Hi all,
My 1990 R100 GS PD was 1 of only 2 BMW airheads having taken part in this (out of 115 bikes). Stock bike (apart from twin plugs and Hagon shock) but the old girl kept going, the only limitation being the rider (ie me) due to lack of offroad skills and general fitness. I did the BMW offroad skill course level 1 and 2 in the weeks before going but it is one thing to muck around on someone else's bike and another to do it with your own! The weight of the bike did not help but its power and torque saved the day many times. I've owned the bike since new and I want to keep as original as possible, although I'm making modifications for next year to try and reduce weight a bit (all can be reversed to stock).
Anyhow, I posted some videos on youtube for those interested.
I hope you enjoy it.
