WTF?: BMW R 1200 GS Adventure convertible


WTF?: BMW R 1200 GS Adventure convertible

The first reaction that you tend to have when seeing this is best resumed by the title. What’s the point of riding a motorcycle if you have any sort of roof above your head? Apparently, the respective umbrella “doubles as a sunshade and a rotary type clothes line plus of course it’s handy to be able to use it when it’s raining!”



Manchester dealership offers Long Way Down replicas for sale


Manchester dealership offers Long Way Down replicas for sale

Two replica BMW 1200GS Adventure motorcycles, one of Ewan McGregor and the other of Charley Boorman are waiting for their future customers in Manchester. By the number of fans that the Long Way Down TV series has, the bikes won’t gather dust for sure, but it is well worth mentioning these as THE internet find of the day.

The replicas stand out thanks to the same leopard and zebra patterns while traction control, ABS brakes and a tire pressure control system are standard and ready for those who feel like going on the Brit’s tire marks from John O’Groats to Cape Town.

The blue one is Ewan McGregor’s replica and features one-off features such as a dynamic comfort pack, heated grips and an onboard computer, just to mention a few. It will sell for the equivalent of $14,814, which is quite a bargain considering the story to which it relates.

The Charley Boorman replica features extra pannier fastenings, fog lights and an electronic suspension adjuster and it will sell for the equivalent of $16,000.

Quite frankly, I believe that these bikes should belong to a single owner or at least those who buy them separately to be good friends, just like the authors of the historic journey are. This way, the story will go on and the bikes won’t drift away one from the other.

The bikes are situated at 326 Chester Road, Old Trafford, Manchester and the dealership is called Williams Motorcycles. Better give it a ring at 0845 194 8669 for more information before heading there.





BMW R1200GS Barbie Edition. WTF?


BMW R1200GS Barbie Edition. WTF?

When I first saw this picture I checked the calendar to see if today is by any chance Valentine’s Day and this is just the result of some guy desecrating his bike in order for his girl to forgive him for not spending as much time cuddling or something like that. But no!

There have actually been “rumors” (which I would have loved not to hear about)) that BMW is preparing a Barbie Edition and this is just a rendering of that because otherwise the world of those who actually go around the world will be turned upside down. Can you imagine that? How can anyone even picture such a horrible image?

Bye, Bye girls! And then she goes vrrrrooooomm. I feel like puking.





When dealers start doing commercials

These guys are truly dedicated to the work they do; so dedicated that they’ve even made this funny motorcycle ad for the BMW R1200GS. Inspired on Steve Erwin’s TV shows (notice the attitude, behavior and accent), only that the subject of talk was in this case a motorcycle, you cannot stop laughing when you see that guy, especially as you anticipate what happens.

BMW R 1200 ST

Sport Touring is a class well known to BMW because, well…BMW just about invented it.

Even BMW fanatics are amazed at how our engineers were able to give the famed two cylinder Boxer engine even more power, topping the R 1200 S out to an incredible 122 bhp. The new S is also 22 lbs lighter than the previous model, and with a nimble Telelever front suspension, low center of gravity, optional ABS, hitting mountain passes of passes on the track is equally thrilling.
