  1. Years2014–2018

    Liquid-cooled (2014-2018)

    Generation

    This all-new Adventure uses the partially liquid-cooled boxer with a wet clutch and ride-by-wire. It feels markedly stronger and more modern, with the characteristic wide tank and LC bodywork.

    1,170 cc · 125 hp · 2 cyl.

  2. Years2010–2013

    DOHC (2010-2013)

    Generation

    The DOHC generation gained twin-cam cylinder heads and stronger performance while retaining the classic air/oil-cooled character. Tank capacity and the long-distance Adventure chassis remained broadly unchanged.

    1,170 cc · 110 hp · 2 cyl.

  3. Years2006–2009

    Hexhead (2006-2009)

    Generation

    The first R 1200 GS Adventure combines the air/oil-cooled boxer with a large 33-litre tank, longer suspension and rugged touring equipment. Its older cylinder heads distinguish it from the later DOHC version.

    1,170 cc · 105 hp · 2 cyl.

About this model

About the BMW R 1200 GS Adventure

The BMW R 1200 GS Adventure was the heavy-duty long-distance variant of the R 1200 GS from 2006 to 2018, built for world travel. The 1,170 cc boxer makes 110-125 hp and is paired with a 33-litre tank, crash bars, longer-travel suspension, a 19-inch front wheel and a taller screen. From 2014 onwards it shared the air/liquid-cooled DOHC cylinder head with the regular GS and added ride modes, ASC, ABS Pro and optional ESA.

The Adventure targets touring riders planning weeks-long expeditions. Wet weight is around 260 kg and seat height sits at 890-910 mm, so it is genuinely tall; long inseams help and a lower seat is available as an option. Competitors are the KTM 1290 Super Adventure, Triumph Tiger 1200 XR/Explorer and Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports. The Adventure remains in strong demand on the Dutch used market, holding its value well thanks to the active long-distance touring community.

  • BMW R 1200 GS Adventure
Before you buy

What to check before buying

  • Check the final drive (Paralever) for oil leaks and crown-wheel play, especially on high-mileage examples.

  • Inspect the plastic tank for warping and stress cracks; early LC Adventures (2014-2015) had a known recall.

  • Test the iABS servo brake module on pre-2009 bikes; warning lights indicate an expensive replacement unit.

  • Inspect the aluminium crash bars for impact damage and ask specifically about off-road use.

  • Confirm completed recalls (fork tubes 2017, fuel pump 2014-2018) with paperwork.
