Saw this BMW R50/5 in a surgeon's waiting room in Pretoria today. I like it - thought I would share.

I’ve been considering buying a new bike. As a novice though, I thought I would ask the experts for their advice on the pros and cons of the bike, given the considerable purchase price of R99. What say you? Will this be dual-sport capable? Will the GS guys accept me or laugh at me? And what...

My neighbour is emigrating and wants to sell his two bikes - a BMW R1200 RT (71 000km, R50 000) and a Yamaha XT 660 Z (36 000km, R 65 000). He's not particularly interested in showing the bikes to 100's of tyre-kickers, and would probably prefer to sell to a dealer. Who's the best dealer to...

Hello dogs I need a new topbox for my 1200GS.  I currently have a BMW Vario box, and my helmet barely fits into that. Ironic - BMW topboxes being too small for BMW helmets ... Anyway, I'm considering the Motorradical topbox, which my helmet fits into nicely, and it suits my budget as well...

I’m considering getting a pair of winglets for my 2010 R1200GS.  At national highway speeds, I find there’s quite a bit of wind buffeting on my sides, and thought the winglets would sort this out. It is worth it to install?  Or should I rather just consider an aftermarket screen instead of the...

I'm a newbie, and about to buy my first bike - a R1200GS. I've seen a bike that I like a lot - it's a  lovely low-kilometre early 2010 model with 77kW.  I know the bikes were upgraded later in 2010 to 81kW.  Should I have any reservations (in terms of reliability and resale value) about buying...
