Everyone involved with this project has been working very hard to try to develop and progress at a good rate so we can challenge at the highest level, but every other team is also raising its game, so it’s not easy. We have found that our bike and riders seem to adapt better to some tracks than others and now we are looking at making the bike work regardless of the track layout or rider preference. So yes, we have done a good job, but we have big expectations from this project, so I am pushing to ensure we continue to work harder than ever until we reach our goals. Will future RR owners benefit from direct improvements due to racing activities? IN AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW, BMW MOTORRAD’S MOTORSPORT DIRECTOR BERNHARD GROBMEIER REVEALS WHY RACING IS VITAL TO THE CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT OF THE S 1000 RR AND HOW PROUD HE IS OF THE WHOLE TEAM BEHIND THE “RR” PROJECT… What have been the major learning points for you in your debut year as BMW Motorrad’s Motorsport Director? We are all learning together. We have two very different riders who demand different things in order to get the best performance on track, so we work very hard to give them the tools they need to do the job. We are also constantly striving to become more competitive, but the problem is that everybody is attempting to do the same thing, so it’s a real race 16 How proud is everyone at BMW of the success of the RR in the marketplace? Everyone at BMW is very proud of what we have created. The RR was a step into an unknown area for us – sports bikes – where the likes of Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki and Ducati have dominated for the last 20 years. We wanted to build a bike that you could instantly ride – regardless of your ability – and feel comfortable doing so. This motorcycle incorporates all the technological ingredients like traction control and ABS to make you feel at ease with the machine, despite the engine power, while still appealing to advanced riders purely because of its performance. In my opinion, BMW has created a very special motorcycle. What has been your measure of just how good the RR series production actually is? An RR is a serious track tool. Would you advise owners to consider training to get the most from their machines? The RR is designed to be very forgiving and safe, but in order to enhance your own personal performance I think advanced training can be beneficial. If you go to a school and learn how to develop your current level of riding ability, then you will unlock so much more potential in yourself and the bike. Tuition and practice will definitely make for a more satisfying RR experience. We work with all areas of the series development team and always feed back detailed information. For example, we often speak with project managers and those responsible for the chassis, engine, electronics and ignition, and relay our findings so the next MEET THE BMW MOTORRAD MOTORSPORT DIRECTOR. in terms of development and a matter of who can develop the fastest and move to the front. generation of products benefit from what we have discovered. The racing environment naturally tests all our components to extremes, so this information gets funnelled back into the team. It is our job to ensure that the RR evolves, and passing on information is key to ensuring that happens. We assess the success of the RR on the basis of both sales figures and track performance. In its first year on sale the RR won 14 national championships, which is a truly amazing feat. We also entered the WSBK championship as it is the ultimate test for any production motorcycle and it is important that RR customers see their bike being tested and developed on track. In terms of sales figures, we knew we were stepping into a new segment and one which has been decreasing in size over recent years, but we still managed to become market leader in most countries around the world. Is there a more competitive racing series on the planet than WSBK? This series is undoubtedly tough. We stepped in three years ago with a brand new machine and team, to try to challenge manufacturers and teams that have been in this paddock for the last 20 years. We are definitely still playing catch-up and have made good progress, but so has everybody else. We need to continue working to improve the package we have and develop our knowledge so we can be out there winning races. 17 UNSTOPPABLE SPORT HP INSTRUMENT CLUSTER K 1300 S TANKBAG HP CARBON TANK COVER TINTED WINDSHIELD SPORT PANNIERS LUGGAGE GRID BMW MOTORRAD ASC SPORT HELMET REAR SPLASH PROTECTOR HP CARBON FRONT MUDGUARD Taking the racing line.

DESIGNED IN COOPERATION WITH NAVIGATION EXPERTS GARMIN, AND CREATED ESPECIALLY FOR MOTORCYCLISTS TO USE WITH GLOVED FINGERS WHILE RIDING, THE NAVIGATOR IV IS A BIG STEP FORWARD IN RIDER COMMUNICATIONS. MAKING A NAVIGATION UNIT PERFECTLY SUITED FOR RIDERS IS EASIER SAID THAN DONE, BUT THE LATEST GENERATION NAVIGATOR IV IS IN A CLASS OF ITS OWN. THERE’S NO BETTER WAY OF SEEING THE WORLD THAN ON A BMW MOTORCYCLE. WE SHOULD KNOW, WE’VE BEEN BUILDING THEM SINCE 1923. YOU’LL SEE AFICIONADOS OF OUR TOURING BIKE RANGE ON EVERY CONTINENT, IN EVERY COUNTRY, PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES IN THEIR QUEST TO DISCOVER WHAT’S AROUND THE NEXT CORNER. Four special buttons specifically designed for use while on the move allow easy access to all the main functions. The Navigator IV also connects to Bluetooth® enabled mobile phones, ensuring that making and receiving phone calls is not only safe, but also crystal clear. When it comes to enjoyment of your motorcycle, other than the actual machine itself, nothing is more important than wearing the right helmet. Fortunately, the latest System 6 from BMW Motorrad has been 30 years in the making and is therefore one of the most advanced helmets ever produced. This sixth-generation System is the latest in a long line of motorcycle helmets that can trace its history back to 1981 and the first “System” produced by BMW. During the past three decades, thousands of customers have discovered the benefits of the BMW flip-front helmet. Over the course of its development, advances in materials technology, crash test data collection and changing consumer requirements have brought about significant innovations in the helmet’s design. Once you’ve tried a flip-front helmet, it’s unlikely that you’ll go back to a full-face helmet, as the benefits are numerous. Being able to lift up (rather than remove) the helmet to talk to others – for example when paying a road toll or filling up on fuel at a service station – or being able to eat, drink or smoke without having to unfasten, take off, and then put the helmet on again, are all luxuries that flip-front helmet users enjoy. 34 The latest System 6 is one of the quietest flip-fronts on the market and comes with a drop-down, integral sun visor, which is simply activated by a slider on the left side. This was requested by many customers, as this quick, effective solution does away with the need for sunglasses or having to carry a spare, tinted visor for use in bright conditions. Importantly, the System 6 is light, with excellent aeroacoustics, and therefore places less strain on its wearer. BMW Motorrad has placed a strong emphasis on safety and the System 6 possesses exceptionally high standards of impact absorption, including an extra neck band to prevent the helmet from twisting on impact, ensuring it remains in the best possible position on the rider’s head. The helmet’s interior is made of Alcantara® and breathable DuPont Coolmax®, which is removable and washable, the chin strap fastens with a push-fit buckle, and there is naturally provision for installation of an in-helmet communication system, such as the BMW Motorrad communication system. The use of Bluetooth® technology seamlessly connects the Navigator IV to the System 6’s in-helmet communication system, allowing clear route guidance through high-quality speakers. This doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy music from your iPod, MP3 player or your own motorcycle’s sound system, as all of these devices will work together simultaneously with the Navigator IV. When route guidance is necessary, your music is paused automatically, then restarted afterwards. With pre-installed mapping data for 40 countries in eastern and western Europe, you’ll be able to go further in confidence and in safety, knowing that there is no need to stop at the roadside every time you need to consult a map. Having the confidence that a motorcycle will get you to your destination quickly, safely and comfortably is what BMW ownership is all about. Add the System 6 with in-helmet communication system and Navigator IV to your essential riding kit, pack your panniers and discover the sheer pleasure of touring, BMW style. Furthermore, during development it underwent intensive testing to ensure its integrity. The visor, for example, was lifted up and down 25,000 times, while the chin-bar mechanism (opened by means of a central button) was tested 10,000 times in order to recreate the everyday strains it was bound to experience in the real world. 35 UNSTOPPABLE TOUR ANTI-THEFT ALARM SYSTEM R 1200 RT BMW MOTORRAD ASC TANKBAG WITH BASE PLATE LARGE TOP BOX BMW MOTORRAD NAVIGATOR IV EXTRA LOW SEAT CONNECTION FOR MP3 PLAYER SYSTEM PANNIER PROTECTION SYSTEM 6 HELMET IMPACT PROTECTION SYSTEM FOR SYSTEM PANNIER The evolution of a legend. The System helmet takes comfort to the next level. Its chin section can be easily opened via a central button, and its innovative four-hinge design means the helmet is particularly compact, even when flipped up. It is made of fibreglass-reinforced plastic and features neckstraps to prevent twisting in the event of an accident, along with a removable, washable inner.

SINCE 1969, BMW MOTORCYCLES HAVE BEEN PRODUCED IN THIS SPECIAL FACTORY FOR EXPORT ALL OVER THE WORLD: IN 2012, MORE THAN 100,000 OF BMW MOTORRAD’S FINEST MACHINES WILL BE SHIPPED FROM THIS VERY PLANT TO AROUND 130 COUNTRIES ACROSS THE GLOBE. EXACTLY HOW YOUR FAVOURITE MOTORCYCLES ARE ACTUALLY ASSEMBLED, IS A STORY IN ITSELF … With around 1,900 employees, the BMW factory in Berlin produces up to 510 motorcycles a day from the entire model range, as well as about 24,000 brake discs for the car division. Annual motorcycle output is now around eight times higher than when production first started in 1969, when 12,000 motorcycles were assembled in Berlin. The foundation of every motorcycle is laid in the machining shop, where core parts such as engine cases, cylinder heads, crankshafts and connecting rods, as well as frame elements, tanks and chassis components, are produced. Computer-controlled machining centres process components with high precision, ensuring the first-class quality that BMW bikes are renowned for, thanks to state-of-the-art machining and measuring technologies, as well as the highly-qualified associates who operate them. For BMW engine assembly, around 150 technicians working in two shifts build up to 450 highperformance engines every day, from Boxer twins and “fours” up to the magnificent inline six-cylinder engines found on the K 1600 GT and GTL machines. Using more than 600 different small parts and components, technicians are supported by 21 automatic workstations. It takes around 90 minutes to assemble a Boxer engine and around 160 minutes to put together the new six-cylinder engine. 42 In the paint shop, five computer-controlled robots apply paint to several thousand motorcycle components a day. These components come in more than 70 different shapes and sizes, and are coated with water-based paint in more than 30 shades. However, in many cases, the skill and dexterity of experienced human painters is still required. For example, a steady hand is imperative when it comes to applying the traditional trim lines as well as tape applications to the tanks and side panels. A complex supply network is essential to a smooth production process, with the logistics department coordinating the material flow and ensuring that the components are available in the right amount and quality, in the right place at the right time. Almost 10,000 different components, delivered by 500 external partners from 33 countries, are fitted into the right sequence for the production process. Thanks to process coordination, painted components, groups of parts tailored for order from the preassembly and the pre-fitted components all arrive at the conveyor belt on time. The assembly lines are where the motorcycles are actually put together. They are fixed on mounting hangers on 300 rotating “hooks” moving in a flexible conveyor system. In this system, the machines are automatically transported through a 500-metre-long assembly line. Each mounting hook automatically rises to the most favourable working height at almost 150 assembly stations, where all order-related data, as well as fastening torques and default settings, are communicated automatically to the relevant station. Depending on the model, it takes from 220 to 360 minutes before the 2,000 parts and components are built into a complete and customer-ready BMW motorcycle. By the time BMW motorcycles reach the end of the assembly line, preparations have already taken place in the finishing shop for their dispatch to customers all over the world. Recyclable and foldable steel packing is used for deliveries to the main European markets, while solid containers made of wood and cardboard are used to transport motorcycles to overseas markets. Sustainability and logistical efficiency are paramount, so the end products are transported from the plant and further afield by truck, train and cargo ship. On 6 May 2011, a significant milestone in the company’s history was celebrated when the two millionth motorcycle left the assembly line at the BMW plant in Berlin Spandau. It was a proud moment for everyone involved in this ultra-modern vehicle production plant, where man and machine build two-wheeled dreams for customers to enjoy all over the world. BMW bikes are exported from the German capital to 130 countries and, with an annual investment of around 30 million euros in the factory, this innovative plant at Berlin Spandau will remain at the heart of BMW motorcycle manufacture for the foreseeable future. Rest assured it won’t be long until BMW employees are celebrating the production of the three millionth motorcycle in Berlin.

EXOTIC, EXPENSIVE AND UNDENIABLY COOL, CARBON-FIBRE PRODUCTS NOT ONLY LOOK GREAT BUT ARE BECOMING INCREASINGLY AVAILABLE ON THE CURRENT RANGE OF BMW MOTORCYCLES. Once the preserve of expensive supercars and Formula One teams, this high-tech composite material is now finding a home in many different markets thanks to its high tensile strength, low weight and low thermal expansion. According to Johann Sievers-Paulsen, who is one of the BMW Group’s experts within this field, the synergy with the company’s car division in terms of research and development has allowed BMW to develop and offer very high-quality, direct carbon-fibre replacements for standard plastic parts. “BMW Motorrad has several highly skilled EXPERTS ON CARBON-FIBRE STRUCTURES, who are involved in the development process right from the beginning of the design of the individual components. There is also a lot of synergy with the automotive division and we are in continuous discussions with them. This means that our high-performance carbonfibre parts mostly have the same requirements as the exterior automotive parts, resulting in extremely high quality and engineering levels.” So, thanks to a combination of in-house technical expertise and a desire to offer the highest levels of quality and customization, exclusive HP carbonmounted parts are available for bikes like the BMW S 1000 RR and the K 1300 R. Just how far you go to personalize your machine is entirely up to you … THESE FEATURES make the use of carbon-fibre very popular in aerospace, civil engineering, the military and especially the motorsports industry, where it can be found in a wide range of performance vehicles including sports cars and superbikes, as well as racing bicycle frames, powerboats and even safety helmets. Because this composite material is so easy on the eye, it is often used in the tuning and customizing industry, where the woven panels are left unpainted for maximum effect. Of course, carbon-fibre doesn’t only look great, its use is also becoming increasingly important in vehicle production in terms of weight savings, and therefore lower emissions, with a potential weight reduction of 50 per cent compared to steel or approximately 30 per cent compared to aluminium. Simple and instant weight savings for interchangeable parts then; but its production process is anything but simple. BMW ONLY USES PAN (polyacrylonitrile-based) high-quality fibres in the spinning process to create the precursor monofilament yarn, which is then “carbonized” at a high temperature (more than 1000 degrees Celsius).The exclusion of air oxygen means that the fibre yarn carbonizes, rather than burns. For the carbonization of the precursor yarn into carbon-fibre, the yarn passes through several ovens set at different temperatures, and then runs through a “sizing bath”, which assures the perfect fibre-matrix adhesion needed for the lamination process. The yarn is then wound onto carbon-fibre spools for further textile processes such as weaving or multiaxial production. 58 AS COOL AS CARBON. It’s all incredibly complicated – but the end result is an incredibly strong, yet flexible and lightweight material that has many uses and looks great. You’ll see it on BMW sports cars, such as the high-performance M3 and M6 models, which use carbon-fibre roofs that offer substantial weight savings over the standard items. Of course, when carbon-fibre was introduced into FORMULA ONE RACING, it revolutionized the sport, and just about everything on F1 cars except the engine is now made of carbon-fibre, resulting in stiffer, lighter and even faster cars. Ultimately though, this amazing composite material is just a man-made fabric that comes on a roll and can be manipulated for a variety of different applica- tions. Because its structures behave differently to steel or aluminium, it can be perfectly customized by BMW engineers to suit the PERFORMANCE OF A PARTICULAR COMPONENT, whether it is flexibility in a certain direction, or high stiffness in another direction. For motorcycles such as the S 1000 RR and K 1300 R, a wide-range of carbon-fibre HIGH-PERFORMANCE PARTS have been designed so that owners can customize their own machines and give them an even more sporty look. The parts include: HP Carbon front wheel cover; rear wheel cover; badge carrier; tank cover; tail-hump cover; chain guard; heel guard; and engine spoiler. 59 UNSTOPPABLE ROADSTER R 1200 R BMW MOTORRAD ASC TANKBAG ANTI-THEFT ALARM SYSTEM BACKREST PAD FOR TOP BOX TOP BOX INNER BAG FOR TOP BOX VARIABLE INSERT LARGE PANNIER MOUNTINGS INCLUDING LUGGAGE GRID HIGH WINDSHIELD HP MILLED HAND LEVER LED REAR LIGHT CLUB MEN’S/LADIES’ LEATHER JACKET SYSTEM PANNIERS INNER BAG FOR SYSTEM PANNIER AKRAPOVIČ SPORT SILENCER The quintessential motorcycling jacket.

By receiving this information via the instrument panel and communication system, riders and drivers are able to react sooner and avoid rear-end collisions that can be caused by a chain reaction of late braking. RIDER INFORMATION AND ASSISTANCE SYSTEM Work is currently underway on an adaptation of a camera-based rider information and assistance system that can actively contribute to preventing dangerous situations from arising in the first place. The system provides feedback on speed limits by means of road sign detection and graphic display on the instrument panel. The camera is also capable of automatic detection of obstacles on the road, and a warning is given if there is a risk of collision. The system actively detects danger and is capable of generating a visual signal which draws the motorcyclist’s attention to the object detected, as well as preparing the brake system for imminent intervention. passive safety, as does the Neck Brace System introduced in 2007 and decades of helmet development. There are of course many technical solutions being developed that will find their way onto serial production machines in the years to come. Here is a summary of the latest innovations that will give future generations of motorcyclists a chance to enjoy and share our love of two wheels. MAKE NO MISTAKE, THE ROADS ARE GETTING BUSIER, AND WITH THAT MOTORCYCLISTS ARE EXPOSED TO GREATER RISK. FORTUNATELY, BMW MOTORRAD HAS BEEN A LEADER IN MOTORCYCLING SAFETY FOR DECADES, WITH A LONG LIST OF DEVELOPMENTS DEDICATED TO IMPROVING RIDER SAFETY. BMW Motorrad’s previous achievements in the field of rider safety are almost too numerous to mention. They include the world’s first ever motorcycle ABS, tyre pressure control, auto stability control, electronically adjustable suspension, adaptive headlight technology, Race ABS, and traction control with a choice of riding modes that offer different throttle response and torque characteristics. In the area of rider equipment, the NP Protectors developed by BMW Motorrad for motorcycle suits contribute to 68 ECALL WITH ACN In the aftermath of a serious road accident, every second is vital. Already available on BMW cars, a BMW Motorrad Emergency Call/Automatic Collision Notification system is currently being worked on. If the rider arrives at an accident on a bike fitted with eCall, he can use the eCall button to trigger a manual emergency call, which transmits the accident details and exact location to a BMW Call Centre to relay to the nearest rescue coordination centre. If the rider of a BMW motorcycle fitted with eCall is involved in an accident himself, this is registered by means of the ACN sensor system and an automatic emergency call is triggered with the BMW Call Centre, enabling transmission of the required data, such as the location and detailed information on the nature of the accident. BMW MOTORRAD CONNECTEDRIDE Assistance systems based on vehicle-to-vehicle communication make motorcycling even safer and many of the projects in development featured below will be installed in serial production BMW motorcycles of the future. THE CROSS-TRAFFIC ASSISTANT analyzes road users approaching a junction, the priority situation and the probability of a collision. A cockpit display indicates traffic regulations to waiting drivers, who, in the case of a potential failure to give way, would be warned of the risk of collision in three stages. To protect the rider, the motorcycle headlight intensity is increased and additional LED strobes at the side of the machine are activated to increase visibility in case of an increasing risk of collision. If a collision is imminent, the motorcycle horn is sounded automatically. THE TRAFFIC LIGHT PHASE ASSISTANT allows the traffic light system to communicate with the motorcycle so that if the lights are due to be on red when the rider arrives at an intersection at an unchanged speed, he would receive this information early enough via the instrument panel to be able to brake gently. The assistant is also able to display the speed at which he could reach the traffic lights during the green cycle. A VIEW TO THE FUTURE. THE OVERTAKING ASSISTANT uses a system of sensors (already in serial production in conjunction with Race ABS and DTC) to make an overtaking motorcycle more visible to other road users. If the vehicle ahead moves out to overtake at the same time as the motorcycle (because the driver has not seen the motorcyclist or wrongly estimated his speed), then the motorcyclist is in danger. Additional LEDs in the turn indicator then intensify the signalling effect, making the motorcycle more visible to the car driver and making it more likely the driver will notice the motorcycle before it disappears into the blind spot. THE BAD WEATHER WARNING gives motorcyclists early warning of fog, rain, snow or black ice, shown by a visual indication in the instrument panel – optionally also a voice message in the BMW Motorrad Communication System. The assistant also gives details of approximately when the rider can be expected to encounter these conditions. THE OBSTACLE WARNING advises riders of obstacles ahead, such as oil or chippings on the surface, or a broken-down vehicle at the roadside. This is indicated by a signal on the instrument panel – also with optional voice message – with details of approximately how far away the obstacle is. The warning and location of the danger could also be transmitted from vehicle to vehicle. THE EMERGENCY VEHICLE WARNING SYSTEM provides a visual display in the instrument panel of an approaching emergency vehicle. A clear symbol and a voice message warn the rider, also providing details of how far away the vehicle is. 69 UNSTOPPABLE ROADSTER TANKBAG VARIABLE INSERT F 800 R BACKREST PAD FOR SMALL TOP BOX SMALL TOP BOX INNER BAG SPORT WINDSHIELD LUGGAGE GRID WHITE INDICATORS SPORT PANNIERS CITY 2 DENIM TROUSERS AKRAPOVIČ SPORT SILENCER To survive in the urban jungle, you need to be able to talk the talk and walk the walk.

On that World Record it was just me and the road, so it was quite a selfish exercise. “Discover our Earth” was a marathon with a huge team of individual riders to manage. That made it very tricky – but very, very rewarding, too.” With the ambitious trip making headlines wherever the riders went, Kevin has already received sufficient interest to start planning the next “Discover our Earth” journey, which will take place in 2013. For more details on how to join the expedition or to find out more about a wide range of tours, visit www.globebusters.com Riding solo around the world is hard enough, but imagine the challenge of taking 30 riders on an epic 40,000-mile, 248-day motorcycle adventure through 27 countries and across six continents? That’s just what GS fanatic Kevin Sanders did on his recent record-breaking, eight-month ride around the globe. Knowing that there were plenty of riders who wanted to explore the world on their GS, but didn’t feel confident enough to venture out alone, Kevin decided that there was sufficient demand for an organized and guided journey-of-a-lifetime. The “Discover Our Earth” trip took 18 months to plan and was put together by Kevin and the team at Globe Busters Motorcycle Expeditions, in association with Edelweiss Motorcycle Travel. FOR AS LONG AS THERE HAVE BEEN MOTORCYCLES, THERE HAVE BEEN ADVENTURE RIDERS, USING THEIR MACHINES TO SEE THE WORLD AND EXPERIENCE LIFE-CHANGING JOURNEYS TO FAR-FLUNG CORNERS OF OUR PLANET. MANY OF THESE “GLOBERIDERS” SHARE A LOVE OF BMW GS MOTORCYCLES, WHICH THEY RELY ON TO TRANSPORT THEM SAFELY ACROSS SOME OF THE MOST INHOSPITABLE TERRAIN FOUND ON EARTH. HAVE MOTORCYCLE, WILL RIDE AND RIDE ... 90 It attracted riders from all over the world on a range of BMW motorcycles, including the R 1200 GS Adventure, F 800 GS and F 650 GS. Starting and finishing in the Austrian Alps, “Discover Our Earth” lasted around eight months and saw a combined total of 1,000,000 miles completed by 30 riders. Each motorcycle used around five full sets of tyres and around 4,000 litres of fuel during this amazing journey through 27 countries, ranging in altitude from 27 metres below sea level up to 4,800 metres above. On returning safely, expedition Leader Kevin, who is the founder of BMW Travel Partner Globe Busters, said: “Our epic journey was a truly incredible motorcycling experience. Along the way we watched the Dakar Rally start in Buenos Aires and the sun set over Uluru. We trekked up to Machu Picchu and climbed the Great Wall of China. We crossed the Andes, the Sahara, the Russian Steppe, the Urals, the Carpathians, the Alps, the Equator, the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, the Golden Triangle, and the Panama Canal. We also rode two legendary routes – the Silk Road and the Pan American Highway.” Like the majority of riders on “Discover Our Earth”, Kevin relied on a BMW R 1200 GS Adventure and has in fact used GS bikes throughout his many years of travelling. During this incredible journey, Kevin says the bikes performed amazingly, never letting their riders down and even managing to convert the few motorcyclists who were riding other brands. “Over the course of the 40,000 miles, we experienced all conditions from -7°C to more than 44°C. We rode everywhere from deserts to mountains. We had rain, heat, humidity, cold, dust, mud and river crossings, but the bikes stood up to every challenge we threw at them. We had a mix of R 1200 GS machines and R 1200 GS Adventures, as well as R 1150 GS, F 800 GS and F 650 GS bikes. “We normally have a couple of non-BMW riders on our trips and once they experience first-hand how little maintenance the BMWs need compared to other bikes, I think they do return home thinking about changing brands.” The majority of models were the R 1200 GS Adventures – these always come out top in terms of problems or any fixes needed en route. You just put fuel in, turn the key and away you go. Every bike made it home in one piece! Kevin cites this latest journey as his hardest challenge to date, which might sound strange coming from someone who holds a Guinness World Record for riding around the world on a BMW R 1150 GS in 19 days. 91 UNSTOPPABLE ENDURO FUNCTIONAL TANKBAG F 650 GS BACKREST PAD FOR VARIABLE TOP BOX SPOILER ATTACHMENTS FOR LARGE HAND PROTECTORS INNER BAG HAND GUARDS FOR LARGE HAND PROTECTORS LOW SEAT LARGE CLEAR WINDSHIELD VARIABLE TOP BOX LED INDICATORS LARGE LUGGAGE GRID FOR VARIABLE TOP BOX VARIABLE PANNIERS PANNIER MOUNTINGS AKRAPOVIČ SPORT SILENCER ENGINE PROTECTION BAR 92 PLASTIC BASH PLATE SANTIAGO BOOTS First-rate protection, excellent comfort, and timeless style – what more could an adventure rider want?

Riders can rate each other’s tours using a star rating or thumbs-up/thumbs-down icon, or can leave a comment about a tour, and upload photos and videos of themselves. Many users have already contributed their favourite rides, with entries across the world – giving inside knowledge of the best places for visitors and adventure travellers to explore. JOIN THE BMW MOTORRAD COMMUNITY. BMW MOTORRAD HAS LAUNCHED A NEW ONLINE NETWORK THAT IS REVOLUTIONIZING THE WAY PEOPLE PLAN TOURS, MEET FRIENDS AND SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCES. THE BMW MOTORRAD COMMUNITY IS A SOCIAL NETWORKING TOOL WITH A DIFFERENCE, AS IT IS MORE ABOUT THE REAL WORLD THAN THE VIRTUAL ONE. The aim of the community is to provide a platform where people who share a love of riding can find each other, arrange trips and spend more time than ever out on the road. The BMW Motorrad Community is split into four main areas and members have access to a range of tools: TourFinder, Profile, Photos, and Meet and Ride. TourFinder is one of the most exciting features, offering huge scope for planning and discovering tours lasting anything from a day to more than a month, or from one kilometre to more than 10,000 kilometres. The level can be set at easy, medium or hard, with options for Enduro, Roadster, Tour and Sport bikes. The simple search tool lets members enter a destination country, then adjust duration, difficulty and distance with user-friendly sliders. TourFinder then suggests routes based on those criteria. 114 Since the Community launched in 2011, there have been thousands of visitors, many of whom have created their own profiles, uploaded photos and videos, added routes for others to view, and sent messages, invitations and friend requests to other BMW fans. This dedicated global community of riders is growing all the time and already boasts more than 4,500 members, so is your gateway to a world of possibilities. If you have the keys to a motorcycle and access to the Internet, then we invite you to become acquainted with our world of BMW – online and out on the road. Join the BMW Motorrad Community now and see just how far you can go. Meet and Ride is another key area within the community – it allows users to find each other and organize a ride. Members can either plan a trip and invite others to join them, or browse requests for riding partners and find a trip they would like to join. They can then arrange when and where to meet using a message system. Meet and Ride is an ideal way to get to know new riding companions or to arrange to meet up with friends. BMW Motorrad Community has also taken care of the only potential problem caused by such a packed social calendar. The Route Diary, which automatically updates when members plan or join a route, makes keeping track of plans simple, providing instant access to the details of any plans made through the site. The My Profile section is an opportunity to share photos, videos, riding tips and more with friends or the whole community. A choice of privacy settings means details are only shared with those the user chooses. Accounts have the option of adding or finding friends. These can be people who become acquainted through the Motorrad Community, or existing friends whose details can be imported from other social networking accounts like Facebook. Individuals can also join or create groups, manage a newsfeed and, most importantly, add details of motorcycles! Weather reports for the user’s local area are a handy extra, particularly as they include a suggestion for what piece of BMW Riding Apparel will suit the conditions outdoors. Visit www.bmw-motorrad.com/community to explore further. The Photos function provides the opportunity to browse other users’ images of their machines or sights and scenery from tours they’ve taken. Users can contribute their own shots if desired. The BMW Motorrad Community is easy to use, and while it provides members with an excellent online experience, the aim is not to create a virtual world with virtual bikers and rides. The network is intended to get people out on the road, find them riding companions and to help people share their passion and knowledge. 115 HP2 SPORT TANKBAG • Capacity approx. . litres • Splash-proof • Small map pocket SAFETY SCREW FOR OIL FILLER CAP PADDOCK STAND ADAPTOR • Made of milled aluminium • Lockable with special Allen key HP LAP TIMER • Compatible with HP instrument cluster • Automatically measures lap times • Transmitter and receiver available separately GEAR-SHIFT ASSIST WITH INVERTED SHIFT DIRECTION • Fast upshifts with reversed shifting pattern • For track use only (not homologated for road use) • Operation of standard gear-shift assist is not affected PADDOCK STAND • Sturdy stainless-steel square-tube construction • Jacks up motorcycles quickly and securely • Suitable for use on loose ground • Long lever ensures easy operation HIGH PERFORMANCE 116 117 K 1300 GT TINTED WINDSHIELD • Scratch-resistant coating • Sporty looks • Steplessly adjustable via electric controls LOW SEAT (NOT SHOWN) • Seat height/step length, adjustable: – mm/,–, mm ANTI-THEFT ALARM SYSTEM WITH REMOTE CONTROL BMW MOTORRAD NAVIGATOR IV • Alarm sounds and visual warning is activated if motorcycle is moved • Can be disarmed by key or remotely • Fully programmable arming code • Dimensions: . x . x . cm, robust, waterproof (to IPX standard), fuel-resistant and shock-proof • Monitor: ,-colour TFT touchscreen, . x . cm (. inches), with automatic day/night mode, x pixels, and high-contrast, non-reflective, UV-resistant display • Power supply: removable lithium-ion battery, charged automatically via on-board electrics.
