There's a K1200LT at Dili for sale at $6900. Mileage of around 60k? or 40k km.. not too sure.

 

99 year model needs need COE.

 

Check it out. Not a boxer though.

Hi guys.. It turns out that my brother's bike is not due to weak battery..

PML said that the starter motor suffered wear and tear.. Thus the wallet throws up abt $500.. Not my wallet though.. Hee..

[XiaoMing]

I was looking at the Blue RT too... is the price reasonable? tough question... but if I like the badge and don't mind riding a COE bike, I will go for it and make sure I have some cash standby for following :

 

A) $3k for ABS

B) $3k for clutch replacement

c) $5k to replace the left chain tensioner inside the engine, many R11 experience broken left side chain tensioner

e) $1k for new disc plate for front and back

f) $300 for new starter motor

 

Immediate action after taking the bike...

d) $500 to replace a new hall sensor

e) $300 for valve adjustment

f) $200 for oil, air filter replacement

g) $300 for a new battery

h) $100 for new brake pads

i) new paint? new wiring or rewiring?

 

think still have some more tt I cannot think of now, then you will sure have a nice and enjoyable ride...

 

 

correction, starter motor - $500/-

[Blackie21]

Old bikes have more character. 2 of mine are on their 2nd COE already.

 

Coils ($200 each) and HT ($85 eachx4) leads can cost money as well but you are able to get them used off ebay or breakers in the UK.

 

Most impt thing in my books are the suspension,I always change mine to aftermarket ones, and brakes - steel braided lines and EBC-HH/original Brembo pads!

 

Assuming the engine is fine.

[XiaoMing]

Blackie, the two gems you have are definitely worth the effort.

 

Cheers...

Thanks mate!

[civicblade]

Yup, i'm impressed by the 12year old R1100R. Rides unexpectedly well.

 

Used the bike for commuting for the past 3 days. Encounter 3 jams, CTE southbound in the morning twice and PIE east bound just now.

 

The bike is nimble enough to lane split and keep up with the pace of the cubs and super4s.

[DaN zI]

anybodY here own a BMW HP2 sport?saw it at pml.com.sg and was like wow ,wonder how much it cost lol

[civicblade]

Hi Danzi,

 

Why don't you ask the sales person for the price?

 

Should be in excess of 40k.

[Replay]

US$45 bucks.

I reckon freight will be at least a S$100 to be safe; so you are looking at less than S$200. Not bad.

 

Cheers

Thanks man!!

S$60k machine price? Still cheaper than 1098R and MGS01...

You ride with panniers? How's ease of squeeze?

 

Cheers

[civicblade]

Ease of squeeze is good without the panniers. Comparable to the super4. No worries when I'm on the R1100R even when I see a jam ahead.

[Phang]

Hi Phang,

 

How much does it cost you for the rear disc?

 

Thanks

 

Sorry for the late reply as I only saw your question today when I scrolled back the thread.

34212331028-----rotor bolts (M8X20)X5---US $7.60

34212335465-----brake pads----------------US$52.20

 

Total--------------------------------------------US$230.08 (around S$312 @ 1.35rate)

The green RT11? yes it is for sales... but understand owner asking quite high price... the engine sound good and good condition but need a good wash.

NEARLY - (adv.) In a near manner; not remotely; closely; intimately; almost.

SOLD - v. Past tense and past participle of sell.

[paithorn]

wah bro Xiao Ming, din know your English so powderful....

[civicblade]

To me, it is only Sold or Available.

 

Nearly sold has no meaning in the context of selling and buying of motorbikes.

[civicblade]

Hi Mamat,

 

I'm wondering if Dili owns those used bike that are there for sale or are they just consigning for owners? Do they charge storage fees for those bikes on sale?

 

I've got similar comments from the staff at Dili regarding the K1200LT. According to them, the reason that it is hard to leave the showroom is due mainly to the intimidating size and weight of the machine. Secondly, the K engine is much more complex and difficult to maintain than the R boxer. engine.
