BMW R1100R 1996
Walk Around, Warm Start and the commencement of a sad farewell after 6 six years of ownership. 50,300 Miles.
Ridden away to a new home: 25032017
BMW produced very few of them, not a popular model, considered ugly by many but not by me. Easy to maintain/service ( DIY) and a superb tourer - smooth, no viby spots, great weather protection and brilliant manoeuvrability. Now....time to enjoy my XJR1300! :)

That's lovely to hear Steve. I've always regretted selling her. Still, need to move on. Went to South of France and Italy amongst others. I really enjoyed bringing her to showroom condition during my ownership. Spend lots of money on her along the way. Hope you have happy times. Say "Hi" for me.... 😊
Przepiękne BMW ! Gratuluję i podziwiam.
what a beautiful machine!
She is a testament to your ownership a nd has only covered 4000 miles since you sold her respect stev6
Szép gép, csúnya hang.

I just bought a very very nice 1996 model R850R. I am about to start riding it this week in earnest. I had never had a Boxer and wanted to give one a go. What problems have you had with yours? I am trying to learn what to watch out for going forward. Mine has 20K on it today, and not a speck of rust.
Best street bike!!
just bought a 99 last week! sounds like roofing work going on in the background lol

Wow. Congratulations. That's fantastic! I've always regretted selling mine. Only only if I had of kept her. Even thought about buying back. I've got an R1250GS, which I love, but given the option, I would opt for the R1100R. It's not all about performance and technology! Happy riding.

@@CLLUK thank you! I rode a modern GS once and they’re an absolute blast but there’s definitely something about just you and the bike with the older 1100r

What is the teal switch with an orange background that can be seen at 3:02?

Sorry Austin at the late reply :). There are two orange switches here on the right handlebar, the one that I think you are referring to is the left/right canceler (unique, no maybe not, to BMs)

The “round teal” push button is the starter button, on top of the orange “kill switch”, which works both to the left and right.

Okay, I didn't know they came without ABS. I've thought so many times of trying to find another one. Should of listened to all those people telling me not to sell it. Hope you find what you're looking for.

Lovely bike, looking to upgrade from a 2019 V85 TT to a 1998 R1100R That is.. if the old owner can find his keys >. What type of engine oil did you used to use (reading that this can be an interesting subject) :)
