Latte anyone?

Latte anyone?

New bus, first German I’ve rode apart from a one night stand with a little frauline in Munich in 2002. :ninja:


Bmw r1200gs…


First impressions a month in are impressive.

Big mile muncher, comfy as hell, very good on fuel lots of online info, parts, service items etc.

Absolutely brilliant brakes, light years ahead of most.


Very easy to work on but those fucking torx bits are a pain in the hole.

Parts are a plenty spurious are cheap BMW are not.


Lots of very specific oils/fluids most a little more expensive than usual.

Specific gearbox and final drive oil.

Dot 4 for the brakes but silly expensive clutch fluid.


Especially for Gixer:lbhbh:
