This is a BMW R1200RT-P (Police) Authority package model originally owned and maintained by the Santa Barbara PD. It has been overhauled for solo (single seat) touring use while retaining the distinctive look and useful features. This bike comes fully loaded and tricked out for long cross-country touring including TONS of custom work, and there is no other like it. It makes a perfect daily or commuter in any weather. This bike was kept garaged and maintained in California its whole life.
It is the most comfortable and smooth touring bike you'll ever ride, and handles better than anything half its weight has any right to. Iron butt certified. Do you want to tour the country, but don't have a lot of money? This bike is perfect for you. Fits all the camping gear you could ever need, sips gas, and will ride confidently all day and night in any weather.

The full 12k mile service was just completed at the time of initial posting, including valve adjustment, gearbox, and final drive, new brake pads and fluids, greased splines, etc. Some time has passed since so it could use a fluid change but it's barely seen any miles in that time so it's not urgent. I'll probably have that taken care of before it sells. Everything is ship-shape and ready to take you wherever you want to go. This bike was my pet project and a daily for many years, always pampered and cared for. No expense spared. Comes with lots of extra parts and tools to continue caring for it for a long time. These motors will run forever if you take care of them. Will probably outlast the world's oil supply at this rate. 40+ mpg and pulls strong.
Final Drive, fuel pump regulator, wheel bearings, fuel level sensor, and ignition coils have all been replaced in last 20k miles. New units are broken in and serviced. Clutch is about 50k miles old but still good, was replaced by dealership I bought it from. Tires are Pilot Road 6 GTs and have about 3k miles on them.
Comes with a spare GS final drive unit (newer part with steeper gear ratio), fuel pump regulator bypass plug, 2x spare fuel strips (1x new/refurbished, 1x old/failed that could be repaired) billet hex head multitool, throttle body balancer, original seat, a dozen or so maintenance nut/washer/gasket kits, service manual, software tools, spare fuel pump, spare steering head bearings and ball joint, and a buttload of documentation and service records.
Would love to keep this bike forever, but might need to move soon and won't have space to keep it garaged.
Come check it out. Test rides welcome (with proof of M1 and insurance). This bike is ready for someone new to fall in love with it.
