I posted this up on ADVrider and forgot to post it here. It's been in the TWTex family for a minute now, and now I'd like to see it go to a new home. Don't tell ADVrider, but I'll knock off $500 for the TWTex community.
2011 BMW F800gs
Mileage - 24,844
Price - $6,500
Location - Fayetteville, Arkansas
Nearest Airport - XNA
Listing my dad's BMW F800gs. We bought it early last year for some longer distance rides that we completed and now he is retiring from motorcycling. Clean and clear Arkansas title in my fathers name. Sale will include title, bill of sale and all keys.
No motorcycle trades, but will consider four wheel toys (side by side, four wheelers, 4x4 Tacomas) as partial/straight trades.
It is very well sorted and all of the maintenance is up to date. A good friend was a BMW mechanic at a local shop and took care of the 24,000 mile maintenance, along with the refresh when we bought the bike. The bike does have some scratches, but is relatively clean. The -only- issue is the ABS light comes on intermittently. The light came on after I insisted I install the front brake pads roughly 500 miles ago. I hadn't looked into it, as we were riding in gravel most of the time, and it only comes on once in a while. I watched a couple videos about it today, I may have installed the sensor wrong. I'll look more into it when the sun finally comes out again, but the bike brakes as normal without the ABS. (Since the listing, I've taken it for several rides and the ABS light has been off and ABS has been operating as usual. Mileage is now just over 25k. Can send videos of bike running/riding) Otherwise it starts and runs wonderfully. I would keep it for myself, but it's a little too nice to be dropping in the woods here in Arkansas.
