I own a 2007 BMW R1200GS Adventure. I commute

I own a 2007 BMW R1200GS Adventure. I commute year-round and parked it outside last night with the temperature dropping to about 20F. When I attempted to start the bike in the cold, the key would not turn in the ignition. It was not exposed to water and was covered the entire time it was parked. I returned a couple hours later when the temperature was 34F and the key turned normally. Any ideas as to what caused this temporary condition?

How do i change the cam belt on a 2007 bmw r1200gs adventure motorbike

There is no cam belt. Cams are chain driven and you have to remove and strip the entire motor to change the chains.

How repair my BMW R1200GS 2007 abs?

It seems the only solution is to exchange the ABS Modulator. I´ve not heard of any repair company that refurbish these parts. It´s an expensive reposition part, and I´ve just got the problem on my 2007. It seems the 2008 GS has a Recall for this problem, but not on the 2007.

Bmw R1200GS and R1200GS Adventure

I believe that the Adventure model is higher, has stone guards etc... and is more orientated to long distance traveling...eg: bigger fuel capacity.
