Great sounding bike. Love the R1200C, despite the tough reviews. Beautiful country too--though on US roads, you'd only have to shift about 5% as much as you did here. Lots of traffic!!
The US does not have mountain passess as steep and certainly Italy is a LOT more crowded that the US! Imagine crowding 60 million people in New England - then add the Alps!
Well, that pass was in operation centuries before columbus discovered the west passage to India. It is old Europe (good or bad is in the eye of the beholder). Some years ago the south ramp of that pass wasn't paved. Much less traffic back then... Cruising on curvy highways is for boys. Riding the tiny passes of the alps is for men and I guess Himalaya or South American passes is for experts
Hey Michele, it's the original exhaust. A little modified, here are some informations (unfortunaltely in german): www.r1200c.de/members/huelsen/huelsen.htm
Northern Italy, in the Alps; Gavia is a harrowing pass between Bormio (of Stelvio Pass fame) and Ponte di Legno. Very few know of the gavia Pass and even fewer actually dare ride it - so this is a relatively rare clip. Well done.
No. It was most likely the peg. On the R1200C the peg touches first and if you continue leaning further the peg folds up and pushes your foot up giving you ample warning that you're on your way to shave you cylinder head.
Hi nice ride, at 06:03 the guy in front almost hit the guard rail with the panniers.....beside that excelent ride...ride safe
Yes, it was really close for him.
Ui, das war aber knapp für die GS bei 6:00 :D
Schönes Video!

Nice video,I have a BMW R1200C Avantgarde myself.Its a great bike.I know where my next roadtrip is going in spring of 2017👌👍✌😎
Звук как на урале, даже кпп, здорово!!!
Ganz schön sportlich...auf das dir nie die Straße ausgeht.
WoW! Beautiful video.. How is it so clear and fluent? High fps?
if there were an accident how close is the nearest hospital?
How many head on crashes happen on that road?
I've had a good camera and the video was made in 1080p60fps, but the youtube quality (even in HD) is not as good as the original file.
Awesome!!
Nice video, where is this road? Regards from Brazil
italy
Добрый день. Подскажите вы из какого региона ?
This was filmed in Italy.
Класс!
You are the first number!
Hey! Nice videos! I just bought this same bike and I was wondering, which exhaust are you mounting??
Thanks

Omg where was this filmed?
You can find a link in the comments. It's in Italy.
Northern Italy, in the Alps; Gavia is a harrowing pass between Bormio (of Stelvio Pass fame) and Ponte di Legno.

Well done.
Clock. Clock. Clock....ma è così rumoroso il cambio BMW?
Molto bello lo Stile della 1200C
Sì, è normale.
No è lui che non sa cabina le marce🤦
Was it a blow by cylinder at 10:37?
No. It was most likely the peg. On the R1200C the peg touches first and if you continue leaning further the peg folds up and pushes your foot up giving you ample warning that you're on your way to shave you cylinder head.

Hast du den Navi befestigt?
Ich habe damals einen Halter bei Polo oder Louis gekauft, an den ich die Garmin Navihalterung anschrauben konnte.
@@xscout77 super Lösung auf jeden Fall. Schaut original aus.
This noise is normal.
that's the boxer sound and the tick tick tick sound is from the valves
10:37 foot peg?
Nice road, but way too many people on it. When I ride, it's to get away.
6:02, close call !! ... But, great movie ;)
