    BMWOR Spring Open House

    Make Tracks GS Open House

    April has designated as national open house month for BMW Motorrad dealers in the US. And this year's open house has been designated as the year to celebrate BMW's Geland Strasse (GS) family of motorcycles.

    For more than two decades, BMW has been manufacturing some of the best bikes for tackling both asphalt and gravel/dirt travelways. 2006 is particularly special for BMW since there are 6 GS models to choose from including the newly introduced R1200GS Adventure, which will be available for your viewing/touching pleasure at BMWOR!

    Count them, that's 6 GS models: F650GS, F650GS with a lowered chasis, F650GS Dakar, R1200GS, R1200GS Adventure, and the HP2 Enduro, which is 6 more than some manufacturers and a couple more than the others! This means that BMW can provide most adventure oriented motorcycle enthusiasts with a GS model that meets their budget and/or riding needs.



    OPEN HOUSE EVENTS

    We have a full day of activities scheduled for the open house. Those activities include, but are not limited to:

  • Long Way Round - We will be showing the Long Way Round saga from start to finish in the BMWOR SD Theatre. The first episode will start at 9:00am and we'll wrap up the ending episode around 4:00pm.
  • Hole In The Wall Barbecue - From 11:30am to 1:30pm or until we run out, whichever comes first, BMWOR Service Department staff members will be serving up some great barbecue to our customers.
  • Hourly Door Prizes - We will be drawing for door prizes every hour on the half hour, starting at 9:30am. No purchase necessary. Must be present to win!
  • Grand Prizes Drawing - At the end of the day, we'll draw a number of names for some bigger prizes. For each $100 spent during the day, you'll be given a ticket for eligibility in the drawing at the end of the day. Presence during the drawing is not a requirement for winning.
  • Test Rides - Unlike last year, we don't have a rigid test ride schedule. Diane will be coordinating the test rides on Saturday, so fire off an email message to her at sales@bmwor.com to make your request.
  • Hearing Protection - Whether you're interested in some basic customer molded earplugs or custom molded earplugs with speakers in them, Liz Washington can make this happen. Liz will be at BMWOR from 10:00am to 2:00pm on Saturday making custom ear molds.
  • BMW Riders of Oregon (BMWRO) - BMWRO will be present at the open house to answer questions about the club, take membership renewals, and sign up new members from 10:00am to 2:00pm.
  • Proper Motorcycle Insurance Coverage - Getting motorcycle insurance is as easy as picking up the phone or logging on to a number of websites and building a policy in a matter of minutes; however, you may not be getting the proper coverage for you, your motorcycle, your accessories, and your passenger. When it comes to motorcycle insurance, few individuals know and understand the insurance industry as well as Roger Paquette. On Saturday from 10:00am to 2:00pm, Roger is willing to conduct motorcycle policy reviews and help you understand how you are and how you are not being properly covered.
  • BMW National Sweepstakes - Many of you are already aware of BMW's national sweepstakes, in which they will be giving away an R1200GS, Long Way Round DVDs, Long Way Round books, and some other cool stuff. Registration forms can be downloaded from BMW's national website or you can come by the dealership, pick one up, and fill it out. Either way, to be eligible for winning you must get the registration form validated by a BMW Motorcycle dealership during the month of April. Bring your registration form to our open house and we'll send your entry to BMW. The prize drawings will occur in late May. Full details are available at BMW's national website.


  • DIRT DON'T HURT DUALSPORT RIDE

    As a follow-up to Saturday's fun at the dealership, those individuals craving some dirty riding should meet at the Crow High School parking lot (Crow High School is located on Crow Road, east of Territorial Highway) between 9:00am and 9:15am on Sunday, April 16th.

    The ride consists of approximately 30 miles of asphalt and 30 miles of gravel in the Oregon Coast Range, eventually leading to the Vincent Creek Campground.

    The group will depart at 9:30am, so please make an effort to be prompt as the route markers will be pulled as the final rider in the group passes them. If you choose not to ride with the group, please find a willing riding partner or two, as riding alone is not a good idea.

    From 11:30am to 1:30pm, you'll find the Russell clan cooking and serving burgers & brats to the participants that enjoyed the dualsport ride or independently made their way to the campground on a motorcycle.

    DIRT DON'T HURT participants are required to sign a liability waiver prior to leaving the Crow High School.
