About this model
About the BMW R 100 GS
The BMW R100GS is the iconic travel enduro introduced by BMW Motorrad in 1987, powered by an air-cooled boxer-twin of 980 cc producing 60 hp. The R100GS was BMW's answer to the growing adventure market, building on the legendary R80G/S with which BMW had already won the Dakar Rally. The distinctive Paralever rear suspension eliminated the so-called 'cardan jerk' that had plagued shaft-drive BMW models, and the large Paris-Dakar 24-litre fuel tank gave the bike a virtually unlimited range. BMW produced the R100GS until 1996.
The R100GS targets riders who want to combine adventure touring with solid reliability. The upright riding position, low centre of gravity and modest power output make it accessible to average-experienced riders, while the boxer engine lasts virtually indefinitely with correct maintenance. In its day it competed with the Honda Africa Twin and Yamaha XTZ750. Today the R100GS is a valued classic with a dedicated fanbase, low running costs and easy maintainability.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
Check the Paralever rear suspension for play in the pivot and driveshaft couplings: wear causes handling problems and is expensive to fix.
Inspect the carburettor (Bing or Dell'Orto) for condition and correct tuning: 35+ year old carbs are prone to blockages and rough idling.
Check the valve clearances on the boxer cylinders: the BMW R-series needs regular valve adjustment; this is often skipped in budget maintenance.
Verify the condition of the swingarm bearings and steering head bearings: high mileages and off-road use wear these parts faster than on a pure touring bike.
Watch for rust on the frame tubes under the engine and around the side-stand mount: older BMWs are prone to internal rust on bikes ridden in damp climates.
