BMW’s 2021 flagships are an incredible mix of high-tech performance wrapped in a salute to 40 years of the world’s premier dualsporter.
The 40 Year Anniversary 1250 is a technically excellent bike with a retro look which salutes its heritage.
Whether or not you’re a ‘BMW person’, there’s no denying the GS has had a huge impact on not only dualsporting and the emerging adventure-riding sector, but on motorcycling in general. While the rest of the world was frothing at the split over bikes with an increasingly narrow focus on sports performance or off-road ability, BMW embraced the idea of a bike which would be a capable all-rounder. The GS, which, to quote BMW, ‘…has proudly stood for limitless adventure on and off the road since 1980’, has gained continually greater acceptance over the years and now stands proudly at the pinnacle of the adventure category – a category BMW might be justified in claiming to have pursued and defined.
