The BMW R 1150 GS ADVENTURE was presented on 13.09.01 at the
IAA in Frankfurt with BMW Motorrad in the BMW Group pavilion.
The bike is previsted on the market in the spring 2002.
The difference vs. the R1150GS are:
- suspension travel 20mm longer;
- adjustable White Power rear shock;
- 30 liters tank;
- 1 part seat;
- higher (13cm) and wider (12cm) windshield;
- hand protections as eom;
- alu bashplate;
- new crashbar;
- aux. fog lights;
- protection grid for the front and fog lights;
- supplementary 12v socket;
- dark blue (black?!?) anodised rims;
- knobbies tires (Continental);
- rack;
- alu bags (39 liters right, 36 left and 30 topcase), top of the
side casse at seat level for bigger loading area;
- dark blue (black?!?) magnesium cylinder cover;
- special engine chip (as accessory) for normal fuel (91 ROZ) use;
- gearbox (6th normal, no more overdrive), shorter 1th available as optional;
- front brake EVO;
- ABS as optional (surely depending on country) with ability to turn
it off for off-road usage;
- new colors... and the BumbleBee is back!
- Attention, it seems that some of these equipments will be available as accessories and
not as standart equipment of the GS Adventure. Maybe related to the market (country).
