30
YEARS
GS
SPECIAL

With
the
“30
Years
GS”
special
models,
BMW
celebrates
the
anniversary
of
the
most
successful
model
series
ever.
In
its
mature
modern
state,
a
“GS”
is
more
up-to-date
now
than
ever
before.
30
years
ago
in
1980,
a
new
type
of
motorcycling
came
into
being
which
merged
a
number
of
different
trends
to
create
a
completely
new
and
unique
concept:
a
supreme
style
of
travel,
both
on
the
road
and
on
rough
ground,
suitable
for
both
sports
and
touring,
with
a
powerful
engine
and
a
robust
structure.
The
GS
class
was
born
with
the
original
forebear
of
the
series,
the
R
80
G/S
-
the
G
standing
for
the
German
word
“Gelände”
(terrain)
and
the
S
for
“Sport”
and
later
for
“Strasse”
(road).
From
the
very
beginning
white/blue/red
was
the
colour
code
for
a
GS
–
derived
from
the
company’s
motor
racing
colours.
In
addition
to
the
combination
of
Alpine
White
and
the
three-colour
decor,
the
Adventure
model
also
offers
another
special
feature:
it
is
the
only
one
to
be
fitted
with
a
two-colour
red
and
black
seat
-
which
sets
it
clearly
apart
from
the
other
three
30
Years
special
models
in
visual
terms.
The
R
1200
GS
Adventure
is
the
legitimate
successor
to
the
R
80
G/S
Paris-Dakar,
which
advanced
the
GS
idea
as
long
ago
as
1984,
increasing
its
long-distance
capabilities
significantly
due
to
the
enlarged
fuel
tank.
Today
the
“Adventure”
represents
the
crowning
glory
of
the
GS
idea
for
all
those
motorcyclists
who
simple
can’t
travel
far
enough.
The
special
model
highlights
this
idea
with
its
extended
range
of
standard
equipment:
the
larger
upper
shell
for
hand
protectors
and
the
robust
underbody
protection
in
aluminium
clearly
state
where
the
Adventure
is
heading:
everywhere!
The
same
applies
to
the
R
1200
GS
Adventure
“30
Years
GS”:
it’s
a
collector’s
item.
But
not
until
it
gets
old.
And
whether
or
not
that
will
ever
happen
is
probably
difficult
to
say
even
after
an
extended
test
drive
on
this
indestructible
machine
...
But
do
your
dealer
one
favour:
don’t
make
him
wait
too
long
-
either
for
your
test
drive
or
for
your
return
from
it.
