On a totally selfish note do you require delivery sir??;)

Too many Cagiva Elefants, Gran Canyons and Ducatis!
Azzalin SP and various others.

From the BMW range...
the 650/800GS is the LR Discovery - not quite got the comfort for huge mileage but very versatile and capable, on and off-road
the R1200GS is the Range Rover Sport - great road bike that, while it does have limits, is surprising capable off-road
the R1200GSA is the Range Rover - awesome for monster mileage on the road (350mile tank and great weather protection) and, in the right hands with it's high ground clearance, rather good off-road
the HP2 Enduro is the Bowler Wildcat - awesomely quick off-road and only good on the road if you like that sort of thing.
As others have said, it really comes down to what you want to do with it: commute to work, tour 2 up, go overlanding... all require different things of the bike

Re:Compare Adventure motorbikes
Thank you, Can someone give me info/opinion/Review on MG Stelvio 1200 NTX. Also how this bike is accepted in UK market. As the price offer for Stelvio is attractive compared to R1200GS
