I don"t know about a trap for farkel needy, but it is enticing. I mean guys pay 2K+ for full exhaust systems to gain 2HP, and to their ear, better sound.

That said with the issues that guys seem to be having, although a software update is supposed to be helping that issue, it does not interest me in the least Just as I could do without keyless start, I can do without the TFT.

BMW Motorrad is set to introduce a 6.5 inch TFT display instrument cluster that connects with smartphones and BMW’s helmet communication system via Bluetooth. The TFT not only displays basic data such as rpm and speed, but also a range of other features.

Media playback and phone functions can also be accessed using the TFT display or with a helmet equipped with BMW’s helmet communication system. The rider can listen to music while on the go. Apart from that, he can also access his smartphone contacts on the TFT display. All of these functions can be used without an extra app.

If you want extra information, BMW also offers an app, called the BMW Motorrad Connected. The app records riding routes or displays ride statistics and information. It can be connected to the TFT and it displays navigation like precise turn indications including lane guiding and your last destination point. The display is useful in more ways than one; it uses an integrated on-board computer that displays ride-relevant information. It displays information like the tyre pressure setting for both tyres. Not only are the actual tyre pressure settings displayed but also the recommended tyre pressures in the respective situation.

BMW plans to launch the Connectivity option on the R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure by September, with other models in tow. India will get this option when BMW Motorrad India launches the updated versions of the bikes here. Both the R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure are available in India and are priced at Rs 16.13 lakh and Rs 17.75 lakh respectively.

There was a point on my ride of the 2018 BMW R1200GS Adventure when the thought struck me that retro motorcycles will soon be those that don’t come with an inbuilt subscription to Netflix. Maybe the future definition of ‘retro’ will be a motorcycle that doesn’t allow you to call up season three of House of Cards from an onboard speech recognition system whilst (in the case of adventure bikes) sipping Latte with your hologram pillion in a Starbucks car park.

For example, I reckon that ABS and, more recently, lean-sensitive ABS are both huge advancements in rider aids and safety. And yet there are still some who’d rather throw an anchor off the rear as a way of cutting speed on a motorcycle. As it happens, I’ve been harbouring a few corking dogmas myself.

On a similar note, I’ve resisted helmet based comms for philosophical arguments that were never really convincing, and have now totally fallen apart having tested a system at the launch of the 2018 BMW R1200GS Adventure.

Essentially, the 2018 BMW R1200GS Adventure is the same as the old GSA with a few colour and styling enhancements. The big story concerns the ever-growing rack of optional upgrades which are now available to threaten the thickness of your wallet. The undoubted highlight of which is a new TFT full-colour multimedia dash which includes phone and helmet Bluetooth connections (Netflix will be a 2019 option), all operated by the bar-mounted buttons and the control wheel.

More about the upgrades later, let’s just stay with the BMW R1200GS Adventure for a second. Whatever your views are on BMW and the GS range, there can be no argument about their continued popularity.

In a year where every sector, with the notable exception of adventure bikes, has seen a drop in sales, the two best-selling bikes in the UK, the R1200GS at number one and the R1200GS Adventure at number two, have experienced increased sales. A phenomenal achievement by any measure.

There is a very valid reason for this, and as we ride into 2018 I reckon we’re way past the Long Way Round or Long Way Down effect. They are, quite simply, excellent motorcycles, and that was only reinforced during the press launch riding the mountains and valleys of Mid Wales on the day storm Aileen hit land.

There are faster bikes, there are better off-road bikes, there are more comfortable pillion carriers and there are more precise handling bikes, but when it comes to a motorcycle that can do it all with a high level of competency, there are few, if any, that can match the GS or GSA.

With an all-new GSA surely under development in a hidden chamber deep in the Bavarian Alps, the current GSA is in what I suppose we could call the mid-model upgrade phase. For 2018 the prospective buyer will have the choice of an immense range of optional extras, which include dynamic suspension, an ‘Emergency Call’ feature, hill start control, quick shift gear change, keyless ignition and the new integrated TFT colour screen.

Our test ride was aboard the top-spec TE model which came with just about anything and everything you can integrate and bolt on to a BMW R1200GS Adventure. It included all the above and then some.

One of the main things I’m forever raving about when it comes to the BMW R1200GS Adventure is the quality of the electronically adjustable suspension (ESA) which provides an almost magic carpet-like smoothness.

The fact that I could also adjust the settings by pressing a button, rather than pissing about (and I’m choosing my words both carefully and emotionally here) with tools, is reason enough to lobby Parliament for the declaration of a national holiday to celebrate ESA.

The TE came fitted with the new Dynamic ESA, which now means the bike keeps an eye out for the conditions and weight load, and adjusts automatically on the fly. Life, without a hint of hyperbole, doesn’t get any better than this.

The new ‘Emergency Call’ feature is essentially an intelligent, integrated communication tool connected to sensors programmed to detect a crash and then alert the emergency services with your location. It’s not quite that simple, as there is a system and a protocol to follow to eliminate non-emergencies, but I’m sure you get the drift. Perhaps the most useful advancement has been in the previously mentioned connectivity and the new multi-media TFT screen.

Thankfully, it now appears that the days of motorcycle manufacturers scouring bins for discarded Nintendo Game Boy LCD’s to fashion into motorcycle dashboards are over. The new screens, such as that found on the 2018 GSA, are light years ahead of what has been the norm up until this year. The look, clarity and colours are now more reminiscent of a modern tablet rather than a pixilated, monochrome relic of the past. Press the key-less ignition and the screen goes through a short boot-up sequence of graphics, before displaying the stuff you need to know to ride a motorcycle. From there it’s a full-on mission control unit which contains a whole raft of useful features, including a nifty adaptive red-line indicator based on engine temperature during the warm up phase.

The app also provides for a fairly basic navigation system, which is sure to improve as time goes by and undoubtedly replace the need for a separate GPS. Right now, it is not as user-friendly or functional as the GPS system already fitted on the BMW R1200GS Adventure.

The information available on the TFT is legion, and scrolling through the various screens and settings is simple and intuitive. I’ve little doubt that even the most resolute of anchor throwers will be converts by the time they’ve left the showroom. The new TFT costs £595 but in my opinion, is one of those features you’ll regret not buying, especially so when it comes to re-sale value of the GSA.

It’s been at least a couple of years since I’ve spent any meaningful time aboard a BMW R1200GS Adventure, and in some ways, I’d forgotten what a superb all round package the bike is. Given the addition of the new features, it’s an even more tempting proposition and I can’t think of a reason why it’ll not be pushing at the top of the sales charts once again in 2018.

BMW Motorrad announced several updates for its line-up. The revised R1200GS will receive a full TFT dashboard and a Rallye pack which includes a BMW-Motorsport inspired color theme, rallye seat and an enduro-special short wind-screen. Moreover, besides the Enduro Pro riding mode, the new Adventure will feature a Dynamic Pro Riding mode.

The 6.5 inch full color TFT Display will be accessed through the handlebar controller and can be connected to your smartphone providing navigation. The new Connectivity option will be launched in autumn 2017 on the R 1200 GS and R 1200 GS Adventure. Further models will follow.

BMW Motorrad is now expanding its individualisation range with BMW Motorrad Spezial and is offering distinctive-design, performance and value enhancing as well as exclusive customisation options ex works. For the start the new offer includes special paint finishes for selected models through high-quality milled parts packages to forged wheels. BMW also announced new colors for most of its models.
