Review
The 2019 BMW 1200 GS Adventure is built for serious exploration. Its 1170cc engine churns out 125 horsepower and 125 Nm of torque at 6500 RPM, providing ample power for any terrain. While it shares the standard GS's 200 km/h top speed, the Adventure model prioritizes long-distance comfort and capability. The taller 890mm seat height offers a commanding view, and the BMW Motorrad Telelever front suspension provides excellent stability. The massive 30-liter fuel tank ensures extended range, while the bike weighs in at 229.1 kg. The ergonomics are designed for long days in the saddle, with an upright riding position and ample space. The six-speed gearbox delivers smooth and precise shifts, and the double-disc front brakes with ABS offer confident stopping power. The Adventure model includes additional features like crash bars and handguards, adding to its ruggedness and durability. The 1200 GS Adventure is targeted at experienced riders who demand the ultimate adventure motorcycle. It's ideal for those planning long-distance trips and challenging off-road expeditions, offering unparalleled comfort, capability, and reliability. The powerful engine, rugged design, and advanced features make it a top choice for serious adventurers.
