Paris-Dakar on a BMW R1200 GS Adventure
Loading...
Uploaded by NomadGSA on Jan 21, 2008
Life changing journey from London to The Gambia and back by bike. 7,800 miles. 2 broken ribs and a twisted ankle. I think I should stick to racing on the track or road.

AWESOME!! Must have been very fun trip, pics are everything I was hoping to find on here.. Would love to plan the same. We have ridden in several 250 -1k races here in the U.S. and Mexico.. looking for a street legal two wheeler to take through 7800 mile -epic adventure. Probably a 650, looking at a Harley new off road model.
Do you have contact info to share, thanks for posting your trip!

i just added the dakar to my bucket list

Sorry to say that, but you can ride there with every bike with right wheels and height. It must be stable only without any electronic shit. Meanwhile i would prefer the older bikes for this. The newer the more filigree the bikes are.

BMW GS Adventure
The Best bike for round the world Adventure - nothing comes close - sure there are bikes lighter - faster - more bhp - but for true adventure riding in comfort - nothing comes close - end of ...... :-)

If you buy into that hype, sure. They are overpriced, overweight. Less about the bike, more about the trip/rider.

@skater1on1 ......too true - expensive - especially when you start to add the bits!!!! Heavy? - For sure - old tech ... The trip was awesome, you can do that - as most did on a 650 no problem ... and more fun when it got tough .... I would given the chance and the money to do it again and again .... we have all got at least one of these rides in us .... do it!
