This is the final leg of the ride home on my 2018 BMW R1200GS Adventure — heading back to Victoria from Sydney via the infamous Great Alpine Road.
I’ll be honest — this probably isn’t my sharpest piece of work.
The combination of catching the overnight train to Sydney, riding long hours in the heat, and the familiar brain fog that can come with my epilepsy medication meant I wasn’t as articulate as I’d hoped to be. I had plans to make deeper, more structured comparisons between this bike and my old 800MT, and at times you can probably tell my brain just wasn’t firing on all cylinders.
But I wanted to document it anyway.
Because this is part of the real experience.
Despite the fatigue, I thoroughly enjoyed the ride. The Great Alpine Road on a big adventure bike is something special — sweeping corners, elevation changes, that sense of distance and movement that reminds you why we ride in the first place.
And I’m genuinely so happy with this purchase.
At the same time, this ride has actually reinforced something important for me: CFMOTO absolutely nailed it with the 800MT.
After spending proper time on the BMW, I can say with confidence that the 800MT truly holds its head high in the company of these premium bikes. Different character? Yes. Different heritage? Of course. But brilliance doesn’t always come with a prestige badge.
This video isn’t polished.
It’s not overly analytical.
It’s just the honest final stretch of a big few days — and a reminder that sometimes documenting the journey matters more than delivering perfection.
Thanks for sticking with me.
