The machine was made available to us by Bergmann & Söhne in Neumünster. If you really want to experience something, go there and dare to take a test drive. Every test driver is guaranteed not to forget them.
Cheap here is nothing
All this also offers the normal GS. Also the extensive chassis with its complete programs and adjustment possibilities. Do you really need the additional equipment of the adventure? Certainly not, but you might want them. Our fully equipped copy put a lot of money on it at the list price of around 18,000 euros, so that no less than 23,000 euros would eventually be due. Aua.
In the end, however, it could also be argued that in these regions it is no longer important. So, with an additional price of 1,500 euros for the adventure, it remains ultimately a question of taste. And, as you know, everyone is responsible for that themselves.
The test bike was provided to us by Bergmann & Söhne in Pinneberg near Hamburg.
