Even though my K1100RS is in the hands of another, I am keeping an eye out for a nice K75S that needs a good home....

Stumbled across this today.

Wow, $12K! I guess it has appreciated, except it's probably got all kinds age and underuse issues. I guess it's a living room piece.

Yeah - Limited Edition - 842 miles - no wonder it's 12k...

I'd still like to get my hands on a K75RTP.

If the guy I sold my 75RT to called me tomorrow and asked if I wanted to buy it back, I probably would...

Yea, wow is all I can say too.

Someday if I get another bmw I'd consider a K75 or something with a little less mass and weight.

"Limited Edition" = We're only gonna make these until we run out of parts inventory in the warehouse since we're discontinuing them.

What's so "limited" about this bike?

- Seat that's not only uncomfortable but fugly red to boot? I guess they'd already run out of comfort seats.

- Chrome heat shield? (I got one of those in my basement.)

- Std. paint job, doesn't even have pinstripes.

With <1K miles it's a good collector or museum piece though. I can't imagine spending that much for something that you're actually going to ride.

I agree with FD.

Let's see- less than 50 miles per year, it should be a museum piece.

It's fugly and probably needs a bunch of work due to "un-use".

LOTS of new bikes that would be much better than that for less $$.
