BMW R 1200 GS Adventure crash!

[rockypyro1490]

i think that guy wanted to make you feel miserable for crashing it

[Hoshibandit]

RIP GS. Sorry, but a stupid bike rescue they have done

[lawbag]

Why didn't they just set it on fire? LMAO!

[djingi]

why didn't you just call a truck with a small crane I would had lift that baby without a scratch! Just straight up, would had saved you a lot of work!

[rubengo1000]

de no creer.. see you ruben from argentina

[OnkelSnus]

the music is by the norwegian composer Edvard Grieg (1843 - 1907) This "I Dovregubbens Hall" is from Griegs opus 46, from 1888. "I Dovregubbens Hall" = " In the hall og the mountain king". From Peer Gynt.

[dakaraabbccdd]

gorgeous bike!

[sheepmaster1987]

OH MY GOSH! i'm so not a bmw guy... but leave that poor bike alone and don't abuse it like that!

[GizmoCode]

hurts me so much to see this...

[WhenIHadHair]

That did make me laugh. Had to fast forward over all the soft porn just to watch it being dragged off the wall. FAF

[Maximaltuner]

omg did the man think that it weight 10 kg?

oh no

[titoeb1]

que pena de moto,colega!!!

[NotAnotherClinton]

So... you're not charging me for this right?

[thegreencomposter]

what a brutal recovery if it wasn't fucked before it is now, on both sides

[alejacoportis]

ma vaffanculo ma chi è il tipo del carratrezzi un macellaio che traina una vacca?? cristo santo almeno sollevarla con un braccio meccanico no è?? è complimenti a te,, pilota.. capisco che hai fatto il dritto e ok.. foruna nn ti sei fatto nulla.. ma il tipo del camion l'avrei preso a calci nel culo e nn sarei stato a riprendere la gara del tiro alla moto

[cometazo]

Don't want to say to much! This bike is for real MAN!!! NOT PANTSIS!!!

[griso64]

povera moto....si sentiva brutta ed ha tentato il suicidio......come la capisco

[dimgl19]

oh mein gott... was für ne peinliche nummer!

OH MEIN GOTT!!!

[roytek94]

tu tetesco ya?

[Jonniespeed]

The tow truck worker should change professions, he doesn't even know what the bloody hell he's doing. Let go of your cell phone and roll the bike dumb ass! I hope you got a new bike mate.

[floryka]

WTF is wrong whit this guys? There was from BMW recovery ?

[dudejb46]

omg what a cunt is tht recovery guy ida lamped him treating my bike like that regardless of the current condition!!!!

[Roostic]

el de la grua és un inútil....y el propietario también. Mira que permitir que te arrastren así la moto.......

[anzac2404]

I'd bitch-slap that arsehole if he did that to my bike, the lazy f-ck! You're looking at $28k (Aus) being dragged like a dead cow, what a dip-sh-t!!!

How & what caused you to end up like that any way, & how did you come out of it??? As for KTM's, yeah there ok in their own right but after LWR they shut their mouth, & as they should have...but it was great for BMW!

[DarkBlueIght]

Ouch!! Terrible!

[MrJamesmacdonald]

fuck it some more why dont you

[ombra306]

WHAT A JERK OF A TOWER!!

[rokrs8]

Idiotssssss!!!!

[mahid1989]

haha opfa

[LatiTea18]

GS 1200 ADV - expencive parts, powerless and very heavy for off road I drive it for 2 years with 28.000km...

This year I bought KTM 990 ADV and KTM is much better bike for everyting.

[trunyoz]

And that's YOUR opinion.

I had a KTM ADV before the GS ADV, and i don't think like you :-)

[bandguy360]

your mom is heavy and powerless

[ifurita81]

From what i have heard there is one disadvantage with KTM thou. Much more maintenance then the BMW.

But i could be wrong it is just what is said.

Whats your oppinion on the comfort? You think you ride as comfortable on the KTM as on the BMW? Id say for the long rides the BMW beat the KTM by far.

[taylorsantajulia]

@ifurita81 Yup, the BMW is more comfortable on long hauls, but if you're looking for adventure, on-off experience and manouverability, good suspension, trusty gripping and overall fun, the KTM is by FAR the better bike. If you just want to cruise along on tarmac, then go for the BMW, no uqestion about it. If you want true riding thrills, there's no beating the KTM! You'll know when you sit on that beast and open up the throttle...

[systemaudio57]

Piss ants man what the hell have they done

[dnlguzzi]

LOL how to destroy your 1200 gs....

[lecapcoza]

The bike's a writeoff. Why waste breath and sweat to recover it without causing further damage? If it would not be for the environment you could have stuck a rug into the filler cap and burned it.

[barryb83110]

For anyone interested, my friends have pulled light aircraft, snowmobiles and hammered motorcycles out of worse situations than that by laying the bike on an old car hood and towing the hood up the mountain like a sled. The hood takes the beating, not the machine. It doesn't hurt to save a buck, and old car hoods are in every town junk yard.

[lynxxlynxx]

LMFGO..... it has to tires for rolling

[corradosanse]

Con quel cancello a duer ruote è facile andare in terra! E poi il carro attrezzi è stato troppo "delicato2 nel tirarla fuori!!! 8-O

[FlandriaKid]

bloody hell...

[onesaintsfan]

Remind me NEVER to call this guy to tow my bike out! OUCH

[hathganus]

I have seen dead cows pulled off the road with more respect than this! This was really sad to watch.

[marco03111967]

What the hell happened ??? How can they be so stupid to do that with this kind of motorcycle ???? So rude and stupid ...

[Bite0]

lol nothing like dragging a 25,000 dollar bike up the bank and then up the ramp. My wife saw that and she he should be spanked, (recovery guy) lol

[Lousypenguin]

That's a sad day :(

[davyjohn23]

sorta shows how much the recovery guy cares about the bike, dragging it up the bank, that looked painful, poor bike :-)

[ProfMoose]

"...poor bike"

Glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. If that were my bike I'd be jumping up and down on the recovery mans head. No respect whatsoever! That bike is someones pride & joy. Really wound up now...

[eddievalleytrailer]

Were they TRYING to tear it up??? The recovery driver did more damage than the crash!!

[pireus48]

16.000 euro......puffff!!!

[hathganus]

Ment too give a you a thumbs Up! , tried to change it, but would not let me. Sorry!!!!

[culnara]

At Least you were ok, Bikes can be replaced ;)

[ThaBeatDontStop]

Holy Smokes ! Those engines sticking out must have taken a smashing from the rescue attempt

[Vikernes67]

c'est bien fait pour les BM qui croient qui peuvent faire des motos alors que c'est pas du tout leur truc

[cwjolly69]

i like how thay dont even try to stand it up

[kayadoronua]

you all rıght. why somebody drag a bike? ı cant understant.

[GEERUP]

Thanks for this video. I hope I can avoid rock walls my self Godspeed

[gtp24au]

Sad to see you landed on the rock wall and I can only guess the only words from you at the time :)

To break the paralever, it must have landed real hard. She's a write off :(

However, I dont know how anyone could have expected the recovery guy to get the bike off the wall, get it up the embankment and hold the bike upright all at the same time! It's painful to watch the bike being dragged, I had a similar recovery guy years ago. I'm glad you're still around to share with us.

[longpolodownlane]

fucking hell the guy like threw it on the ground.

and y do they all ways just pull them along the ground. man take care of them

[zypp33]

It wasn't your bike?? It was probably a Right Off as soon as you parked it on the wall ,at least your'e still alive. They are incredible bikes and can keep up with most people on sportsbikes,Ive had 2 and the best was the absolute basic spec version.

[ohmkumi]

ง่าว

[Brandtalones]

Hey Tor, how about laying it out for us? At least spin the tale of the major wipeout on a big beautiful machine...

What, sun in your eyes...?

[fruithero]

What was that guy doing!!! I hope you didnt kill him.

[alexanderinrosso]

che guevara the best

[ovajuan]

pardon my bad English. but Crane does not seek the best bmw. should not take it out with the wheels down. in an upright position? or take care Maas? I perish very wild.

[mrmynx]

The friggin tow truck dude could have at the least held the GD bike upright!!!Did you guys pay him to scratch it up to rat shit!!

[sergillo3x]

complete asshole the puller

[theshipcairns]

how did the accident happen? Nice bike tho b4 the prang

[bhmavrik]

The bike had a better chance with that wall than the BMW recovery guy! Sheesh!

[ds65x]

Should have got a uly

[PaulFZS]

You are a english man, so I believe you can crash that beatiful motorccle...

[motocruces]

Al de la grua habría que haberle dado una paliza por como trata la moto. Yo trabajé de gruista y JAMÁS a una moto accidentada le generé más daños de los que ya tenía.

[extramural]

If its insured then any damge will be fixed anyway. Those bikes weigh a lot and unless you hired a crane the bike would not load itself. How the hell did the bike end up there in the first place? The road looks dead straight.

I cringed too when i saw the bike being dragged. Yes I own a GSA and they are awesome bikes :)

[exhondafan]

I wanted to break that tow truck drivers legs.I'm pretty sure thats NOT how its done!

[revolt63]

Isnt that hilarious,draggin it the whole way!

[jodase01]

ouch, owned

[dougbprice]

am i the only one who sees thatfurther damage is donr to a bike by DRAGGING it off of a rock fence then just fglipping it over on its side ans then dragging it onto a flatbed? That was the worst recovery i have ever seen and the owner just films it!

[raptorama]

There are no owners here. The closest to the owner would be BMW's own recovery firm as seen in the film. This recovery was done on a dangerous road with Police guiding and helping with the traffic management. It would have been no time to do it differently. Particularly as the paralever was broken! If it hadn't been broken the GS could have been ridden back onto the road.

[fahir37]

Paraları kolay kazandığınız belli canım motor böylemi yüklenir çekiçiye şerefsizler..

[eddiekayak]

Guys I have the r1200gs and it 's a perfect machine!!

Only if you ride it you can understand me...

They are idiots, this is not the right way to pull out the bike... watch how they put the bike on the truck, the engine was on the road...

[airwater9]

Try the KTM 950 Adventure - it is even better than the GS if you go off road much. It won the Dakar in 2002 and 2003!

[jonataseuuk]

but this is 2008 mate bmw is a tool ktm is a toy "MCN"

[airwaterdirt]

guys i am from Greece and in few days i will own this dream machine. until then i am bitting my nails and driving my girlfriend crazy.catch you later maybe with a crazy off road video in one of our many islands

[Johnnytotal]

I love Youtube and the people that share their videos. The bike is a must, 144 000 skr. is alot of money. Still with it's equipment I just got to have it. Thanks for the video.

[manugrancanaria]

que pena , mi pobre moto ,,, es la moto de mis sueños lo que como soy un enano de 180 no me atrevo a comprarmela

[stuka72]

Yo mido 1,78 y llevo mi Adventure perfectamente.

[turtlelovesalice]

Nobody wants to know THAT

[Nandez18]

my father's bmw old paris dakar broke two times the final trasmission (cardano). now he owns a buell!

[carguymitch]

Buell's are shit compared to BMW's- and I'm american!

[Sunfire12R]

Buells are what? Are you for real? What's "s**t" is how Harley dealerships treat these amazing bikes! Go ride one and then say something more inteligent!

[ds65x]

I love my 2008 ulysses, I rode the gs it sucked. no character

[StroodlesJnr]

you haven't a clue what your talking about, I have the old 1150gs and its a great bike aswell. I rode the new 1200 and you can go anywhere on it. Its a classy looking machine also, real head turner.

[ThaBeatDontStop]

The Adventure Rocks - no question about it

[uberlax]

Each to their own. I love the R1200GS. Such a nice place to be on a long relaxing ride, but wakes up when you give it a poke to make it serious fun in the twisties. Still a bit big for city riding though, it takes up two bike park slots with the panniers on!

[jodase01]

Buell is shit for sure. BMW are one of the most well engineered bikes ever dude, your dad must treat the BMW really rough.
