BMW R1200GS ADVENTURE final additions: PUIG windscreen and DoubleTake folding mirrors
Hi, everyone
In this video I will put the final touches ion the BMW R1200GS Adventure build.
I will add the Puig Racing Windscreen for BMW R1200GS/Adv and the Double Take folding mirrors.
The windscreen is similar with the Rally windscreen from BMW, but it flows air differently, drawing more air towards the rider and only costs half the price
The Double Take folding mirrors are a fantastic addition, different compared to OEM and are, virtually, indestructible.
Thanks for watching

BMW R1200GS Adventure BEST CYLINDER PROTECTION: Touratech and RICOCHET Off-road
มุมมอง 6K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Hi, everyone! After much research and many TH-cam reviews I concluded that the best protection for my BMW R1200GS / Adventure cylinders is a combination of strenght (Touratech reinforcement for BMW factory crash bars) and style/durability (Ricochet off-road guards). I really think this is the best combination on the market today to protect my BMW's boxer engine. Thanks for watching!

    Touratech needs to update this one. The instructions are terrible and do not even show what to do with the zip ties. My 3rd grade daughter could do a better job illustrating where they should be placed.

      No worries, I struggled with that too:)). Didn't use them, and 20k km later, the guards are still there. It seems that the Germans believe everyone is tech savvy or professionals. Maybe they should hire an average Joe, like me, to try to figure this out. Ikea probably does it...

    so many thanks. I had been looking for this kind of video all day as I have the 719 reservoirs on my GSA and thought they would be a challenge. I'll see when I do all you did tomorrow. I have a supplementary question. I see you have a mount for your GoPro remote. Can you provide details please? I managed to lose mine on a recent tour and have been thinking of how to attach a new one safely.

    • @gtmoto6265
      @gtmoto6265 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I use the GoPro pole mount, it seems to be quite strong... careful with the placement, though, a place with lots of vibrations increase the chances of loosing the remote. I found the handlebar to be quite appropriate placement...

    • @gtmoto6265
      @gtmoto6265 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I use it only from late spring up to early fall, temperatures from 15-35 Celsius. At low speed it is really great, especially in the cities. At highway speeds (anything more than 100 kph/65 mph), there's a lot of buffeting, I guess it does not work great with the motorcycle's aerodynamics. If you are a bit taller, you will probably get cleaner air and you should be fine, but I am only 177 cm, and have a low seat on lowest position, thanks to my extra short legs:)

    Why do you do 2 things at same time? You can install first the Touratech brace. Tighten everything. Then as a second video(step), install the Richochet without loosening the brace and guards. I appreciate your efforts but it can lead to a small confusion. Many thanks.

      @gtmoto6265 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for watching. There is a little interference with the windscreen knob, it has to be in a certain position to avoid interference with the aluminum backbone of the barkbusters. Once the knob is in the correct position, no interference, whatsoever. It seems they came up with a better version for R1250GSA. Thanks for watching!
