presentation of the R 1150 GS ADVENTURE 2002

you like the R 1150 GS but you're hesitant - not enough of an adventurer... No problem. BM has thought of those nostalgic for the Dakar Replica versions of its trails, and has concocted this Adventure for us. What about this bike?
Basically, a GS that has had its suspension upgraded, lost the seat height adjustment, shortened its gearbox (1st gear even shorter as an option), fitted with an engine management system that allows lower octane fuels to be used, and a fine array of options for venturing as far as Vladivostok.

it can be fitted with a 30 L fuel tank, very adventurous aluminium suitcases and top-case, GPS, sturdy cylinder guards, etc... Spoked rims are fitted with mixed-profile tires. While they're great for cruising on trails, don't expect too much from them on asphalt roads. If you only want to ride on asphalt, you'll have to opt for a different type of tire, and enjoy the GS's superb comfort. The engine is available and smooth, and the machine holds the road well. Watch out for the weight, though. Consequently, it doesn't invite the bike into town. And for those of you who like to take the low road, proceed with caution and care - a 300 kg trail bike can't be handled and, above all, it can't be caught like a single-track trail bike.

Spanish Freespirit Model 2003
Hello, I've just completed the purchase of this bike, aesthetically it's love at first sight! I've only tested it for 20 km, I like it a lot, easy to handle, good inclination and perfect brakes, after having it at home and being out on the road, I'll be able to tell you my experience! Rating : 5/5

Modèle 2003
French Hitman 05 Model 2005
After several Japanese KAWA Goldwing and of course my good old 1100 gs from 1995 more than 13 years together without any trouble I wanted to change for a more recent GS but I was too afraid of all the electronics on board so I fell for the 1150 GS adventure and I must say that I am not disappointed motorcycle really surprising maneuverability, autonomy, agile on small mountain road I live in Briançon. Despite its weight and my short stature (1.70 m), I had no problem with the suspension and low seat height. It's incredible, I find it easier to handle than the 1100 GS. I don't regret my choice, I'm delighted Rating : 5/5

French chris Model 2005
An endearing and extremely reliable motorcycle, unlike the 1200 cc models that have replaced it. 0 mechanical breakdowns since I bought it! definitely a collector's item! Rating : 5/5
Que du bonheur !
French Grosquick92 Model 2005
Mine has just passed the 200,000 km mark, it's still as good as new and despite its main drawback, being overweight, it's still a MUST-have that I wouldn't change for anything in the world. Rating : 5/5
French Scapadu Model 2005
After a 1200 Goldwing (140000km of pleasure), I had 2 GS and now an R1150GSAdventure. What can I say? Yes, it's high, it's heavy, but as soon as my feet are on the pedals, it's a bike. It absorbs all the bumps, and no matter what the road conditions, the comfort remains impeccable. And then, if there's a path, I keep going for fear of damaging anything. The foot. Rating : 5/5
French Alexbiker Model 2005
Hi there
Well, I've got an adventure bike, and I'm crazy about it. This bike goes like a charm, I handle it like a bike even in town (I come from a goldwing 1500), it holds the road, has peche (K&N filter, Viré catalitique and pot Laser) and moreover does not consume more than 6 liters. For me, it's a machine I wouldn't want to part with. I love it.
