2011 BMW R 1200 GS Adventure

BMW R1200GS Adventure 


BMW R1200GS Adventure | Nothing on earth comes between this bike and its destination. It is built without compromise to handle everything nature has to throw at it, be it on road or off. A first glance is enough to tell you this – and a first ride is enough to confirm it. The BMW R 1200 GS Adventure will excite you with its effortless throttle response and superb traction, not to mention the added comfort and versatility of such features as the optional Enduro ESA (Electronic Suspension Adjustment). This means that the chassis can be set up for the current riding conditions and load at the touch of a button, with adjustable damper settings and suspension height on both wheels. As a result, the suspension has the travel to prevent bottoming out on rough ground, but still delivers optimum roadholding in everyday use. In short, it’s up for any challenge. 2011 BMW R 1200 GS Adventure



Being Unstoppable means being one of a kind. The short first gear option is exclusive to the R 1200 GS Adventure, and reduces the already-low creep speed by a further 10 per cent, something which is particularly useful over broken ground in tight spaces. Because control is every bit as important as power – especially in the sort of terrain that other bikes can’t even reach in the first place. Other optional extras include ASC (Automatic Stability Control) and TPC (Tyre Pressure Control). 2011 BMW R 1200 GS Adventure

It’s your planet. Ride it.
True two-wheeled adventurers know that when it comes to epic riding that crosses continents, there’s only one choice: the unstoppable, all-conquering R 1200 GS Adventure. A 5% increase in horsepower kicks its engine output to 105 HP. Combined with a taller windshield, adjustable seat, extra wide foot pegs, optional ABS and an 8.7 gallon fuel tank, even the longest days in the saddle are a breeze. Add Enduro ESA (Electronic Suspension Adjustment) and you can customize both front and rear suspension settings to fit off-road or on-road riding conditions with the flick of a switch.
