Why I Chose the BMW R1100GS: The Ultimate Adventure Companion

[@wobs5]

Got one in 1994 when they first came out and I thought it was a revelation. Loved it so much I got an 1150GS when it came out and have still got her.

I own one by myself. I simply love the old lady. :)

I also got one a couple of months ago. A 1999 red model, very well kept with 75000kms, but yours looks even cleaner :)
The more I ride it, the more I like it. The riding position is excellent. The only thing I would like to upgrade is getting the handlebar slightly back just a little bit and a higher adjustable windscreen. Other than that, I think it´s perfect.
I also realy like the look of it. The analog rev and speedometer is nice.
It feels so nice to drive, so stable. Love the engine, it puls so nicely. More than enough for my kind of riding.
Good luck with your new bike and ride safe!

Great to hear! I think the analog meters really add to the timeless vibe of the bike. Enjoy the bike and ride safe ❤️

Nice bike! 👌

I had one a few years ago but couldn't get on with it.Got rid of it and a few bikes later I now have a R1100R which I really quite like.No logic to this choice at all.

Motorcycles don’t have to be logical, I’m happy to hear that you like the r1100r! Ride safe
