Re: Revamped R100G/S

25 years of G/S:

http://www.motorradonline.de/news/da...-gs.196621.htm


1975: Rüdiger Gutsche, Dolomiten-Rallye-Enthusiast und später G/S-Projektleiter, baut sich eine wendige BMW-Enduro mit 19-Zoll-Vorderrad
und kurzer Schwinge auf.


1977: Im Auftrag von BMW fertigt Laverda einige Prototypen mit leichtem Spezialrahmen, Marzocchi-Telegabel und Zentralfederbein, hier ein Versuchsfahrzeug mit R 60/7-Motor.


Sport-Vorläufer: Schon in den 60ern und 70ern starteten Werks-Enduros bei internationalen Rennen. Im Bild: Herbert Schek bei der Enduro-EM 1978.


Aus der Versuchsabteilung an den Start: Laszlo Peres und sein Prototyp mit 800er-Motor auf R 65-Basis.


Versuchsfahrzeug: der "Rote Teufel", schon mit Einarmschwinge und nach rechts verlegtem Federbein.


1979: Der erste Prototyp der neuen Baureihe wird gezeigt.


1979: Nach einem Jahrzehnt der Zurückhaltung steigt BMW wieder mit einem Werksteam in den Geländesport ein und holt 1979 mit Richard Schalber die Deutsche Meisterschaft.


1980: Nur ein Jahr und neun Monate benötigt das Entwicklungsteam vom Projektstart bis zur offiziellen Pressevorstellung der R 80 G/S am 1. September 1980 im französischen Avignon.


Die R 80 G/S sicherte durch ihren Verkaufserfolg (über 20000 Stück) den Fortbestand von BMW-Motorrad.




1982: Peter Fonda, Kinoheld durch „Easy Rider“, erhält die Urkunde „Der Mann, der sich für Freiheit auf zwei Rädern einsetzte“ und wird Ehrenmitglied des BMW Club Europa e.V.


1984: Weltmeister im Motocross, nun Held bei der Dakar: Gaston Rahier gewinnt auf einer 75 PS starken 1000er. BMW versilbert den Rallye-Erfolg mit dem Sondermodell R 80 G/S „Paris-Dakar“.


Das üppig ausgestattete Sondermodell gewann etliche Vergleichstests.

1985: Der kleine Gaston Rahier kämpft sich erneut mit seinem riesigen HPN-Boxer durch die Wüste und kann seinen Titel bei der Dakar erfolgreich verteidigen.


Rahier unterwegs bei der Paris-Dakar.


1986: Knaller aus Japan. Honda kündigt eine Replika der Paris-Dakar-Siegermaschinen NXR 750 von Cyril Neveu und Gilles Lalay an. Sie kommt jedoch nicht, stattdessen erst 1988 die weniger sportliche Africa Twin.


1989: Sondermodell "Paris-Dakar" der R 100 GS.


Die 800er „Basic“ (bis 1997) war die letzte Zweiventil-GS.


1996: Fertigung der Basic im BMW-Motorradwerk in Berlin.


1996: In Spandau rollt die letzte R 80 GS vom Band, eine R 80 GS Basic. In Südafrika werden ab 1997 noch Restbestände angeboten – als
R 80 GS Kalahari mit 35-Liter-Tank.


1999: Oscar Gallardo bei der Tunesien-Rallye auf der BMW R 1100 GS/RR.


2000: Zum MOTORRAD-Treffen anlässlich des 20. Jubiläums der GS kommen 270 GS-Fahrer: zum Feiern, Klönen und Staunen – etwa über die Maschine des Paris-Dakar-Siegers von 1981/83, Hubert Auriol.

Re: Revamped R100G/S

Wot he said.



(Camping 2 up with 1.9 tents and 3 airbeds. Yes, I continued my personal airbed tradition started at the National last year, and found out during the first night that my airbed wasn't. And I forgot the poles from tent #1. A classic. Good trip, nonetheless.)

(edit: 3 airbeds is wishful thinking, 2 of them very much weren't. One on purpose, the cheap foam roll in the picture, and one very much not on purpose, as said.)

No worries!

But sometimes when I can't sleep I pass the time away by scanning the Web for bike pages.

This time it happened to be Airhead BMW's G/S.
(Which I have a soft spot for )

If I ever change my RD03 for another bike, it will be an R100GS -89 up to -95

Unless Honda comes up with a new Africa Twin!

Are You reading this Mr Takanobu Ito at your office in
1-1, 2-chome, Minami-Aoyama, Minato-ku, Tokyo 107-8556, Japan
Tel: +81-(0)3-3423-1111



Please send us a worthy replacement for the old Africa Twin!

Congratulations to your new title by the way!

Takanobu Ito (left) to assume the duties of Takeo Fukui (right).


These are the "Big Brass" at the Honda Company:


Front row:
Chairman and Representative Director Satoshi Aoki
President and Representative Director Takeo Fukui
Executive Vice President and Representative Director Koichi Kondo

Back row: Senior Managing Directors
Tetsuo Iwamura
Masaaki Kato
Mikio Yoshimi
Atsuyoshi Hyogo
Takanobu Ito
Shigeru Takagi
Akio Hamada

Wonder if any of them are in to Dual Sport Bikes?
