R 1200 GS Adventure
The rugged R 1200 GS Adventure has an insatiable appetite for exotic places. With an 8.7 gallon fuel tank,
cushy seat, extra wide foot pegs and ESA (Electronic Suspension Adjustment), it also has creature comforts
unheard of in a large enduro. On the road or off, handling is surprisingly agile. That’s why Ewan McGregor and
Charley Boorman rode it across Africa in “The Long Way Down.” Now it’s your turn to conquer continents and
satisfy dreams on the most technologically advanced enduro ever made.
