BMWR1100GS 1997 - 1998

　　The BMW R1100GS was a dual-sports machine made by BMW in 1994 as a successor to the R110GS and R80GS. It continued production until 1999 when it was replaced by the R1150GS.

　　The model was manufactured at BMW's plant in Spandau, Berlin, and came from the factory with a 1,085cc flat-twin boxer engine that was first seen on the BMW R1100RS, released one year earlier. The R1100RS was the first model in the GS family powered by an air/oil-cooled engine instead of an air-cooled one used on BMW motorcycles like the R32 model since 1923.

　　The bike's visual department was complemented by standard features, such as a front mudguard mounted close to the wheel, a long beak mounted underneath the headlight, a windscreen, a two-piece dual seat with a passenger grab handle, an engine plate, and wire-spoke wheels.

　　As for the power figures, the 1997 BMW R1100GS took its muscles from a 1,084cc four-stroke air/oil-cooled twin-cylinder boxer engine that delivered an output power of 80 hp with a peak force at 6,750 rpm and 98 Nm (72 lb-ft) torque at 5,250 rpm.

　　A five-speed manual transmission with a dry single-plate clutch redirected the power generated by the engine to the rear end via a final shaft drive, launching the motorcycle to a top speed of 202 kph (125 mph).
