The BMW R100 GS was an all-around motorcycle manufactured by BMW from 1987 to 1994. It was one of the world's largest and fastest dual-sports motorcycles of the time, performing well on paved roads but not as well on unpaved trails.
In 1993, the German maker released the BMW R100 GS, a powerful all-road motorcycle in its eighth consecutive production year, packing the same specifications as previous models without any major modifications.
The 1993 BMW R100 GS was powered by a 980cc four-stroke air-cooled twin-cylinder boxer engine mounted between its wheels, delivering an output power of 60 hp with a peak force at 6,500 rpm and 76 Nm (56 lb-ft) torque at 6,500 rpm.
As for the visual department, the bike was characterized by standard fittings, like a high-mounted front fender, a small front cowl with a wind deflector, a round headlight, a one-piece dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a luggage rack, a center stand, and wire-spoke wheels.
The motorcycle was manufactured around a double-loop tubular steel frame with a telescopic fork on the front that offered 225 mm of travel and an adjustable paralever rear suspension system with 180 mm wheel travel, offering optimum suspension performance and handling.
As for the braking power, the motorcycle's wheels were fitted with a 285 mm brake disc tied to a dual-piston caliper on the front and a 200 mm drum braking unit mounted on the rear, offering optimum stopping power.
