Guide
The BMW GS rebuild
The GS as a scrambler base
Long suspension travel, cross-spoke wheels, robust engine: the GS comes from the factory with many features that other boxers only get after a scrambler conversion. This is why it is considered the most authentic base for scramblers and lightweight adventure enduros.

G/S, GS and PD – the models
- R80 G/S (1980–1987): the first GS with a Monolever single-sided swingarm.
- R80 GS & R100 GS (1987–1996): Paralever swingarm with torque arm, larger tank, and improved suspension components.
- R100 GS PD (Paris–Dakar): with a large tank and cockpit fairing.
For the rear and chassis, the difference between Monolever and Paralever is crucial.
The most important conversion parts for the GS
- Suspension: Shock absorber and fork upgrades for more reserves off-road.
- Exhaust systems – including high-mounted Scrambler-style options.
- Fenders and license plate holders with TÜV certification.
- Tail conversion for a flat, continuous Scrambler silhouette.
- Electrics & lighting for a clean, uncluttered cockpit.

FAQ
Questions about BMW R80 GS & R100 GS
Can't find your question? Use our parts inquiry form – we will respond personally.
Is the GS better for a scrambler than an R80 or R100?
For an off-road capable scrambler, yes: the GS offers longer suspension travel and robust spoked wheels. Those who just want the scrambler look for the road can also convert an R80 or R100.
Do GS parts fit Monolever and Paralever models?
Nicht alle. Heck- und Fahrwerksteile unterscheiden sich zwischen G/S (Monolever) und GS (Paralever). In den Produkttiteln steht jeweils, für welche Ausführung das Teil passt.
Are the GS conversion parts eligible for registration?
Viele Teile werden mit TÜV-Gutachten oder ABE geliefert. Bei individuellen Umbauten begleiten wir dich bis zur Eintragung.
Do you also build complete GS scramblers?
Yes. Take a look at our GS Custom Bikes or contact us directly via our contact page.
