Yahoo Autos Now You Can Build Your Own BMW R 1200 GS Adventure Bike
Lego's been on a roll lately with its new kits. For a fraction of the cost of the real thing, you can build your own Caterham Seven, old-school Volkswagen Beetle, and even a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. But if you're a motorcycle fan, there's no need to feel left out. Lego's got you covered with the new BMW R 1200 GS Adventure kit.
The R 1200 GS practically invented the adventure tourer segment and quickly became the most popular bike in BMW's lineup. Thanks to its comfortable ride, it's perfect for cross-country journeys, but especially in Adventure trim, it also makes a tremendous off-roader.
To create the new Technic kit, Lego worked closely with BMW to make sure the R 1200 GS Adventure was as realistic as possible. Beyond the moving handlebars and adjustable windshield, you also get a realistic front suspension, shaft drive, and two-cylinder boxer engine with pistons and crankshaft that actually move.
Constructed of 603 pieces, the kit is just under 13 inches long and a full seven inches tall. Pricing has yet to be announced, but it will go on sale this January.
