BETTER THANTHE REST
It's all change in the law
for learners wanting to
get onto a motorcycle. In
January 2013 the
motorcycle licence is set for
a full shake up due to the EC
3rd Driving Licence Directive. There is no way out
and the wheels are in motion and unstoppable - the
way you get a licence, the restrictions and the costs
are all set for this new legislation.
Younger riders will find they have to take three sets
of tests and wait 4 years until they get a chance to
ride an unrestricted motorcycle. Riders aged 24 or
older will find that the costs of training and test will
rise as the EU requires us to purchase many more
types of motorcycles and much more powerful
ones for the new 2013 version of Direct Access.

NEW BMW HP4:RACE-READY SUPERBIKEWith the BMW HP4, BMW Motorrad presents the lightest 4-cylinder supersports bike in the 1000cc class
to date. Based on the BMW S1000RR – the new sports motorcycle has an output of 142 kW (193 hp) and
weighs just 199 kilos [439 lbs] including Race ABS and with a 90% full fuel tank (169 kg [373 lbs] dry weight
with Race ABS).
The unstoppable G 650 GS has been transformed
from a fantastic on-road to an extreme off-road
motorcycle. With a brand new paint work and an
outstanding range of features as standard, the
immense Sertao edition puts the G 650 GS in a new
light.
The special edition model comes with a larger front
wheel to soak up the pot holes and difficult
terrain, a high windshield, aluminium engine
guard and hand protectors for
enhanced rider and motorcycle
protection and spoked wheels
front and rear to cope with the
difficult terrain. With all these
standard features combined with the
extreme agility, smoothness and
economy of the standard G 650 GS,
the superb Sertao is the perfect
contender for your next bike at £6,695

The F 700 GS is an ideal all-round machine within the GS
family, suitable for every kind of rider – no matter how
experienced. The bike features a shorter gear transmission
ratio in the 75 bhp engine to enhance agility while at the same
time guaranteeing the bike's familiar top-class handling.
ABS as standard and a comprehensive selection of optional
extras, such as Electronic Suspension Adjustment (ESA),
Automatic Stability Control (ASC), and heated grips. The ride
is not just safer but also offers especially high comfort. Low
weight, reduced seat height and a lowering option make the F
700 GS a perfect all-round enduro bike especially for female
riders. And at just 209 kg, the bike is amazingly light weight
and possesses extremely good handling capabilities.
GS feeling everywhere: the new design of the windshield
and dial faces and the smoke-tinted turn indicators and
LED rear light give the F 700 GS the grown-up look it
deserves. The three colour variants offer something
for everyone: muted Red Apple Metallic, masculine
Ostra Grey metallic matt and dynamic Glacier
Silver metallic for £7,595 on the road.
The improved F 800 GS now comes with

The biggest news is the addition of Dynamic

system with a new IDM settings for maximum
deceleration in “Slick” mode, the ability to fine
tune the Dynamic Traction Control on the fly in
“Slick” mode and the addition of launch control
with wheelie detection.
The new BMW HP4 sees its world premiere
in 2012 and is a continuation of BMW
Motorrad’s HP model series founded in
2005. Priced yet to be confirmed.
