Motorcycle
maintenance is an on going learning session between rider
and bike. GlobeRiders LLC, of Seattle Washington, has
created a new motorcycle instructional DVD to help BMW
motorcycle owners know their bike better. The video shows
how to deal with and understand maintenance issues that can
arise on the road.
GlobeRiders BMW R1200 GS Adventure Touring Instructional DVD
is hosted by Helge Pedersen, international motorcycle
expert, adventure traveler and founder of GlobeRiders LLC.
The DVD includes over 4 hours of video programming on 2 DVD
discs. “If a rider was on an extended ride on their BMW
R1200 GS motorcycle, and a tire blew or the engine clogged
and they’re miles from help. What are the best steps to fix
the problem and get back on the road?” states John Wehman,
GlobeRiders Marketing Manager. “Being prepared gets them
back on the road quickly… not being prepared can take hours
or more.”
“Our DVD covers tire repair and just about anything else
that’s connected to this popular BMW motorcycle”, says
Wehman “We want to raise the confidence level and prepare
riders to have an enjoyable and safe trip.”
Globeriders
have produced instructional videos in the past, all aimed at
the BMW rider;
The segment menu on the
latest DVD provides listings of all
subjects covered in the program. A biker could even load
the DVD into their laptop computer and view the
step-by-step procedures, on location, as they work on
their bike.
Subjects covered in the program include a tour of
compartments and equipment on the bike, tips on storing
tools and parts for maintenance and emergencies, product
reviews, accessory recommendations, special parts, tire
changing and puncture repair, BMW luggage system,
luggage variations and packing tips, air filter cleaning
and change, CANbus System, oil filter changing, and
front and rear brake repair. The DVD also includes bonus
sections showing the BMW R1200GS with sidecar use and
Helge Pedersen’s modified BMW HP2.
The DVD also contains helpful tips from host Helge
Pedersen. Helge shares his insight gained from years of
long distance motorcycle travel throughout the world in
all kinds of climates and terrain imaginable.
Whether a rider is avid on doing their own maintenance,
or prefers just to ride and have their local shop do the
work, GlobeRiders feels this DVD will provide helpful
information and knowledge that every rider should be
aware of to get the most out of their motorcycle.
GlobeRiders BMW R1200 GS Adventure Touring Instructional
DVD has a suggested retail price of $34.95. It is
available, along with other GlobeRiders DVDs, via online
DVD retailers, motorcycle dealers, parts outlets and
retailers nationally. For more information, visit
