The R3B, seen from within a tent
A bit altered R1100GS

I did own (and still own two) several BMW Gsses. It's simply the best allround motorcycle you can find.
Here are portraits of the GSses, and experiences with tires.

the BMW R1200GS

Because the Roadrunner was getting old (300.000 km on the clocks), and especially because I thought the R1200 would be perfect, I decided to buy a BMW R1200GS. On paper, it seemd the ideal bike. Here my review.

the Roadrunner

The roadrunner is my third R1100GS, and I still own and ride it.
It has almost 300.000 kilometers under its wheels, and it's still alive and kicking. The roadrunner proves that the R1100GS is just the best motorcycle overall imaginable.

the R3B

The R3B is the first R1100GS that I owned. It is not original at all: I once crashed it, it was declared total-loss, and it got a new life under the hands of Ernst.
It has become a very special BMW R1100GS.

the Pink Panther

The Pink Panther is my second R1100GS, an anniversary model.
We didn't relate: it was much slower than my first, and the gearbox kept giving false neutrals.
I traded it in (for a Bimota Mantra) after half a year.

R1100GS tires

I did not use every tire which is available for the R1100GS, but have experience with some of them. Here is a review of the tires I used.
