The 2018 BMW R1200GS Adventure is bringing all the updates enjoyed by the 2017 R1200GS to conform to Euro4 regulations and adding a whole host of optional extras to the 2018 BMW R1200GS Adventure.

The biggest news for the R1200GS Adventure is the new optional equipment available:

  • Connectivity

  • Emergency Call

  • LED auxiliary headlights in new designPro riding modes with additional “Dynamic” and “Enduro” riding modes. Using a coding plug, the “Dynamic” mode is changed to “Dynamic Pro” and the “Enduro” mode to “Enduro Pro” mode. The Pro riding mode continues to feature ABS Pro, dynamic brake light, Dynamic Traction Control (DTC) as well as Hill Start Control (HSC)

  • Dynamic ESA next generation with automatic damping adjustment and automatic self-levelling function

  • Keyless Ride as a new component of the Touring Package

  • Shift Assistant Pro as a new component of the Dynamic Package

  • Passenger package with standard windshield and standard seat

  • High Rallye seat

  • LED auxiliary headlights in new design

The Connectivity option with its full-color TFT 6.5 in/165 mm display is BMW Motorrad’s highlight of 2018 optional features. Connectivity was designed to provide fast and clear information for the rider with the least possible distraction from what is happening on the road, BMW reports.

The rider can access motorcycle and connectivity functions quickly with a great level of comfort thanks to the advanced BMW Motorrad multi-controller and the integrated approach. In addition, the new TFT display combines the familiar “classic” display of data such as rpm and speed with new technology that provides an enormous range of features, BMW says.

For the first time on the Adventure an Emergency Call system is also now available.
