- Welcome to my review of the timeless BMW R1100GS, a 26-year-old adventure bike that's still going strong! In this video, I share my journey from riding sport bikes and Harleys to discovering the joys of off-roading with the GS. I delve into why I chose this bike, its impressively workable features like the 80hp boxer engine, and how it handles both on and off-road. I'll take you through my experiences riding through European mountain passes and tackling the Trans Euro Trails. Learn about the bike's strengths, such as its comfort on long journeys and its ability to handle rugged terrain, as well as some minor issues like braking and shifting that come with its age. Don't miss out on this comprehensive review that highlights why the BMW R1100GS is still a top choice for adventure seekers. Subscribe to follow my upcoming off-road and on-road adventures!

Great to see you are having fun with it! Got a 97' last year and already put it through the tet in croatia,hungary and poland. Great gravel machine but really struggled with deeper sand in poland.
After my recent trip I will be downgrading to a lighter bike for solo travel though, got into some situations where the gs was just too heavy to get out alone.
How was the TET Croatia? And what bike will you get after?
Jai une GS de 1998, cest la moto la plus attachante que jai eu, il me tarde de partir avec pour une ballade de plusieurs jours, merci pour cette vidéo !
Since when do you have the bike? I hope you can enjoy many more long trips!
I feel you man! Got my 1994 R11000 GS at the end of last year. Started with motorcycling after a almost 20 year break from it. I love everything about the GS, also that is has some "charakter" - especially while shifting. :D
The GS (and other adventure bikes) is all about freedom.
Go where you want to go and dont know where the road ends!

We have a saying in Greece....:at the end we all get a GS "
Greeks were always known for their great thinkers, seems you are right again with bikes 😜
@@two-wheel-tales i have the 94 model,after many years without a motorcycle.....2 thing's to notice: first is the hall sensor, replace it with a water proof one (about 120 e)and second the bearing's on the Shaft (about 200 e) and you re done!
I hope i wrote everything correctly 😂
It is International, in Poland we will have simillar end ;)
It was nice, thx for the video
Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
Hey everyone! Thank you for watching, let me know what you think about the bike 😄
Куда делось ветровое стекло?
У меня тоже 1100gs 😊 отличный мотоцикл для путешествий, можно спокойно 1500 километров в день ездить
Unfortunately I dropped my bike and the screen broke. I recently installed a new one. Thanks for watching and ride safe.
Has your bike got the standard silencer ?
Yes it's bone stock!
Specs all say the fuel tank is 25 litres but mine seems to be 18 .
That's strange, how did you figure out you only have 18 litres?
Hey! What's your exact height man?
Hey man! I’m 173cm
@@two-wheel-tales oh great! I'm looking to buy a 1100 GS and I was worried about the seat height. Please keep the vids coming there are not many vids on the 1100 on youtube. Maybe share some servicing and maintanance videos of her!
@@dimitriskatsoulis4986I have a GS1100 and am 6ft tall , the seat height is surprisingly low .
