Wicked BMW GS ADV bike on tard me

[Eddieb]

These don't come come up for sale often, R80GS Basic

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Motorbikes/Dual-purpose/auction-198021929.htm

45 litre Acerbis tank (original tank available with small dent), alloy bash plate, Tag alloy bars, Bark buster hand guards, heavy duty fork springs, WP shock, heavy duty side stand, panniers.

Same motor as my G/S with the newer generation running gear plus supertanker 45l tank. These were an 'end of an era' limited edition before BMW went to the Oil heads (Injected oil cooled motor, heaps more weight) and are rare as a rare thing.

Nothing to do with me expect the puddle of drool i left on my monitor when I saw it.

I've nicknamed my G/S The mountain goat, it doesn't go anywhere fast, but is extremely sure footed in the rough stuff and goes over EVERYTHING.

[JATZ]

NIIIIICE & mrs jatz likes the look of it too.

HMMMMMM do I really NEED the wood in the wood shed

[Eddieb]

if you buy it I claim a finders fee of a ride. :2thumbsup

what is(was) the capacity of the std tank.

[Eddieb]

That one is the 26 litre as standard on the R100GS and retro-fitted to my R80G/S.

The one in the auction was fitted with teh 45 litre Touratech one http://www.touratech-usa.com/shop/show.lasso?sku=100-0020&-session=touratech:CA967DEF02e2102E7Dunrk7077C9

[Kokopelli]

what is(was) the capacity of the std tank.

I am pretty sure the standard tank takes 19 liters. For all but Africa the R100 tanks should be fine, giving a range of close to 400km. I don't see the point of those large tanks in NZ.

you can be the tanker for the other bikes?And charge accordingly.:done:
I thought the 45l one was a bit ott but a 400 km range not unreasonable....not so much for the absolute range but always having an option for a backroad loop where the closest gas station may be closed.

If you call an R1200GS gutless, you want it for the wrong reasons. I've never ridden one, but I don't even consider my 1150 gutless.

I have no idea how to do that. I just hear the GPS people talking about them.

well, relatively gutless. more guts than my KLR650.
what i really mean is when you give it a handful in 1st not much happens, but i know that the same not much would happen 2 up with luggage on a step hillside. if you get my meaning.

i really did like it, was super comfy and balanced.

Yes you would be a tanker, and you'd also be waiting around, while the other guys are having fun. I can't see that happening with 45 liters in the tank, even though it's carried quite low.

Great for long distance touring, though.

Theres a bloke up in CH-CH who on his many travels on a GS regularly shows sprots bikes the way home on roads that sprots bikes are made for,same old story,many bikes are considered gutless or a host of other names in order to make up for a riders lack of ability,not having a crack at the poster of gutless,just an observation after many years on motorcycles.

[reofix]

always predictable... razorsharp... after 40k in 2 years on as much gravel and b roads as i can find, my GS has proven anything but gutless... inspiring might be a better word

It's got a 35 liter tank as far as I know. You've got to be prepared to put in the maintenance. An old airhead needs to be looked after. Yes, it would be a good bike for what you describe.

Just be aware that a KLR would probably do the job as well if not better. So unless you are buying into the whole experience, you might be disappointed.

On the other hand, you'd be riding one of the coolest bikes around, but not everybody would understand that.

I like it, but I already have something similar.

+1, what he said.

You do need to be prepared to do some basic wrenching to keep them in tip top order, but things like valves clearances take 20 minutes and require just 2 spanners. Pretty much everything can be done by your basic garage mechanic. I love mine. They are probably better balanced than anything else out there, posibly even more than the later ones.

[bart]

I must admit, I used to think these old beemers were shittas, but after seeing your one Eddieb, I'm quite taken by them. Would seriously consider one as a second bike. I don't think I could live with one as my only bike.

Awesome.

[Eddieb]

would you r80g/s guys say that paralever is a "must have" on these bikes?

No, I believe the paralever gives a slightly nicer ride, less torque twist due to a more modern design, but the 'mono' earlier non Paralever's last longer. The mono's require a change of oil, ~150mls every 50,000k or so, whereas if you believe what you read the shaft internals or bearings or something can wear out and need replacing every 50-100,000km's on the Paralevers.

Mine doesn't have a paralever, i've not ridden a later airhead GS with one to know if I'm missing out on anything but it seems to work just fine. Comparing it to a oilhead GS wouldn't be a fair comparison as so much other stuff is also different.

The monolever is considered to be a stronger unit. It has slightly less suspension travel, but they can be lengthened to compensate. I'd be quite happy if my bike had a monolever. Eddie is correct about the driveshaft. I just had a universal replaced on mine. However, the paralever bikes also have better front forks, so I guess the suspension is better while it works. The earlier bikes are lighter. Sorry, just rambling what pops to my mind.

The real beauty is that they are really easy to work on. I cringe when I have to service my wife's F650GS.

i've got an 1150Gs and i would have called it gutless when i 1st got it, but you have to train it to go better ie; if you ride it like a nana it resonds like one but if you give it hand fulls on regular basis it gets along very nicely as the guys at DAS will tell you :laugh:

But when I ride the R65 it doesn't feel like a BMW - it is some other sort of pushrod 2 valve 650 twin.It loves to rev and flicks through corners like a bike built in a country that didn't lose WWII.

I am interested,but not ultra keen on it.....

[Kokopelli]

The buy now price seems a little high, considering the seemingly unknown history. However, condition is more important than mileage and you can't really tell without looking at the bike in person. Maybe one of the Nelson boys can go and have a look at it for you.

You should also see if you can get a ride on an airhead somewhere. You may not like it. The motor makes a lot of mechanical noises and they are not very fast.

The brakes are for slowing the bike down a bit, so you have a chance to dig in your heels, should you wish to come to a complete stop.

He's had a local offer. I might need to bleed the brakes before hand though as they are getting a bit soft even for a G/S, unless I go down the local boat shop and grab a chain and anchor to throw off the back.

Better do the valves clearances as well, it's been 10,000km and I thought I had lots of change in my pocket the other day, till I realised the bike was running :)

i have ridden r100rs .....
i excpect lots of rise and fall,torque twist in neutral,leisurely accelleration,relatively good in gear accelleration.
praps i better ride another one first.

I really enjoy the R80GS for these sort of rides, Stephen. However, I am not sure if I could live with it as my only bike. I'd be forever changing tyres. The 1150 and the R80 compliment each other well.

Alex, the way to get round changing tyres is to get another set of wheels then the changing is quick. Not cheap :devil2: but it is quick.

Just want to let you know that I've purchased an Etrex Legend CX, previous comments regarding GPS users therefore no longer apply :dodge:.

The stock front end is marginal, but I guess it keeps me from becoming too brave. Any holes, and it's slow in and slow out for me.

[Phreaky Phil]

Noticed the stock airhead front end on there :headbang:
In a moment of weakness I decided to sell my Airhead (Preparing for Canada/Alaska trip). I pulled the front end off & sold it to Vege. I have since come to my senses and couldnt bare to part with the bike so it now has a rebuilt stock front end. They're a very rigid set of forks as they have a 25mm dia axle and a fork brace. Damping needs altering. You can get a big bucks cartrigde fork kit for them. Also need a bigger brake !!
