Pricey K75S in Seattle with no miles ??
« on: July 28, 2012, 02:12:33 PM »
What's up with this? http://seattle.craigslist.org/est/mcy/3167585496.html

I thought the later K75's had the 3-spoke wheels?

I find the 4,700 odometer hard to believe too.

The K75s did have 3 spoke wheels but that is not a K75s.

RG is correct.  The Ss came with the 3-spoke after they came out but they were an option
(more $$$) on other models.

It's easy to tell if it's only got 4,700 miles on it.

I was in touch with a guy a couple of years ago who had one with only 63 miles on it.  (The dealer hadn't sold it but kept it in a back room to steal parts from.)

I recently bought a '92 with 9K orig. miles, so it's possible. And yes, it's a "T" not an "S".

They came from the factory as Cs and then BMW NA converted them.  I believe the T stands for touring.
