My ÔÇÖ01 R1150GS was my first BMW. It felt strange at first but I grew to love the nearly-no-dive nature of the telelever front end.
More recently I rode an ÔÇÖ02 Adventure and there does seem to be some front-end dive ÔÇô maybe not as much as other brand bikes, but more than my ÔÇÖ01 GS. I canÔÇÖt figure out why that specific Adventure dips more than my old ÔÇ£standardÔÇØ GS. Suspect theories include:
1) there is a problem with the ÔÇÖ02 Adventure that needs to be addressed
2) not necessarily a problem, this is likely a set-up issue and can be tuned to preference
3) not necessarily a problem, Adventures are supposed to have a bit more dive than the ÔÇ£standardÔÇØ 1150GS
Any thoughts on this? Thanks!
(IÔÇÖm a newbie to BMW MOA ÔÇô I searched the forums and donÔÇÖt see this specifically addressed ÔÇô none-the-less, sorry if this is an old topic)
