I like how you sprinkle stillshots of little details throughout the video. Good job. Thank you.
Glad you liked it!
This in the most informative overview that I’ve see to date and will definitely kick start your sales campaign. Great job by the sales guy and potential customer. An Irish viewer.
Yes thanks for that just need the opportunity to do more vids like this.
@@flapjackbeans Totally concur with Brian , also an Irish viewer , they're getting serious strong money now. Regards Robert
@@49googie thanks yes i agree the prices are getting very minty
We like the straight-talking Rotherham men. ✅
Not verbose, just facts !
Nicely edited too !
Thanks where you at?
Thanks, learned alot.
Thank you what great review
My pleasure!
@@flapjackbeans Do you fancy one ?
Nice look at the GS1300 thank you. I 'm close to ordering one but there is a couple of features I'm really not sure of which are 1,Tthe black sides of the windscreen, 2, the rear brakelights, indicators and normal running lights in that small area, I think that will cause problems with drivers not seeing people braking and indicating at the same time. 3, Really not sure about having plastic panniers after a couple of years how well will the plastic buttons and adjuster ? we all know how brittle plastic gets over time. Would like to know how well they deal with a side topple over / crash as the metal ones you know can be bent back in shape does the pannier split? the road assist how will that work when your filtering in traffic as you dont want the bike to put the brakes on. Cant wait to take one on a test ride. Thanks for the video.
Hi yes I agree re the rear lights its going to be very dangerous imho i have been rear ended and the new bike will be very hard for car s etc to see you indicating whilst braking! The bike overall is made well but I can't get to fall in love with it enough to buy one maybe after i have rode it but who knows. Your comment re luggage it would all depend how much you use them, they are made by Touretech so I would think you would get good back up.The windscreen is awful and the winglet things look like pigs ears but maybe down the line a different accessory make may fix that. Ride Safe..
@@flapjackbeans Yes I watched Charlie Boardman UA-cam video when he was at the Touretech factory, still not sure they don't seem durable to me but time will tell. I agree have to ride before making that decision
Top box and panniers made for on road only, I think. Would not stand up to going on gravel and off-road. One of the bigger aftermarket companies will soon be offering something more robust. Thx great review. I’ll wait for the GSA.
@@ennisventer8038 yes sure there will be other panniers soon. for what i use them any will work well i use top box mainly for camera gear.i would like now to go weigh a TE styled GS im curious
I had the same concerns as you Scarlet.
However if you pop the two bikes side by side the brake lights on the 1300 (split across two LED lamps ) are actually more visible than the old one.
Really good video with some great detailed content. Ive actually ordered one of these and I’m expecting delivery in December.
So great to see some hidden detail.
Kind regards (Beans).
Beans O where's the flapjack LOL Yes massive improvement over BMW's build quality in most area's Hope you enjoy the bike Im unsure regarding myself making a purchase until I hav erode it and also see what if anything KTM bring to the table. Ride safe
Thanks for the review. I’m not in the market (or so I say) buy I have been watching lots of reviews on the new iteration of the GS. Did not know about the new powder coat. I’m looking forward to seeing this in person🇨🇦
Great review buddy. Some really great features and thought put in the BMW. Panniers look great.
Yes Touratech panniers and top box have grown on me...
Seeing it side by side next to the 1250, does it look a lot smaller? I still prefer the look of my adv. Ride a lot of dirt in South Africa, seems to be a lot of plastic now.
People say it’s the Japanese version now. It’s not as ruff tuff looking for sure. But each to their own I still prefer the KTM 1290 sas.
This video was very informative, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Good video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
I’d never say never but want to see what KTM bring to the table.
Great explanation of the bike , only time wll tell if BMW have got there reliability & finish better with the 1300 gs 😅
Yes got a pal whs bought one he's having a few problems
I hope the new GS has a more durable shaft drive.
Sure it will have they must have learned by now.
I'm on my 3rd GS. The new 1300 looks like any other sport tourer on the road. I think it's a miss. But apparently I am no longer BMW's target demographic. I am a 60 year old,high mileage, cash buyer,
Yes we all been there with BM's I had 11 but Im now orange chuff ...
didn't Bmw do Vario panniers about ten years ago?
Yes they did i had some on my 2017 BMW GS Rallye they had a lever inside which you pulled down giving it more space. The new ones are Touratech made and are much better IMHO they give you a lot more options plus they are central locking with top box and bike.
Pity the panniers and top case are not available due to issues,no date when they will be either .
Excellent video !.
Thank You more to come when its warmer :-)
Nice bike. What are the long-term health implications of an RFID scanner directly under your family jewels?
Ah good question 🙋♂️ I’m sure it’s not as bad as the radiotherapy I had for prostrate cancer lol.
Health implications from an rfid scanner? Zero.
why was the engine noisy? louder than the exhaust
Euro 6 i guess
Very noisy !
@@charlesbradley2943 They all seem to be now that the exhausts are muffled so much.
The box now look so feminine..lost the rugged style of the GS.
Everyone has different eyes on it, Im starting to like it apart from price.
@@flapjackbeans love the bike too..but the box just not what i expected.
Gayyyy
How about that engine noise ?
Einfach perfekt 👍👍👍
Maybe ? 😅
LOL, everything the guy tried had problems.
Nice overview by the salesman! How long is the waitlist there to get a bike or are the ones on the floor available? No bikes on the salesfloor here in the US yet.
There in stock and if not quoting del for Xmas. Sure you will get them in USA. Soon.
@@flapjackbeans So are you going to get one?
@@JoeS97756 not sure will be buying a new bike in March. Waiting to see if KTM update the 1290 sas.
Nice streetbike it has become
Yea maybe KTM still have the rough off road within their range.
The side pannier electric covers will too easily go missing I think, not a very well thought of idea.
Yes maybe but if riders remember to screw them onto the panniers or toolbox whilst riding they do hold good.
Where the engines are made??..1300, 900, 800..2024!!??
not sure BERLIN i would have thought
Im not sure,that's why I'm asking..no one said is made in Germany
Swap the bike again
Not yet awaiting for what KTM bring to the table.
“Nice flat bit” it’s hideous 😂
As I say each to their own
When they are Made in Germany..they said it and write it..the silence about it said to me made in china,assembled in Germany..maybe..may be not..that's why I m asking, cheers
Yes I get what your saying can't say i have ever looked on any of my BMW engines for where they were made. I hav seen them made in in th plant in Berlin but as I say who knows nowadays i would suspect some china in there somewhere.
I Would Rather Die than Buy a Bike from that Awful Salesman, Everything a Salesman Shouldn't Be!!!!
