The BMW R1200GS is the benchmark by which all adventure motorcycles are measured. It is the bike that defined the category, and after decades of continuous development, it remains one of the most capable, versatile, and trusted machines on the road today. This 2017 example has covered 14,540km and arrives comprehensively equipped for serious adventure use.
 
Finished in white and built out with a purposeful selection of practical upgrades, this GS means business. SW-Motech crash bars provide robust protection, while the top box, tank bag, and panniers deliver a complete luggage solution ready for long-distance touring from day one. Rally pegs, spotlights, hand guards, a radiator guard, and a headlight guard round out a specification that reflects exactly how a GS is meant to be set up and used.
 
The 1170cc air-cooled boxer twin remains one of motorcycling's great engines -- characterful, torquey, and remarkably smooth for long days in the saddle. Combined with BMW's Telelever and Paralever suspension setup, the R1200GS delivers a ride quality and handling confidence that is difficult to match at any price point.
 
At R169,990, this is a fully kitted, well-maintained GS that is ready to go anywhere without spending another cent. Contact Smiths Motorcycles to arrange a viewing or test ride.
