nick , does 12GS Adventure come with cigarette power adapter for gps or do you have to install it separately ?

@DesmosediciAlice

The GSA comes with a factory plug in for the BMW gps that the dealer sells which works perfect because you plug it in no nothing. You also have the socket next to the seat which is standard on both GS and GSA. Ill save you time.money and headaches if you take my advice and go with the BMW GPS. Its made for all weather, factory mount took 2 mins to install. Aftermarket gps's can vibrate to shit and break...Have heard a few stories!

@nicktacular06 nick i do believe you : ) so what do i do just "plug and play" ? no cable wiring, right ?

@DesmosediciAlice

Exactly! Mount the GPS where you want, the GSA comes with the bar already (Where mine is) then look under the headlight area and theres a water tight plug already stock wired. Takes literally 2 mins to install. The BMW gps cable is just long enough for you to run the wire so you dont even have to zip tie loose cables or anything, its just one wire with male end that plugs right it so its simple : )

Buon Giorno Signore Pagano, thank you for your reply on my recent comment.Seems that your bike is still registered in Bavaria Germany(4:41)???. Which Bavarian like County is it? It has a mile reading odo (beside my thought it would be a Euro Model, maybe Great Britain Specification?).

You wrote you fetched it at the factory. Did you have the chance to make a guided tour through that mill? Have you shipped it from there, or have you made it on your own, like the "Long Way Round" Guys? ;-)

@Yecora26

Ciao bona sera! I used my friends address in Bayern because he was military. when I shipped to America I had to switch the odo to MPH. I wish I could do Long way Round! One day I will : ) I did all E.U then alaska to Panama and back to San Diego California. I did the tour of BMW Welt auto factory. I miss Europe very much : ( Its better than "America" I lived in Toscana Italia and loved it. I will save up for a year visa so I can eventually marry a girl so i can stay forever!

@dlanz197 Hi, I think most of that guard, guard, guard Accessories is made by the german Touratech Company. Just Google Touratech. Don`t forget, as your account losses money, the bike will increase in weight simultaneously...

Youre telling me mate lol! This bike is already too heavy! So far the only heavy noticeable mods are the pannier rack and crash bars. I installed a lithium battery,Ohlin shocks, straight pipe with carbon fiber exhaust eliminating the CAT and removed the smog canister (USA models) So actually weighing it at work the bike is now LIGHTER than stock with all the shit on it lol! Engine mod is Power Commander and K&N air filter for highway use, stock filter for dusty roads. =)

[colin61314]

Out of curiosity, how much weight do you think you've added to the bike with these mods? Performance must be suffering, surely? Any engine mods? Mine is stock and I can't imagine adding more weight. If anything i'd consider mods to reduce it. Your bike does look good tho...if a little madmaxish. The carbon BMW logo is wicked.
