What kind of insurance does a BMW R1150R have?

ABS was a £750 option and R1150Rs that are so-equipped are much more desirable secondhand, as are motorcycles with an official flyscreen, which really does make a difference. BMW luggage is excellent quality and very well designed.
Is the BMW R1150R air cooled or oil cooled?
The R1150R’s tried and tested BMW air/oil cooled motor isn’t exactly over-generous with either revs or power, but it is very torquey and flexible enough to make either genteel touring or cross-town commuting a pleasure. The gearbox is somewhat agricultural and lacking in positivity. You’ll need to keep an eye on oil consumption, too.

Are there any issues with a 2002 R1150RT?
The only issue for you might be the Integrated brake on the earlier models. They are aggressive at low speeds and due to the brake pedal working both front and rear they can contribute to dropping the bike while maneuvering at slow speeds unless you practice a bit. The 2003 and later are more progressive.
