Where are BMW R1200GS made?
Berlin, Germany
The BMW R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure are motorcycles manufactured in Berlin, Germany by BMW Motorrad, part of the BMW group. It is one of the BMW GS family of dual sport motorcycles. Both motorcycles have a 1,170 cc (71 cu in), two-cylinder boxer engine with four valves per cylinder.
Which is better a BMW 800gs or BMW 1200gs?
The BMW F800GS is a better motorcycle for me and the way I like to ride. The ability you gain off-road with the 800GS outweighs what you give up in road performance compared to the 1200GS. The 800GS gets better MPG’s but is also more expensive to maintain. Let me explain.
Is the BMW G650GS the same as the BMW F650?
If you like the old single-cylinder F650GS, the G650GS is much of the same, only newer! The G650GS’s single-cylinder is effectively a re-engineered version of the F650GS’s motor, however where the F650’s lump was built by Rotax in Austria, the G650’s was built by Lonchin in China.
How tall is the swingarm on a BMW G650GS?
Aimed at the new rider market, the G650GS came with three seat height options – 780mm (standard), 750mm (low) or 820mm (high) – and features wider bars than the F650GS to improve comfort levels. The swingarm is constructed from steel to save costs.
Is the BMW G650GS a good adventure bike?
As an introduction to adventure bikes, the G650GS is an ideal choice because it carries the same styling cues as its bigger brothers, but comes with the benefit of a lower insurance rating from the smaller, single-cylinder 652cc engine.
