R-1200/C "Phoenix" Cruiser and a R100-R/T
Additional pictures are below.
I have a BMW 2001 Model R-1200C "Phoenix" Cruiser
First the
R-1200/C "Phoenix" The reason I am letting go of this great bike is that I was hit by a car within the crosswalk 300 feet from the main entrance of the Charles George VA Hospital in Asheville NC. This put me in the hospital for 2 months and then 3 months in rehab. My right knee is still not really strong enough to keep the bike upright when stopped. Also my left foot was crushed under the cars front tire and it has never gotten back together properly.
This bike has been kept in a dry dehumidified storage area all the time that I have owned it.
This bike has 12088 actual miles on it at this time. New front tire and new rear tire. Eurosport (BMW Dealer) in Asheville went through the bike and replaced the air filter and battery. In addition, they pulled a complete service on the bike meaning in addition to oil and filter, brake fluid, they inspected all fluids etc. and then did a NC State inspection as well. The bike is ready to ride today. The bike has a current tag and has a valid state inspection.
The small box on the rack has been taken off but could be put back on if
desired or a larger box could be installed. The luggage rack is
removable if desired. The windshield is a BMW Factory standard full shield and was
installed by the Eurosport BMW dealer.
The original small café fairing is stored away if one desires to remount
this on this bike instead of having a full windsheild. The saddlebags
currently on the bike are the largest version offered by BMW for this bike. I have installed
custom bar setbacks for the handlebars and have the original handlebars and
setbacks plus the
shorter cables if you desired to be restored back to a stripped down and basic style &
look.
The storage box which was removed was used to hold a HAM (Amateur radio) 2 meter
transceiver which I use when working with bicycle events or traveling.
If one is licensed for ham radio then this radio and antenna with
mount could be
included with this bike.
Now to the 1979
R-100 R/T
This bike is almost ready to ride but will require a little more work to get it back on the road. The disc brakes will need to be reworked and the wiring in the headlamp shell need to be finished up. The engine has had a complete rebuild of the jugs and harder no lead valves and seats are installed for using no lead gas.
The 1979 model year was the last
year that BMW made a smog free - epa free - motorcycle. This bike has had the New NO LEAD
valve seats and valves installed in the jugs.
The R-100R/T was in the process of being put back on the road but due to
the injury I had - I have not quite completed the job.
I have (9) nine boxes of spare misc. parts
Plus the factory training / service manuals for R-bikes from the R-750/5
(1965) through this bike but does
not include the manuals for the R-69 and prior or the K Bikes.
To much to list here in what parts I have but they are compatible with
all most
all of the R series bikes.
All of these parts will go with this bike when purchased.
The Bing carbs have been modified with the Bing NO LEAD Gas modification kit making them compatible with the ethanol additive use in todays gas. This modification was done by Bing at their US Service center. The mufflers are Stay-tuned Stainless Steel Mufflers.
Included are
the Lufmaster side fuel tanks that are mounted on the bike at this time.
They each hold 1 gal. each in addition to 4.7 gals on the main tank
making a total of about 6.7 gals.
There is a Stainless Steel mesh inside each side tank to control fuel motion.
These are stock as supplied by Lufmaster. I also
have a spare main fuel tank for this bike that could be custom painted if desired.
It is suppose to be the larger 5.75 gal. tank. The bags are full size Lufmaster bags
that are not shown. However I also have a second smaller set
of bags for this bike as well.
I will try to get good photos of the Lufmaster Fairing which is the one that came off of this bike. The one for this bike is Red and Silver and is complete with its frame mounting.
The Saeing Fairing as
seen in the photos is
also almost complete with most of the 6 point mounting hardware and could be
remounted as a 4 point mounting. Although parts for this fairing are no longer available,
you could contact Saeing to see if the hardware could still available available.

Note that the fairing is the one the bike came with. |
Above is the bike in 1998 with the Saeing fairing on. Left is when I was working with The Assault On Mt. Mitchell Bicycle Challenge as Lead Motorcycle Rider. The Assaults in 1994 had a total of 1400 bicycle riders leaving Spartanburg SC heading to the top of Mt. Mitchell - a total of +11,000 vertical feet of climbing in 102 miles in a one day event starting at 0630 hours and ending at 2000 hours. |

R-1200/C with additions of Windshield, Saddlebags and luggage rack for 2m HAM (Amateur) Radio. The Back rest folds down to form a passenger seat. |
Note that the black box on the rack is designed to hold a Amateur - Ham - 2 meter radio and the antenna is part of that system. This all has been removed but the rack is still in place. |
The odometer shows the actual mileage on the bike |
Case guards were installed to protect the engine and to give a place to put your feet. |
Showing the custom bar backs made for this bike. These were ordered from Calif. as a kit for this bike. This included the handlebars. There were dealer installed. |
Mount holding the Radio Control Head between custom bar back. Radio head and main radio has been removed. Licensed for HAM Radio then the radio and antenna etc is available if desired. |
This bike is factory wired for an
electric
jacket and gloves as well as for battery maintenance when parked for long periods of time. The battery tender is fully automatic and it comes with this bike. The seat has a aux. saddle pad that make it easier to move around on. The windshield has a mount for a GoPro Camera attached to it. This can be removed if desired. All of the mounting for the cafe fairing has been stored and is included with this bike should you want to put it back on. I do not recommend it unless you like bugs and gravel hitting you !! I have the Climers bike manual showing all of the necessary part for maintenance of this bike. BMW does not offer a manual except on PDF to the dealers. The Factory Tool Kit and Owners manual are included with this bike as well as rain gear. |
