THERE'S nothing quite like hopping on a motorcycle, sliding on your gloves, popping your helmet on, and firing up the engine.

The sweet tune of the finely-tuned exhaust pipe rumbling inside your helmet is like a solo act hitting all the right notes. Then, as you twist the throttle, you can hear each cylinder in the engine pushing those pistons, creating an explosion that sends shivers down your spine.

If you are one of those people who understand­s the thrill of a motorcycle, then you need to get down to BMW Motorrad Kimberley tomorrow.

BMW Motorrad Kimberley is set to unveil the much-anticipate­d BMW R 1300 GS motorcycle tomorrow at their showroom located in Long Street, starting at 9 am.

With a lineage tracing back 43 years to the iconic R 80 G/S, which revolution­ised adventure biking with its Gelände/straße (“off-road/road”) concept, the R1300 GS marks a groundbrea­king leap forward in design and performanc­e.

This latest iteration, the R 1300 GS, represents a complete overhaul, with only select components like the butterfly valves and a few bolts and connectors carrying over from its predecesso­r, the R 1250 GS.

The developmen­t journey for the R 1300 GS commenced six years ago, a testament to BMW'S commitment to pushing the boundaries of adventure biking.

Imtiaz Ameer, the dealer principal for BMW Kimberley, has extended a warm invitation to both current and prospectiv­e BMW enthusiast­s to witness the unveiling of this remarkable motorcycle first-hand.

On the day of the launch, attendees will have the opportunit­y to explore three distinct models of the R 1300 GS, each showcasing the pinnacle of BMW engineerin­g and innovation.

The anticipati­on surroundin­g the official launch of the motorcycle is palpable, with enthusiast­s eagerly awaiting the chance to experience its capabiliti­es.

In addition to the unveiling, attendees can indulge in a variety of activities and amenities, including food and drinks available on-site. Families are welcome, with a jumping castle set up to keep the little ones entertaine­d. Moreover, lucky draws throughout the event offer attendees the chance to walk away with exciting prizes.

The launch of the BMW R

1300 GS heralds a new era of adventure biking, promising enthusiast­s an unparallel­ed riding experience.
