The team at Touratech-USA is loving the new water-cooled BMW R1200GS and has spent much of the year riding the new water-boxer, and helping people outfit their bikes for adventure. After numerous rides and rallies, we decided to put together this list of essential upgrades to help people prioritize the accessories they might be considering.
While the new R1200GS Adventure model is ready to explore the world direct from the factory, there were a few Touratech accessories and protection parts our CEO, Herbert Schwarz, installed on his water-cooled R1200GS Adventure prior to a three-week expedition in Africa.
