In 1995, the German motorcycle manufacturer released the BMW R100 GS, a dual-sports motorcycle built for over eight years. Although the bike was an all-road model, it performed well on paved roads but not so well in off-road situations.
The BMW R100 GS was a dual-sports motorcycle that debuted in 1987 as one of the world's largest and fastest machines at the time. The 1995 model came in the same shape and form as the previous one, providing the same specifications without any significant modifications.
The motorcycle's visual department was characterized by standard features, such as a high-mounted front fender, a small cowl with a wind deflector on the front, a round headlight, a one-piece dual seat with a passenger grab handle, a luggage rack, a center stand, and wire-spoke wheels.
All bits and pieces were mounted on a double-loop tubular steel frame, such as a telescopic fork on the front that offered 225 mm of travel and an adjustable paralever rear suspension system with 180 mm wheel travel.
The front wheel was fitted with a 285 mm brake disc and a dual-piston caliper, and the rear wheel packed a 200 mm drum braking unit, offering optimum braking power.
As for power, the 1995 BMW R100 GS took its muscles from a 980cc four-stroke air-cooled twin-cylinder boxer engine mounted underneath the fuel tank, delivering 60 hp with a peak force at 6,500 rpm and 76 Nm (56 lb-ft) torque at 6,500 rpm.
