Right? This is one of my favourite motorcycle channels, not in the least because it shows the beauty of countries that people in the so-called "West" often know little about :) Because of DriveMag Riders I fully plan to ride there as well once I get my own GS :)
Very Nice Off Road Adventure. Love the City you finished your adventure. Sighisoara. My Native City. Was Born in Sighisoara. I ride a 1600GTL BMW my next bike will be a GSA 1200. Great Video.
Great video. You guys are very experienced. Seeing you struggle with the weight of the bike makes me realize that however good the BMW bike is, it is too big for me. But that is why I like watching your videos - they teach us about the bikes and perhaps we learn what will work for us. Thanks. ;-)
Bikes are only heavy when you drop them. On the ORS Wales school we had girls at 5’ 6” picking bikes up, older gents at 64 years of age picking them up. It is simply technique. Mind you when you run if fully laden off road into a ditch, it’s good to have your friends about. Bikes are very well balanced, take one out on a demo ride.
Another great vid guys, thank you for all the hard work. One thing of note, not a great idea to ride a GS off road alone, always travel in a group because if you drop it chances are you will never pick it up alone.
It seems like you wouldn't want to be doing these types of trips alone on these big ADV bikes when you inevitably go down. These are some heavy, heavy bikes. Of course you want company to share the adventure. Great video, and looks like a lot of fun was had. : )
The GS is quite tall, not sure if it would fit me. Can you show us a pic with your "feet on the ground", can you reach (give the riders height) so we can estimate if it is worth a trip to the dealership to ride one, thanks.
Or even the old F650 single-cylinder. In fact I think the old AT and F650 single would do much better than their newer counter parts. Less refined and less power, but also less weight. That said you don't learn anything by taking the easy route.
I'm interested in buying a '17, '18 (only) GS. What are the differences of a Rallye package?! Only stylish? More driving modez? Different shocks?? Great video!
dear sir to enjoy offroad and natural beauty you should visit mustang nepal along with manang. I am sure you won't be disappointed :) all the best for your crew love from Nepal
Foarte frumoase videos tale ca le faci sa descopere România noastră frumoasa și la alții. Eu sunt din Franța ai as vrea sa imi cumpar si eu un GS si Poate ca vin in țara intr-o vara :)
Hello. Why not? In fact, it would be easier to do the job with 170 kg wet than trying to ride a 240 kg Behemont. All it needs are some proper off-road tires and some handlebar raisers. Also, it's a pity that bmw doesn't offer spoked wheels.
The GS 1200 is an excellent running bike for 3 years, then the warranty expires and the GS begins to fall apart, at this point the GS becomes very very expensive to own!
SIR, I am 5 feet 6 inches, I am planning international motorcycle touring like crossing into many countries. Which one will you suggest me to buy, GSA1200 OR GSA 1250 OR SIMPLE GS VERSION PS: my reach is 70inches and i am not a beginner
very nice and funny trip. Let me suggest you to insert english legend for conversations in romanian. Will be fun to understand what your friends were talking about.
Hello. We added english subtitles for that conversation. You just have to push the CC button and activate them. It's located in the bottom-right corner of the video. Thank you for your appreciation.
Pai, daca e vorba de gama GS, poti merge pe un F650 mai vechi, care va rezista cu brio pe toate drumurile. Mai e si F700, dar e mai stradal. Altfel, orice motocicleta de clasa medie, sa n-aiba mult peste 200 de kg :) Cu abs. Decuplabil, daca vrei si enduro.
BMW R1200 GS is cool bikes, but waaay too heavy for real offroad. The all new BMW F 850 GS is much more true offroad inspired.. Try it, review it in 2018.
The 1200 GS, and now the newer 1250 GS, are excellent off-roaders, but need to be used within a group of three or more, in case you need to pull one out of a tricky situation, as here. If you 'drop' one of these on flat ground, they don't go over further than the boxer engine's crash bars allow, about 45 degrees!
excelente video , todo lo q tenga q ver con las dos ruedas me gusta de echo hago viajes de muchos km en carretera pero JAMAS pondría mi moto a maltratarla por lugares como esos , respeto mucho esos gustos pero sufro de ver las motos caerce y ser maltratadas por los lugares q recorren de echo tengo amigos con esos gustos , saludos
Shoutout to the guy with the F800, probably having a MUCH easier time than the dudes on the 1200s
The terrain is simple,what makes it difficult is the bike,too heavy.. . Will awesome adventure,two thumbs up for u guys.
No. They're standing up on perfectly smooth tracks and sit-down-waddling through water courses and up inclines...
i have seen a lot of these guys doing bike vlogs on you tube , lucky buggers , what a life , go ahead have a fantastic time.....
Yes...thats it. This is real Off Road. Sometimes challenging and mostly having fun
One of the best channels! Greetings from Colombia!
Thanks. Such an inspiring country. Hope to get there soon!
Awesome scenery, great to see the bikes being used off road!
Right? This is one of my favourite motorcycle channels, not in the least because it shows the beauty of countries that people in the so-called "West" often know little about :)
Because of DriveMag Riders I fully plan to ride there as well once I get my own GS :)
i think this bikes CAN take MORE, it's a light off-road i think. Well, nature is beaty and awesome!
Purpose fullfilled
Very Nice Off Road Adventure. Love the City you finished your adventure. Sighisoara. My Native City. Was Born in Sighisoara. I ride a 1600GTL BMW my next bike will be a GSA 1200. Great Video.
Than you! Multumim!

Great bmw promo.jamaha serow.will do it better

with whose 35 seconds in the beginning you finally convinced me i don't need a gs1200
22,000 kilometres so far in Thailand and Laos, alone, in much tougher terain than this, still on the original set of road tyres, 2018 CB150R!
Fuck the bike when you need 3 people to pick it up,btw great video..
things one doesn´t need, are the most fun
Whixh motorcycle Would be the best?
Michael BMW light enduro, swm rs300 you can buy 3-4 for a price gs 1250
Another great vid guys, thank you for all the hard work.
One thing of note, not a great idea to ride a GS off road alone, always travel in a group because if you drop it chances are you will never pick it up alone.
Good point. :)
Riding those bikes in that terrain with those boots??? Those guys are braver than me! Well done!
Great guys, you always bring fun and enthusiasm to all your videos. Good to see people out exploring on the big bikes!
Looks like you forgot to select rain mode
Good vid
It seems like you wouldn't want to be doing these types of trips alone on these big ADV bikes when you inevitably go down. These are some heavy, heavy bikes. Of course you want company to share the adventure. Great video, and looks like a lot of fun was had. : )
Damn heavy laden down with silver crosses, garlic and stakes I’d imagine?
nice trip. could you share us the route? thanks
foarte frumoase locuri in transilvania ! me-as dori si eu sa o vizitez !
passion and friends. ride safe on every road bro
Great video guys! I love the drone shots, and nice editing. Beautiful country. Looks like you had a great trip. Well done.
Não entendi nada que ele falou, mas o video foi ótimo, realmente é um sonho ter uma BMW e presenciar uma aventura.
Ma bucur ca avem asa romani❤❤❤🏍
Romania is my favourite place on earth to ride a motorbike!
Ah yes, here in romania even the paved roads can be categorized as off road
Same thing can be said about India.
Beautiful country👍
What is the grace of crossing the river on horseback ?? :)
great video work, nice area, seems a lot of team fun - continue your work! Kind Regards from Bavaria!
Kind regards from Romania. Can't wait to be back at Garmisch!
Romania looks amazing! 👍
The GS is quite tall, not sure if it would fit me. Can you show us a pic with your "feet on the ground", can you reach (give the riders height) so we can estimate if it is worth a trip to the dealership to ride one, thanks.
Are you guys even trying to not drop the bike ?
I think new Africa Twin would be a king in this area :D
Lukasz Bat , or my 990R adveture...
Or even the old F650 single-cylinder. In fact I think the old AT and F650 single would do much better than their newer counter parts. Less refined and less power, but also less weight. That said you don't learn anything by taking the easy route.
rc fan is it comfortable in 2 person?
I'm interested in buying a '17, '18 (only) GS. What are the differences of a Rallye package?! Only stylish? More driving modez? Different shocks?? Great video!
witch country this channel is from?
I really love your work
Great tour!I was choosing the tires for my gs to use in enduro conditions,and now i will buy anakee wild for sure)
Great video! Big fan!!
Very nice tour!!! Great Video!!! Please upload roadbooks of your Romania tours on your Homepage :)
Did you meet Mr. Vlad Dracul ?
Awesome off road riding!!
dear sir to enjoy offroad and natural beauty you should visit mustang nepal along with manang. I am sure you won't be disappointed :)
all the best for your crew
love from Nepal
Nice video
I love my Gs 🔝
Foarte frumoase videos tale ca le faci sa descopere România noastră frumoasa și la alții. Eu sunt din Franța ai as vrea sa imi cumpar si eu un GS si Poate ca vin in țara intr-o vara :)
Fantastic place! Heavy bikes...
superb
Minutul 11:27 - Ce GS motorcycle (F650, F800, R1200)?!
Dincolo de glumă, FELICITĂRI!
:)) Asa ziceam si noi.
hi there, great vid! Do you think the new BMW G310 GS can handle this Transylvania tour? With some modifications?
Hello. Why not? In fact, it would be easier to do the job with 170 kg wet than trying to ride a 240 kg Behemont. All it needs are some proper off-road tires and some handlebar raisers. Also, it's a pity that bmw doesn't offer spoked wheels.
Still thinking of if I should trade my s1000xr for a gs1250 .
Great footage & story telling! Thx for sharing your adventure👍🏻
Thanks for your appreciation.
chapeaux les Biker RESPECT pour vous
great vid, those bmws look so heavy
But they would feel so light when you ride it
Bmw is the bap of adventure bikes
Ovo je super
Awesome, i wanna do something like this one day!!!
Amazing video, Great Guys!
He used to keep it real back in 2017! What happened?
The GS 1200 is an excellent running bike for 3 years, then the warranty expires and the GS begins to fall apart, at this point the GS becomes very very expensive to own!
They(bmw) couldnt make a proper final drive, to just not fail. All other brands, no problem, but not bmw.
Great bikes though, when they work.
Hi. I wanted to know what does GS mean in these motorcycles? What is the differece to the others?
SIR,
I am 5 feet 6 inches, I am planning international motorcycle touring like crossing into many countries.
Which one will you suggest me to buy, GSA1200 OR GSA 1250 OR SIMPLE GS VERSION
PS: my reach is 70inches and i am not a beginner
wauuu.. tare de tot...spuneti-mi va rog cu o yamaha wr250r as face fata la un tur de genu asta?(pe asa ceva am pus eu ochii)ms
Desigur. De fapt, cu o yamaha wr250r ai zbura pe langa noi :) Doar sa ai grija la autonomie. Nu prea sunt bezinarii prin padure.
Que choo curti a bmw e uma paisagem tao linha muito bom um passeio com os amigos parabéns ( Adriano itapipoca ceará brasil)
which is better aluminium panniers or textile panniers?
GS Off-road? katastrofa !! :-)
Igor55sk hehe czemu
very nice and funny trip. Let me suggest you to insert english legend for conversations in romanian. Will be fun to understand what your friends were talking about.

Foarte tare...Sa iti si permiti un GS si faci treaba...Pt incepatori ce motor recomandati ?
Pai, daca e vorba de gama GS, poti merge pe un F650 mai vechi, care va rezista cu brio pe toate drumurile. Mai e si F700, dar e mai stradal. Altfel, orice motocicleta de clasa medie, sa n-aiba mult peste 200 de kg :) Cu abs. Decuplabil, daca vrei si enduro.
Great video and nice channel! Congratulations!
Cabras Sobre Ruedas I
Thats some amazing terrain and great video here man.. would love to do this sometime :-) Greetings from India
That looks like some awesome riding, good times offroad
Same route, two bikes, new AT adventure sports vs GS you had that day? Which one would you choose and why? :D
very very nice and awesome video man!!!
Nice adventure! you guys rock! Blessings from Texas.
nice adventure dude
Looks wonderful but why do you sit down so much? I can’t handle the bike sitting. Great adventure though!!!
Great Video guys! What is the name of the song at the beginning of the video and by which artist? Thanks!!
Great Video :) is it possible to get the route?
Salut! Cum se comporta Michelin Anakee Wild pe strada? E diferenta foarte mare intre set-ul asta si un set de strada? Merci!
best naked 1200 ever for on and off road
Perfekt video
tried shazaming 2 of the songs used in this vid and cant find anything!! Great choice of music, compliments the visual very nicely indeed..

Nice video. Congrats for the riding. :)
in love with that motor
Thank you
Which is better one to buy GS or GSA?
THIS IS SO AWESOME
Das Video zeigt mehr als deutlich, dass BMW GS nur am Stammtisch geländetauglich sind.
Beautiful
Wheres Dave?
Good video thank you
Hello! Does anyone know the advantage of wearing goggles instead of the visor of the helmet ??
BMW R1200 GS is cool bikes, but waaay too heavy for real offroad.

Se nota que es primera vez que andan en moto.
Great 👍
in this minute i was back from romania from Sibiu on my 19 yo BMW 850GS, could You publish road track?
Wouldn't this be much more fun on a Honda 300l, boys?
No
I want to do something like this so badly!!!
Smightification I
is GS1200 not to heavy for terrain?
U guys are struggling with the bike in just simple technical areas I wonder how will someone do solo with this
what brand of crash bar and guard is that
The horses made the river crossing look easy
excelente video , todo lo q tenga q ver con las dos ruedas me gusta de echo hago viajes de muchos km en carretera pero JAMAS pondría mi moto a maltratarla por lugares como esos , respeto mucho esos gustos pero sufro de ver las motos caerce y ser maltratadas por los lugares q recorren de echo tengo amigos con esos gustos , saludos
Аж завидую. Супер.
Great video,thks.
Very nice vid, again! Great scenery! Next year I will go there!
Very nice
