  • 2012 R1200GS Adventure for sale

    After 40 years of riding 2 wheels and the most recent 3 years of vacillating about continued riding, I've come to the unpleasant decision to hang up my helmet. Too many body parts increasingly complain, telling me it's time.
    And so, my 2012 BMW R1200GS Adventure is for sale. Triple black with aluminum BMW side cases, BMW tank bag, Sargent seat, loaded with extras with only 18,600 miles.
    Priced at $16,800, and I'd love to see a club member keep it in the club.
    Call for more details at 256-592-9696 or see photos in cycle trader.

    Sorry to hear you're 'hanging it up" John but I understand. Glad that you got to do one more great trip before you do.

      Thanks for the sympathetic words Bob. It's a difficult thing to voluntarily quit doing something you love, but I've always hoped to have the wisdom to quit before I was forced to (like an accident or being too stubborn to admit I should quit).

        Hi John, wow, got to say I am surprised to see your post but you are the one that must make the decision that is right for you and I know you haven't made this decision without a great deal of thought. We'll miss you and we wish you the best and hope you'll still come and hang out with us when you can!

          Thanks Vance, and yes it's a hard decision to make. I'll not be sitting on the couch, just using a different chariot!

            Wow John! I hate to see this. Maybe your trip was too long, and you just spent too much time in the saddle. It is definitely something you have to build up to. Please reconsider before you give it up for good. Maybe a smaller, lighter bike? None of my business, but that has never stopped me before! . Gail

              I take your words as being out of kindness, not meddling. Thanks for the thoughts.
