People on the go with the world traveler R 1150 GS Adventure want to have sufficient storage space. For the Adventure, an adequate storage approach not only has to look good and offer enough space, but it has to be as robust and sturdy as the motorcycle itself. To meet these demands, aluminum side cases and a top case with a tailored multifunctional carrying system was developed for the R 1150 GS Adventure. Multifunctional? When the cases are removed, other objects can be easily strapped on and transported such as luggage, gas cans or small boxes.
You know how it is. You've been riding for hours and your hands are numb for the cold. Not anymore. Heated grips are just one of many standard features to be appointed on the new R 1150 GS Adventure.
A shorter transmission ratio for first gear is particularly suitable for difficult terrain or trips over small and narrow streets (such as hairpin turns) with a full load. This can be ordered as a first-time option for the R 1150 GS Adventure. Difficult stretches can be mastered reliably and easily.
No other manufacturer gives so much attention to driver safety as BMW Motorcycle. The new R 1150 GS Adventure is therefore equipped with a switchable ABS II/EVO braking system as standard equipment. Why switch off the ABS? Because many off-road situations require a blocked wheel which an activated ABS will prevent.

The new, large safety bar ideally fits the robust look of the R 1150 GS Adventure. It naturally offers the best possible protection for the engine and neighboring components (such as the tank), especially since unintentional contact with the ground is sometimes unavoidable on off-road terrain. This prevents costly repairs and exchanging engine housing parts. The engine safety bar is the ideal addition to the standard tough underride protection and the plastic engine cylinder protection.
To maintain visibility in difficult weather, the Adventure can be equipped with accessory fog headlights with protective grills, the ideal addition to standard headlights.
"At home on every street of the world" - This motto is 100% true for the Adventure. With the optional massive-bar tires, you can tackle difficult routes to out-of-the way places the world over. These tires are true globetrotters - Only the driver sets the limits!
