The way you hande this bike is amazing! I am 5'8 and 1250GS is my dream bike but I am so scared of it's weight and dimensions. I rode 2 bikes heavier than 240kgs and I dropped both of them. How you maneuver with this 280kg beast is like me maneuvering mine MT07.

I have seen this technique before, not necessarily directed toward short people. What bothers me as an owner of a GS and former owner of a K1200LT is that it's necessary to learn a complete strategy 'to deal with the height and especially weight of our BMWs. It shouldn't be this hard doing what should be fun.

You know that would work for big fat guys like me too. But I have to say, that even thought I used to ride a BMW F650 Dakar, I prefer smaller and lighter bikes in the dirt. That 1200 GS is just too heavy. Heck my F650 was too heavy. Give me something more like the Honda CRF250L for dirt riding. However when it comes to short people, I highly recommend my current ride - the Honda Fury. The seat is only 25 inches off the ground and I drag my foot pegs around every corner so this is a pavement only machine.

First of all is to stop and check what the hilly terrain looks like before going on to the hill. This maneuver you show is very dangerous. So first step is to avoid hills if you are not going to pull it all the way up.

You dont have to nurse it down at the end so much, you can just ride out of it, also, we do steep hillclimbs all the time on 1200gs, keep your momentum up always keep the back wheel rolling, dont stop and dont stall, then you leasten your chance of landing up in this situation

Ok, I understand all this. Unfortunately I do not have a clutch. Do you have any suggestions for a short girl on a AT DCT? If my bike engine is turned off, it is in neutral, what then?.
@motoikandi
4 жыл бұрын
Good question, B. I actually didn't know the answer to this question (one of the reasons I don't really care for DCT), so I reached out to my friend and off-road trainer, Bill Dragoo (with D.A.R.T.). He offered the following: "As luck would have it, we’ve had several DCTs in our classes. We have adopted methods for them to achieve a fair replication of the procedures we teach for conventional clutch bikes in most exercises. For the hill fail recovery, we teach them to pull and hold the parking brake as they stop. It doesn’t matter if the engine is off or not. Release the brake in the same manner as they would a clutch to allow the bike to smoothly reverse. Using the parking brake instead of the rear brake prevents the issue of losing balance to the right, stepping down and releasing the rear brake. When that happens, the reflex is to grab the front brake to hold the bike on the hill. We all know how that ends on a loose or hard packed, steep hill. The parking brake, being the rear, has the same (downhill brake is most effective) application as releasing the clutch against engine compression only without any thumping through of a compression stroke. It actually works quite well." I hope this helps!

Great video. I was recently taught this technique at an off-road school. The only difference was that we dismounted before doing the clutching. We used our hip to help support the bike. I think this method might provide more control and would be safer if the bike were to topple with you sitting on it. Not certain, but just a thought.
