Prós e contras em comparação
Prós e contras em comparação
BMW R 1200 GS 2015

Uma GS sente-se em casa em quase todo o lado - mas apenas de forma limitada na pista de corridas. É um prazer sentir a potência do bicilindro boxer parcialmente arrefecido a água à saída da curva - 125 cv só no papel parecem muito mais fracos do que os 150 ou mesmo 160 cv da concorrência. Com 125 Newton metros de binário, a aceleração a partir do fundo é soberba e a GS, com 238 quilos pronta a conduzir, não carrega demasiada flacidez apesar da sua aparência volumosa. Em curvas muito apertadas, o baixo centro de gravidade também tem um efeito positivo - a BMW R 1200 GS é muito difícil de quebrar! Mesmo a suspensão dianteira com telelever, que suprime a tendência da roda dianteira para afundar durante a travagem, encaixa-se perfeitamente no pacote geral da GS e só pode diminuir ligeiramente o seu carácter desportivo.

A Adventure é a derradeira máquina de turismo. A altura elevada do assento limita o grupo-alvo, tal como o preço elevado. Mas se ultrapassar estes dois obstáculos, obtém-se uma magnífica máquina de fazer quilómetros. O motor faz com que todos os tipos de diversão de condução saiam das suas mangas. O baixo consumo de combustível em combinação com o gigantesco depósito de 30 litros garante uma autonomia incrivelmente longa.
