up. |

Thanks
to
those
of
you
that
submitted
images
for
the
BMWOR
2006
Calendar.
We
dedicated
the
calendar
to
Sam
Dallas-Dinwiddie
and
had
a
great
collection
of
images
from
which
to
choose.
We
had
fun
producing
this
calendar
and
look
forward
to
your
help
for
the
2007
calendar.
The
BMWOR
2006
Calendar
(see
left
sidebar
for
a
collage)
included
images
from
the
following
BMW
enthusiasts:
Bruce
&
Carol
Wallace
(Bend),
Madelyn
Russell
(Eugene),
Ken
Froebig
(Eugene),
Jim
Sims
&
Ann
Bartley
(Springfield),
Dana
White
(Beaverton),
Peter
Vanish
(Springfield),
Francis
Eatherington
(Roseburg),
Pete
Day
(Eugene),
Bill
Mullen
(Wheeler),
and
Riley
West
(Eugene).
We
still
have
a
couple
copies
of
the
calendar
left
for
a
cost
of
$12.00.
So,
now
we're
seeking
photos
for
the
BMWOR
2007
Calendar.
As
a
small
point
of
clarification,
we're
interested
in
images
of
your
BMW
Motorcycle
in
a
landscape
without
people/riders
present.
If
you
would
like
your
images
to
be
considered
for
the
calendar,
please
email
them
to
info@bmwor.com. |

Employment
Opportunities As
our
business
grows,
we
have
continued
to
add
staff
members
to
help
us
cover
the
bases
and
offer
our
customers
unparalleled
service.
So,
the
next
time
you
visit
the
dealership,
you
may
see
some
new
faces
among
our
staff
members.
Some
of
these
faces
may
be
familiar,
but
new
to
the
dealership.
Since
September
of
2005,
we've
added
the
following
individuals
to
our
staff:
Gene
Fessenbecker,
Pick-Up
&
Delivery
Service
Coordinator
While
Gene
is
not
a
full-time
employee,
his
efforts
and
commitment
mirror
that
of
a
full-time
employee.
Gene's
primary
responsibility
is
helping
us
to
provide
the
Pick-Up
&
Delivery
Service.
So
don't
be
surprised
to
see
Gene
knocking
on
your
door
if
you
request
us
to
pick-up
or
deliver
your
motorcycle.
David
Hall,
BMW
Certified
Technician
David
joined
us
in
November
as

full-time
BMW
Certified
Technician.
David
has
been
a
wonderful
addition
to
the
Service
Department
and
makes
an
effort
to
go
the
extra
mile
for
our
customers.
Lin
Hamlin,
Parts
Advisor
Lin
started
in
late
January
and
has
been
working
with
Doug
to
field
parts
calls
and
purchases.
Lin
is
an
avid
motorcyclist
and
brings
her
experience
in
parts
and
accessories
to
us
from
Touratech.
So
the
next
time
you
come
in,
be
sure
to
say
hi
and
introduce
yourself
to
Lin.
And
don't
be
surprised
when
you
learn
that
she
owns
more
motorcycles
than
about
99%
of
our
customers!
Lora
VanDerBroek,
Service
Advisor
Lora
will
be
starting
later
this
month
as
our
Service
Advisor.
Lora
comes
to
us
from
the
Colorado
frontrange
and
help
us
raise
the
bar
in
the
Service
Department.
Her
primary
responsibilities
will
be
service
scheduling,
and
checking
bikes
in/out
of
service.
Scott
with
be
working
with
Lora
over
the
next
month
to
ensure
a
smooth
transition.
Please

Please
help
us
congratulate
Fred
Hasse
of
Eugene
on
traveling
over
200,000
miles
on
BMW
Motorcycles!
Way
to
go
Fred!
And,
we
can't
forget
that
a
number
of
those
miles
were
put
on
BMWs
with
his
trusty,
fun-loving
co-pilot,
Gladys.
If
you
know
that
you've
accumulated
enough
miles
to
qualify
for
one
of
BMW's
mileage
awards,
bring
your
documentation
into
the
shop
and
have
Scott
submit
the
paperwork.
It's
that
easy! |
