The BMW R80 GS and R100 R motorcycles were iconic models produced by BMW Motorrad in the 1980s, representing the dawn of the modern adventure touring segment. The R80 GS, introduced in 1980, was the first true adventure motorcycle, pioneering a new class of robust and capable machines designed for both on and off-road riding. It was followed by the R100 R, a more street-oriented model, in 1983. Both bikes shared the same air-cooled, horizontally opposed "boxer" engine, but differed in displacement and styling. The R80 GS, with its 797cc engine, provided a smooth and reliable power delivery, while the R100 R boasted a larger 980cc engine, delivering more power for extended highway cruising. Both were celebrated for their durability, rugged construction, and impressive handling characteristics, making them ideal choices for long-distance touring and challenging off-road adventures.

These motorcycles were also notable for their innovative features, introducing several industry firsts. The R80 GS, for example, was the first motorcycle to feature a mono-lever rear suspension, which provided exceptional traction and stability, particularly on uneven terrain. It also incorporated a high-mounted exhaust system, enhancing ground clearance and improving off-road performance. The R100 R, on the other hand, offered a more comfortable riding experience, with a lower seat height and a more relaxed riding position. Both models were equipped with a reliable electric starter, eliminating the need for a kick starter, and a digital instrument cluster, providing essential information at a glance. These innovations helped to solidify BMW's reputation as a leader in motorcycle design and technology, paving the way for the development of future adventure touring models.
