"The bikers' rockstar of dakar rally

1200 riding offroad is suicidal &over engineering computing console?l ..what are they thinking? Ride it to space oblivion? The old adventure Gs spirit is gone....saddd

GS legend become an Obese over rated water buffalo gs...the ol adventure legend is gone.. now jz over rated obese bike..😂😂

It didn’t get better ! Quite the opposite…The old Airheads are far superior in any aspects..!

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. . .

5:15 No mention of the leading link forks fitted for many years.

Such a pity BMW didn’t continue to develop this…if they’d put WP suspension on it the HP2 would have been very successful

Get the dakar back to Africa

Did he jumped off the bike before coming to a stop. I don't see how else he could ride such tall bikes at 5'3"

I am very proud of mine R1150GS. The last iron made GS without electronic frills. A real truck on two wheels.

Does the GS80 share the same crank case as the GS1000? Can you fit the 1000 cylinders on the 80?

I may own 2014 Honda CB500X, but I acknowledge that BWM is the benchmark to which all adventure bikes are judged. Eat your heart out KTM and Harley-Davidson!!! 🏍🇨🇦

Too bad BMW has turned these into status symbol mall/Starbucks crawlers for Yuppies and DINKS that are as fragile as porcelain tea cups.

Great videos, really enjoy them! What gastank did you mount, is that HPN?

The video is a gift for us the BMW's lovers, riders and followers

My ‘05 still runs like a clock!

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❤️

amazing video lots of history bmw bikes are amazing

No mention of Elspeth Beard?

I have a 92 bumblebee in I'm a proud little peacock, it is so beautiful and purrs like a pussycat

😍

Everyone remembers seeing the beauty single swingarm

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.

Thanks for sharing. Love watching the classics like this one

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

Aye bro don't steal the clips from other channel and merge them and post it here , all those views and credits could have gone to the filmmaker who struggled to get all these clips . I'm informing him and will ask him to report you for copyright

I had the 1150Gs and now have the 1100Gs and the 1100 is better built in my opinion.

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.

The best was the R80GS i bought in 1984. Super light and simple and reliable. Sadly for me the latest GS looks like a Tiger tank. Too big too complicated

My 1150 gs is turning 21 years old with 150 000 km. Clutch and gear box renewed (getrag didn't do great at that time... ) . Some bearings. But not much. Great bike

Love this

I've brought a Urban GS in honour of the history, I want to expand my horizons and its based on the R80 G/S that Helge rode around the world on. I want to do the same but 1 month trip somewhere new every year to get started

Jetzt leider zu schwer und groß mit Hubraum wie ein Auto 😓

I love this story

why around the world trips always skipped Indonesia?

Le Vrai Dakar des burnés... V

Too bad that after one good bike like r80GS model, BMW cant make new GS for this kind of riding. It's like promoting standard family SUV by showing rallyheavy duty parts that are not part of actual car.

...all these years and I'm just finding this - amazing riding on a very heavy BMW Boxer Enduro bike really - really amazing effort - I love my R1200GSA and have had it tough off-road but nothing this tough! Thanks for sharing this!

I'll stick to my Versys 650, tyvm. :P It may not have on-the-fly adjustable suspension or 3 levels of traction control or manual ABS control or cruise control or whatever else, but that's a lot of things that can go wrong that I don't have to worry about. :D

Picking up a new R1200GS tomorrow ~ I'm super excited.. Great video, thank you

I have a 1989 bmw r100 and will never part with it.

Best selling BMW...R69S

OK BMW now give us an S1000GS

Мой R1100GS 1993 - 180 000km , super bike!)) Minsk,

what about Honda Transalp?

such great history! it's a shame bmw has dropped the bar in reliability in recent years....

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...
