Additional headlights.
Like the former model, the new R 1200 GS Adventure is available
with additional headlights fitted on the tank protection hoop.
These are compact, yet high-power items, increasing visibility for
the rider but also making the machine easier to see on the
road.
On-board computer.
An optional on-board computer enhancing the functions and
features of the Info-Flatscreen fitted as standard serves as a very
practical companion on trips both long and short. The computer
presents the outside temperature, the range remaining on the fuel
still left in the tank, the rider’s average fuel consumption
and average speed. In addition, the on-board computer
warns the rider of an inadequate oil level as well as the risk of
ice once the outside temperature drops to 3 °C or
lower.
Off-road tyres.
The R 1200 GS Adventure can be specified with off-road tyres
directly from the factory. These extra-tough, heavy-duty
Continental TKC 80 tyres (with top speed limited to 160 km/h)
ensure positive traction on sand, gravel, rocks or mud, and are
fitted as a low-cost option straight at the factory.

New aluminium luggage system.
The all-new luggage system comprises aluminium cases and
stainless-steel case supports as well as an aluminium topcase
complete with a topcase holder to be assembled on the
stainless-steel luggage rack featured as standard. Both the cases
and topcase are watertight, and come additionally with watertight
inner bags as an option.
Together, the cases offer a volume of 79-litres, with the
topcase offering an additional 33-litres.
The case lids come complete with two locks on each cover, the
lock not opened in each case serving as the hinge for the lid to
provide an appropriate opening and closing function. Opening both
locks, on the other hand, the rider is able to take off the lids
completely for particularly easy access when required.
Another option is to have just one key for both the cases and
the ignition in the interest of enhanced flexibility and ease of
use.
Both the aluminium cases and the topcase come with additional
lashing points for further luggage. In all, the luggage system is
able to take up a load of 25 kilos, allowing the rider to travel
smoothly and safely at speeds of up to 180 km/h.
