Letter From our Sales Manager

Don’t try this at home! Saturday morning heading West on 66th around Madison Avenue in stopped traffic, I am traveling between parked cars on the right, with stopped traffic on the left. This is one of those wide streets so I have plenty of room to go slowly and safely passed the stopped traffic. Well there is one car driver that is upset that his progress is impeded and mine is not. Yes, you guessed it, he swerves violently to the right and almost crushes me between his car and the parked cars. Instead of ignoring this and going on my way, yes you guessed it, I have to get off my bike and ask the nice guy if he would step out of his car so I can pummel him a bit. He reluntantly stays in his car. I regain my senses and realize what a stupid thing I am doing (driver may have: guns, knives, clubs, mace etc…) and go on my way. I decided to promise myself to never get that emotional, and certainly not to confront anyone ever again.

OK, now for some news from BMW of Manhattan Motorcycles. We have a special promotion where you can save $2k on the purchase of a 2006 K1200S and on certain models, if you finance, defer your first payment to BMW Financial Service for three months.

I am very happy to announce that we have a new Motorcycle Service Manager; his name is Rick Salazar. Rick is a professional and he has already made many improvements in our Customer Service.

Jane Schluter is on Maternity Leave, she is expecting in March of 2007; until Jane returns you can contact me or our new member of the team, Andy Morris, Motorcycle Sales Client Advisor . Andy can be reached at 212-314-9760 or amorris@bmwnyc.com .

Hope you all have a great Holiday Season!

"FOR SOME THERE'S THERAPY, FOR THE REST OF US THERE'S MOTORCYCLES"

Ride this winter.
Pay next summer.

BMW has always believed in a 12-month riding season. That's why our bikes are available with ABS, traction control and built to ride in almost any road condition. It's the reason every BMW motorcycle comes with a 3 year or 36,000-mile warranty. And starting November 20th, BMW is offering one more incentive to ride this winter: no payments until next summer.

The Low Down
Here is how it works: when you finance the purchase of a select BMW motorcycle through BMW Financial Services between now and December 31st, 2006 your first 120 days are payment - free. Then, when the payments do kick in sometime next spring, BMWFS picks up the tab on the first three. When it's all said and done, that's 7 months of riding your new BMW motorcycle before spending a single cent.

What will you do?
Our riding season has no off-season. Where will you spend the next 7 months? With four bikes to choose from and no payments until the summer your only answer should be, "On the road." But make sure to take advantage this offer now, or you'll spend the next 7 months kicking yourself instead.

For complete details how to ride on BMW motorcycles for the next 7 months go to www.bmwmotorcycles.com or call (212) 373-7863
and make an appointment with one of our client advisors.


This offer is subject to credit approval and is not available in all states, applies only to 2006 model year K 1200 R, K 1200 LT, R 1200 RT and R 1200 GS motorcycles, and is subject to availability and dealer stock.

From our Service Department

Meet our new Service Manager!

Rick Salazar began his love affair with motorcycles at the early age of four. His father was a mechanic who used to race hill climbs for Harley Davidson. Indian Motorcycles then started him off with a home brew miniature motorcycle before the advent of “mini-bikes”. He quickly progressed to motor cross and then flat track racing while dabbling with half midget cars and drag racing street rods. So, it was a natural progression to enter the dealership world in the service department!

Since the early eighties, Rick has managed successful service departments winning awards for customer satisfaction and improved business from multiple high and mid-line franchises. His attention to detail, emphasis on technician’s training as well as empathetic attitude toward customers, brings BMW of Manhattan Motorcycles into the twenty first century miles ahead of the competition. Welcome to the fam Rick!
