Preface<br />

Dear friends of <strong>Touratech</strong>,<br />

We would like to present you with a very special<br />

catalogue this year.<br />

We have created a catalogue especially for the<br />

motorbikes which ignited our p<strong>as</strong>sion for touring; a<br />

catalogue which emph<strong>as</strong>ises the significance of these<br />

vehicles for motorbike travellers from around the<br />

world.<br />

Motorbikes such <strong>as</strong> the BMW 80 GS, BMW 100 GS,<br />

Yamaha XT, Honda Transalp and Honda Africa Twin,<br />

<strong>as</strong> well <strong>as</strong> the first BMW 650 GS have covered<br />

millions of miles on trails around the world and<br />

brought us, their drivers, so reliably to their<br />

destination that they deserve this catalogue. These<br />

vehicles still have what it takes to get each of us to<br />

the other end of the world - and back again if<br />

necessary. After thousands of kilometres on roads or<br />

trails with riders and luggage, cr<strong>as</strong>hes or mishaps,<br />

wind and weather, these vehicles have also earned<br />

our special attention.<br />

Many products that we developed in the p<strong>as</strong>t years<br />

have been reconsidered, brought out again and<br />

improved upon, so that a vehicle that h<strong>as</strong> suffered<br />

from years of exertion from touring can again be<br />

made a proud and reliable companion.<br />

Up-to-date ch<strong>as</strong>sis technology, robust functionality<br />

and high-quality products are the main focus and<br />

make any of these vehicles into a partner for the<br />

remote and lonely parts of this world. Extreme<br />

specials for rallies and touring, modern navigation<br />

technology, individual luggage solutions and<br />

numerous special parts allow for individual<br />

customisation and an unconventional bike that is<br />

sure to draw attention. Anyone who ever had the<br />

chance to ride a <strong>Touratech</strong> TB 1150 Revamp Extreme<br />

knows that the adventures this world offers are out<br />

there waiting to be experienced - be it in the Alps or<br />

the Andes. You only have to head out and look for<br />

them …<br />

To all owners of these faithful companions we wish a<br />

great biking se<strong>as</strong>on in 2010 and to all vehicles that<br />

their owners understand they should be tre<strong>as</strong>ured and<br />

want to give them something back <strong>as</strong> gratitude for<br />

how these motorbikes have performed.<br />

Your <strong>Touratech</strong> Team,<br />
