Oil and Water - BMW R1200GS Comparison

If the GS was not just outside of my budget, it might tempt me to a Bavarian bike, especially given the advancements in the series. Given its massive scale, I would be more likely to hack a GSA with a sidecar and drag passengers along on my adventures.

In our opinion, there’s really no better way to compare two things, than to put them side by side. It’s an excellent opportunity to observe obvious differences and to note the things they have in common. So when BMW introduced their new water-cooled R1200GS motorcycle, naturally we wanted to compare the new bike with the one it would be replacing, our much loved 2011 R1200GS. For the comparison test we headed south to the lonely roads and back country byways of Utah to spend a week riding the bikes both on and off-road. There was only one rule for the week-long comparison, we had to switch bikes each time we filled the gas tank.

Ranchero

A nice Ford Ranchero, clean and simple the way I like classic customs. Don't fuck with the lines.
