I have three generations of BMWs in the garage. Also as a sidecar. Each of them is fun in its own way. . . By the way, spare parts even for the /5 are not really an issue. . .

Excellent documentary on the BMW GS! It’s rare to see moto content talk about how RELIABLE, versatile and successful BMW motorcycles are. The GS is a real world tested motorcycle and it won many endurance races?!? This certainly isn’t something that has been widely circulated. BMW and the GS are legends. I’m glad videos like this exist to acknowledge that fact❤️

I owned a Paris Dakar GS for 26 years and did 330,000 kms on it. Beemers rise at the back end when the throttle is opened - in effect the back wheel is being pushed onto the road - chain drive bikes do the opposite and squat when the throttle is opened. This is the main reason they are so good on dirt roads. I could open the throttle on a wet winding road, 2 up with luggage, lean the bike and open the throttle and the bike would power slide - hitting a white line helped too - both feet on the pegs - I'd overtake big bikes, sideways, leaned over - fantastic feeling. The best bike I've owned/ridden.

Quite mad to think that without the treaty of versailles we wouldn't have both BMW motorcycles and arguably, the Second World War.

@Teatimeted Жыл бұрын

@on spokes No, are you stupid? People who write one word replies to comments generally are. Here, let me educate you... The treaty of Versailles prevented BMW from continuing to manufacture aero engines, which is why they turned to auto engines and bikes. The treaty of versailles also arguably lead to the rise of Hilter, due to hyperinflation in Germany caused by the harsh terms of the reparations Germany had to pay following WWI, which were agreed at Versailles. You're welcome.

I have read quite a few comments to videos of the GS where people hate the GS for beeing to heavy, complicated, illogical and whatever else. But I have never ever in my live heard of anyone who owned a GS and thought it was a bad bike. There were a few, me included, who found out it is not the perfect bike for them. I own a F650GS Dakar and it is a great bike. But I realized that I don’t ride as much offroad as I had hoped when I bought it so I want something that is more road focused than the 650 Dakar but still capable of riding any fire road and with an engine that is smoother than a 650cc Single. So I will be picking up a 1200GS very soon.

@thenobleandmightybeaver4411 6 жыл бұрын

Ross Moore - I would dare say any adventure bike 1000cc and up is more a touring bike than adventure bike regardless of how it is configured or marketed. When the engines get too big they become untenable for true adventure/off road use. If you can't easily pick the bike up on your own after you lay it down how useful is it really as an adventure bike? I did a cross Canada adventure tour with my father, an uncle and 2 of my cousins a few years ago. We have all ridden bikes since childhood and have a lot of off road/enduro experience. I rode a KLR 650, for which I took a good bit of ribbing before we left as I bought the smallest/cheapest bike by far. One of my cousins came out in Africa Twin (1000cc) and the rest were on R1200GS's. The rest of the pack had had their bikes for some time, whereas I bout the KLR just for this trip and sold it straight after as I don't have much use for a road bike this size (I have a 350 dual sport and a 250 trail bike). What I can say at the end of the trip is that running a bike that was ~160 pounds lighter, with more of a dirt orientation made the trip more fun. I threw an aftermarket, cushy seat on the KLR, which made highway driving quite comfy. When we got into any loose, bumpy or really wet stuff (which was often) the KLR breezed through everything. The smaller, simpler bike also proved to require much less maintenance and fiddling that the BMWs. When we stopped in places with true trail riding terrain, I could strip off the panniers and do a proper trail ride down single track whereas my mates had to wait to take turns on my bike. My dad, who is a big dude, sold his 1200 when he got back and picked up a XR650 which is what he does all his adventure biking on now.

A boxer has that incredible low center of gravity and low speed control no other layout can match. Would be great if BMW introduced a R900GS shaft drive on 1 September 2020 to replace the current F800GS, which is in itself an amazing motorbike but does now require a 70Kw motor, a diet to shave off a few Kgs while retaining range and hauling ability to again dominate the market. Who knows...
