After 25+ years of owning Kawasaki's (ZX-11, 2 x ZX-12, Concours 14), I finally plunked down on a 2015 BMW 1200 GS Adventure. I have ridden it 800 miles or so,, and already can say this bike corners better than any other bike I have ever ridden.
The whole ambience of the 1050 is a lot less daunting than the bigger KTMs. Underneath it all the 1050 Adventure still sports an LC8 engine housed by fundamentally the same chassis found on the ābiggerā, KTM 1190 Adventure model. It āstands alongside its siblingsā KTMās blurb will tell, but there-in lies a small problem with the 1050
It reduces weight by over 38% from the stock system, improving handling on all terrains. The deeper, sportier AkrapoviÄ tone is seamlessly matched to the torquey twin-cylinder engine. It is easy to fit, with no remapping needed, EC- and ECE-compliant, and fully compatible with BMW's side cases. Unit.
