MW driving has never been a particularly cheap pleasure. Although many specimens are around 20 years old and have collected correspondingly many kilometers, these GS are still not a bargain. It must be at least 5,000 euros, top-maintained specimens like our test bike like to scratch at the five-digit. You can understand this: The BMW R 1150 GS, if you don't catch a rocked-out model, is an almost ideal companion for the very big tour.
If you can do without cornering and agility, the GS is the ideal travel moped, where the road can be three steps below perfect.
As I said, a buddy for the good and the bad days.
Cruisers there are many, all the Harleys, Indians and even the Gold Wing can not go unnamed. The Rocket is a very peculiar reinterpretation of the class. It is modern and at the same time stuck to old values, delivering records without offensively putting them in the shop window.
It's just there. Like single malt whisky – it could be without, but what?
The test bike was provided to us by Q-Bike in Hamburg.
