Llewelyn Pave from over at Brake Magazine got his hands on a 1984 BMW R80 GS recently and took it for a ride around South Wales. He got some great footage of his trip and recorded a wonderful review for the 30 year old bike. The review highlights that aside from a few areas where's technology has simply gotten better with age (front brakes for example) nearly everything on this bike indicates that BMW had great bike design down 30 years ago and has continued to work improve it since.
