Overview
Following its appearance on the R 1200 GS last year, the Triple Black finish is now adorning the Adventure model; as it did in 2011. A substantial piece of road and trekking with 3 chocolate flavors? So little, so almost, but let black take care of defining its three tones. Blackstorm metallic covers the central part of the tank and the upper mudguard. For the side panels, a Dark Slate metallic coexists with a large GS logo. The third dark lieutenant takes care of the engine, the gearbox and swingarm. An Agate Grey was chosen for the frame tubes. Briefly, a beautiful but simple nocturnal color scheme for this recurring outfit of the BMW 1200 GS. The only true originality is located on the passenger seat, adorned with a raised GS symbol.
Like a good portion of the range’s flat twins, this R 1200 GS benefits from the 2017 improvements. A revised transmission and Euro4 compliance. Enough to fully enjoy the travel possibilities of this majestic machine. Equipped with a popular and powerful twin-cylinder engine, an electronic armada, and capabilities renowned by globe-trotters, the Adventure counts its competitors on one hand. And with each generation, it can afford to look them down with confidence.
