Picture and video File for this bike. photos.app.goo.gl/FWUmSiaE1tjq4RGR8
Here is the skinny on my fully updated and maintained 99 Canyon Red LT with under 33k on it!
When I bought this LT, I decided to pour everything I have ever learned into this one and have curated and used every part to make this particular LT a showroom example of an LT.
All of the clear plastic parts are as perfect as I could find with there being no yellowing or fading. Let me assure you, this is not easy to do! I have guardedly kept it under cover except on the days it gets used to keep them that way!
I pulled the trans to inspect the clutch just because I could and replaced the disc and O-ring on the clutch carrier to prevent future leaks. I am using 20-50 synthetic in the engine since it does not leak, nor should it!
I am selling it with the working Front and Rear recording camera system unless you really don't want it. It was a $400 system
The Denali DM lights in the front are hands down the best you can get in my opinion and are crazy bright. That set is a small fortune and they come on with the key.
Of course, it has new springs, HID headlight and brake lines and everything functions as it should.
There is no radio or cd player. That is the first thing I junk in any LT I own since they are garbage to begin with and just add unnecessary weight.
Tires are almost brand new with around 1k on them Shinko 999HD Long Haul Rear, Continental Road Attack4 front. The best combo I have used yet on an LT!
I can sell it with the Garmin XT mount but not the GPS unit. I will sell it with the "One Off" Custom fabricated, heavy duty aluminum mounting shelf that goes over the radio. I have transferred this to quite a few LT's and it has a cut out for the phone mount so the glove box opens all of the way. The Phone mount itself will stay with me however as it fits my phone and will go on my next bike.
You can see in the pics that it has a dual port USB connector.
All of the dash lights have been upgraded to white LED's
The seats will be the heated originals and I will include the backrest.
I will provide you with the service records and everything has been done for this year including the brake and clutch flushes.
As to the engine, I have performed a never before seen on the internet, throttle body balance. This has made a significant difference at startup and idle. BMW intentionally made the throttle bodies the type that cannot be balanced but I figured out how to do it.
It has a John Gemi chip in it and truly runs like a top!
I honestly cannot think of one thing on this bike that I have not yet done or would need to do!
Lastly, there is a mark on the right side fairing in the paint from a trailering mishap. I was going to put some carbon fiber decal over it but just did not get around to it yet.
There is a scratch in the windshield but this does not interfere with its rideability. I did not want to replace it as I love the OEM ws better than the aftermarkets.
You will see a lot of duplicate pics in the album as I tried to get pics in the sunlight as well as the shade. There are also two vids. One is a talking feature set and the other is a short 1 min vid for facebook. Contact me fast as this bike is sure to go quick!

I put 50,000 miles on that bike in a little over five years. Other than changing the oil and tires, the bike was absolutely trouble free. Great bike! Wish I kept it.

The grey 2000 that is featured in many of the videos and is featured on my torque spec poster. That one has all of the updates too but has more miles. Still a great bike though! He is not asking much for it and is very easy to deal with. I also have another friend that is selling a blue 02 if you are interested in that one.

I'm not sure how to add fluid yet and if I need to take off the whole cylinder to add fluid. I noticed the first time I tried to use it, it dripped some oil. I just purchased the bike so I'm thinking it was sitting for a while and a lot of the fluid can have dripped out? If so, does this mean I just need to replace the seals without the o-rings?

    How did you get rid of the pimples in the chrome work. Everything looks amazing.

    Hey Kirk, good to see you're still making videos. You were an amazing resource back when I had my 2000 KLT. As soon as I saw your clutch replacement series I put it up for sale though. Switched over to an FJR1300. So much easier to work on. Sometimes I miss my big blue couch though.

    Nice video Kirk. I'm currently doing the clutch in my 05 and I wish I could work as fast as you. I see you have a new watch as well. I'm an OMEGA guy as well.

      I truly LOVE my watch! So classic and functional! Thanks for noticing!

      @@kirksmotorrad Omega are great watches. The only ones I own that actually go up in value. I have a couple of Speedmasters. I'm Wazza off the K1200 LT forum.

    What did you find with the front shock?

    • @kirksmotorrad
      @kirksmotorrad Před 12 dny

      An excellent question! The shock was in great shape. That oil was from the blown out steering damper throwing oil at speed back onto it. I swapped both the shock and the spring though to freshen it up!
