New BMW GS for 2004, unannounced
Jan 8, 2004
nBMW has a new GS for 2004. No price or availability yet. nRead about it here (onewheeldrive.net). nnSpecs are unofficial, of course. Pretty nice that they shaved over fifteen pounds noff it (depending upon the specs you believe, I’ve read dry weights for 1150’s of n530lb/240kg, so it might be more). Looks like part of the savings was in the nalternator, down 100 to 600 watts. Wheels, front and rear travel and seat height nare unchanged. Displacement, torque and compression are up. ABS might be ndifferent.nnSee here (cmgonline.com) for a little info and photos and photos from UK spy articlehere (smugmug.com).

Maybe I’ll get lucky and it will push down the resale value of the older models enough that I can buy one. Yeah, didn’t think so.
