Nice job as always Zack! As for the GS being expensive, it's true. But... consider a new H-D Road Glide is about $32,000, can't go off road, can't hang with sport bikes, weighs hundreds of pounds more, and doesn't have the tech of the GS. Actually, for $25k I think the R1300GS is a great purchase. Just my two cents.
Compare anything to a Harley and it’ll seem like a good deal😂
@@maximusDAbiker 🤣👍👍
Well Said!
Yeah sure it's expensive but compared to what is out there it kind of ... Isn't? Like if you want pretty much the best do everything go anywhere bike out there, that's it.
Y'know...I never thought of it that way. That's absolutely true
I absolutely love your non-absolutist attitude towards different types of motorcycles.
Only a Sith deals in absolutes.
@@Wattorok A very absolute statement in of itself
Too old to ride so I watch your channel and relive my youth.😅
Go small exclamation point how about a scooter or a versus 300X
I never thought I'd be lucky enough to own a GS until I had a 2021 with only 800 miles fall into my lap for under $17k. Its the best bike ive ever ridden and im in love with it. I DO daily it when it isnt over 110F here in Arizona. I will never get rid of it
@@dookieshoes141 famous last words hahah until a used gs1300 falls in your lap a few years from now . Weve all been there
Very nice! I picked up my 2022 Triple Black (571 miles) from a HD dealer last year for $14,500. I couldn't believe it. They were just about to send it off to auction. What an awesome bike. So easy to ride in a relaxed way to truly enjoy the ride. Very quick and capable in every way.
Also loving my 2018 I picked up last weekend, all round amazing bike. All the bike you would ever really need
"But unfortunately those people are wrong" LOL! You tell 'em, Zack. Let's see a Daily Rider on a Z900RS or a R 12 NineT
Z900rs!
I second this, I sold my Z900rs for a super tenere but if I had the room I would have kept the Z for sure. Such a good bike and a lovely engine. Engine is so nice I weighed that heavily as I almost bought a versys 1000 just to have that same family of engines.
R9t. Lots of character. Clunky and kinda slow but I love it.
The Zed is too hyper even they change the gearing and timing. The wind buff is another reason you don’t want to go over 75 MPH.
@@jtwu8931 hyper? The main reason no one likes it compared to the other bikes in the class is that it’s too tame. I would never call the Z hyper. Wry mellow smooth predictable engine which is what makes it so great. It’s not a twin by any stretch of the imagination but for a I4 it’s perfect.
I think all the hate against the big GS are from people who have never ridden it. They're simply very capable on and offroad. and dare i say easy to ride.
Owned a '22 GSA for close to 2 seasons. Unquestionably a capable bike.... Also sort of forgettable though. If you want a bike that has "personality" (and that is a terribly subjective but important part of bike ownership), the GS isn't going to scratch that itch. They're utilitarian almost to a fault... very good at a lot of things, not great at any one thing.
Still, for a lot of riders that is the ideal solution.
I personally think they hate gs is because of the stigma it gives out. Same reason why everyone hates bmw drivers as alot of them are assholes
@@headwinded1948 Is character something you always want, depends how you use a bike, you might enjoy it on the weekend, but not grinding through traffic, or in pouring rain, on along a motorway.
I really like how BMW threw in a few lines of code so the blind spot indicator doesn't light up when you're the one doing the passing, only when someone is coming up on you. That's thinking rather than just checking a box off a checklist - blind spot? Ja, fertig. They thought it out how it's used and I like that.
.... That's how works on all wehicles. If it didn't, it would be defective. Stop praising the minimum. If it has a feature, it should work, not be half assed
If you need more and more electronics to drive or ride just give up.... It doesn't make you a better driver/rider
@@LukaS-iy1gs You might want to have a conversation with my car then. It works as stated - if there is another vehicle coming up beside me or already beside me or me passing another vehicle, it lights up. And if you need more proof than that Zak himself even commented on how the GS1300's blind spot works so if anyone has more experience than you or me on how it works, it'd be him.
As to thinking about how things work - on my last car if I changed the volume of the stereo on the stereo screen/unit itself, it would show the volume bar on the screen only. If I changed it using the steering wheel control, it would show up in my digital instrument cluster only. That's thinking. On my new car (same brand), it works the same except when I change the volume on the steering wheel, then it shows up on both the cluster and the stereo screen. No idea if they changed it because of customer feedback or oversight but personally prefer the way it worked on my last car.
It feels the same.... almost like BMW owns Ducati
What if you are ....say...changing lanes on a multi lane highway and a car 2 lanes across also decides to change into the same lane where you are heading? I see that happening all the time. Can't replace eyeballs but that warning would sure be handy.. That being said I'd not be without blind spot radar now that I've got it.
40+ years of refining the platform. Continuous improvement. Boxer motor gives a huge head start for engineering a bike like this. Love my 1250GS!
I really like BMW's GS series and BMW in general. BMW also has a impeccable warranty and roadside service. You are literally one phone call away for help!
Love your choice for the camera angle. Both a wider view of the bike and a much better forward view. Just gorgeous. Thanks for putting in the work.
I was just thinking it's about time for a new daily rider episode!
Lmao I don’t have an instagram. But I went on instagram to see what the holdup was 😂
The Saturday is saved. Zack is on!
I finally got a bmw after almost 50 years of riding, not sure I would have love it before, but now i really enjoy my R1200. Maybe it's an age thing! Lol
Since the 2013 R1200GS: Weight: +5%; HP: +20%; Price: +36%.
It’s always been a great, unique bike. Unfortunately as a former BMW fanboy/owner, there’s just zero chance I’m personally paying $30K or more out the door - esp given the alternatives. If pressed, I’m more apt to pick up a used R1200GS if I go back to BMW.
You need to consider inflation though. How much more expensive has it gotten in real terms?
I got a 2016 (water cooled compared to the 2013) for about 12K.
It had all the riding packages, 3 original cases with carrying bags and a gps.
It also only had 9000 miles on it.
If you don't want to pay premium. Just wait for the new model to be old. I'm pretty sure it's at least another 5 years until my gs is worth below 10K.
Zach, your summation of how you placed the GS at the top is so good. Well done!
Yo-yo to all the "REV" Bros .....you guys are completely professional at what you do you should be very proud of the product you make and the consistency of it because I am and I love watching my shows
I’m saving my $100,000 for the 950 pound R 1900 in 2028!
I'm saving $120,000 for a 2028 1100 pound Hercules Airlander 2200RX. It's arms race, my friend, and by arms race I mean my feeling of inadequacy.
Actually the R1300GS is the same weight the R1200GS was 11 years ago, and the inflation-adjusted price is about the same too.
They are holding the line.
^ This dude BMW's.
It’s been a while since I sat through a single episode on Netflix and I can watch your video strait to the end and always end up refreshing with an update in the fast moving bike world. Wonderful job on the ride and review as always.
I agree with most points you have. I don´t understand people complaining about the hill hold. The frist 3 starts with it switched on are strange, than it becomes second nature. You can disable it by pulling the brake lever or using the rear brake. If you don´t want to use it, switch it of. Even though I don´t know why you would do that. It is an incredible feature.
The only thing I am not sold on is the comfort. I am 190 (close to 6 ft 3 in I guess?) I have the enduro package, so maybe the footpegs are positioned different than the standard footpegs. But I can´t sit on it for a full day. Not even a full tank to be honest and I am 34 years old and an active, trained guy. I will most likely look into a different seat and/or footpegs. That is the one thing I am actually not happy with. Especially if you think about what this bike is supposed to be. On my old F800ST I would be sad that the tank is empty and I had to stop.
I can see the possible benefits , but I switched mine of after a hour will look back into it when I get time
Mine cane with a "tall comfort seat." Maybe it has more squish/fluff than yours? I can ride afilltank no prob, just like my prior 1250.
@@KalJoao I have the tall comfort seat as well.
@gordanmoran4549 maybe try it in a parking lot and see how much throttle you need to give and get a feeling for it
I turned off the hill hold on my Jeep, just because I wanted a bit more of a genuine experience, which gets lost with every new piece of technology.
I don't even think about it when I'm off roading.
And yes, I'm also the type that doesn't like quick shifters and such unless I'm racing. Even then my track bike has zero tech (still a carburated 2 stroke) 😂
R1250 gsa owner here. Went from s1000rr/R1 track runner to the 1250. It has been and feel like it always will be the best bike I've ever owned. It's a jack of all trades, master of none type of bike. If I want to bring it to the twities and have some fun, it's no problem. If I want to cruise cross country, it does that amazingly well. For the small amount of off road I have done on it, it was surprisingly sturdy. Love the bike and where it has gone
Long awaited gs1300 review finally arrived ❤
The most uncomfortable motorcycle you will ever ride. Very disappointing BMW
Awesome video! When I purchased my GS 1250 it had the hill hold assist. I didn't think I would ever use it. Now after 2 years - I love it. Best!
“R1300 GS Pure” would be consistent with BMW’s branding for stripped down R9T. And wow yeah that sounds like a great idea!
Glad you finally got to ride it Zack. I'm so happy with mine. Best moto I've ever ridden.
Congrats!
Instagram Question: "If you could only change one thing?"
Zack: "Literally remove everything!"
That was hilarious. Was kinda hoping the KTM would hang on to #1, but can't really argue with the leaderboard. Great review as always!
I may not like all the motorcycles you review !... But I love all your review`s 👍
Just got back from a trip in the alps. I rode the 1300. It was fantastic. The adaptive ride height function is great.
The downside is that you can't get the adaptive ride height feature if you opt for the "sport" (off road) suspension.
When I hear 'daily rider' I would think a new bike/video everyday. More of Zack please! Great job and personality!
I’ll never understand the hate the GS engenders. Sure, it’s become a status symbol, but by all accounts it’s really good at what it does.
@@JS-nf1sn OK, gotcha. It seems like it’s the gold standard by which all other ADV bikes are measured but there are definitely better bikes for other purposes. I actually really like the flat twin (I have a 1250R and love it), but I feel like the GS’ reputation puts a lot of people off from even trying out that engine configuration, which is a shame. They’re pricey as hell new, but you can find some great deals used.
@@ejd8711 I don’t know of anyone that actually hates BMW. I look at them the exact same way I do Harley Davidson. They both make good bikes but I can’t justify spending that much on a toy. Especially when there are bikes that do the same thing for less than half price. Will they look as nice or be as fast? Probably not, but that’s ok.
A lifetime on top of boxxers makes you one of the best presenters to explain this bike . I would love to see this one with the bare minimum of additions .That suspension looks like a nice home for this 73 year old body .. As I have said before I wish they made an R80 version with this suspension and brakes ... I knew where it was going to be on the podium from the moment you swung a leg over that bike ... All the best , Guy
Any description Zack Courts is worth a thumbs up.
I sold a 2017 1200GS Rallye a couple of years ago. You can pick that bike up now for somewhere between £7k and £10k depending on condition/mileage. As good as I’m sure it is I very much doubt this new 1300GS is significantly better to warrant three times the money.
I just spent 12 days with the R1300GS in Sardinia, Corsica and mainland Italy. I own a 1250GS. To me, the new GS is less comfortable, more cramped, the boxer clatters at idle and sounds worse than the 1250 (which is not saying much). While it has more power and torque, it was not vastly different to me in daily riding nor when riding it aggressively. There are other tests on YT where the old and new bikes are basically side by side in a drag race and at roll-on. So much for a better power to weight ratio. Low speed handling is still wonderfully light and balanced. It is still a fabulous all round motorcycle. It was great on the Stelvio. But returning to my 1250 there was nothing that made me want to head to the BMW dealer to trade, and a few things that would keep me from doing so. That said, we had the following bikes to ride on that trip: Ducati MS V4S, Ducati Desert X, Triumph Tiger 1200, Triumph Tiger 900 Rally Pro, BMW S1000XR, Honda AT 1100 DCT (there was supposed to be a Suzuki GSX-S1000 but it was crashed, and a KTM SAS1290 but it had engine and electrical issues and had to be returned for warranty work…which appears to be a KTM thing). Out of all of those, if you could have only one bike, the GS was the best all rounder for me. As Zack says, you may not agree, but you would be wrong 😁.
I really like the feel of my MTS1200 as an all rounder bike, but everything has a weakness, and the Multi is unreliable. The bottom end had to be rebuilt at 29k which I think is unforgivable, and the piston rings appear to be shot as well, which would have been nice for the mechanic rebuilding it to have noticed. As it is now it's barely worth repairing, since I suspect the oil system is inherently flawed.
@@aluisious There is a video of an owner of the MTS 1200 with 80,000 problem free miles. "Trevor mould MTS long term review".
I would be interested in the GS1300 as a base model, there is just so much silly technology, that makes it so silly expensive it has become more of a "Flash my cash" bike.
Ninja 1000sx. Never wrong.
I agree with Zach, BMW should make a bare bones version and they would expand their market and bring more people into the brand.
Yup. Prior 800GSA and 1250RT owner here, and that’s really true about this bike “feeling” lighter, even if it isn’t. I don’t know how they did that.
Extremely sensible and and pragmatic review. Its a great bike so easy to ride super low centre of gravity with the gearbox new position just does everything that little bit better than previous model.
I love your refined and unbiased appraisal, much appreciated.
I loved this bike the 1300 GS...and I also loved the Tiger 1200 Rally Pro also. Both were neck and neck...prob prefered the Tiger if I had to choose.
I think if I was on the design team I'd have similar thoughts to you when it comes to stripping it down. I'd want them to basically make a modern HP2 enduro. I'm so sad that bikes like the HP2 enduro and the 950 super enduro R didn't stick around for very long. I know they're sort of impractical and a lot of people probably wouldn't want or use them. But there's something magical about them.
I Rida a GSA 1250 as a daily year around Commuter and I love it.
Zack's Hill hold rant FTW! 😄
I noticed that too. And ironically I love that feature so much on my, dare I say it 23 Vstrom! The streets of San Francisco can do that to you.
@@druegeme Lucky you mate, no hill hold on my Transalp, but I support myself with rear brake 😊
@druegeme yup, SF rider here too. Hill hold helps on the heavy rides for sure!!! (Esp since cars give no room for error behind)
Departing this and the new GS900 - don’t think I’ll be doing much off-road, but am tall and both really appeal to me, took a GS1250 across Africa and really liked it, even though it was GSA
With over 10,000 miles on my R1300GS Trophy edition in the first 3 months I have really enjoyed it. Mine does have the higher sport suspension because I do ride it off-road. I have also owned a 2018 R1200GSA, 2020 S1000XR and a 2022 R1250GSA. In my opinion it is better in every way. The thing that I notice the most is how good the new Evo Telever suspension is off-road. It feels way more planted with better feedback. It almost feels like my XR and my 1250GSA had a baby. It is not perfect but it is so dang good at pretty much everything.
Depending on my mood, I think the GS either peaked with the R1100GS (the purest expression of an "analog" GS) or the late model 1200s (just enough tech and weight to justify themselves) -- will be curious to see how the 1300 evolves though, and if BMW figures out how to get it right with time
Nice review Zach. Thanks again for another great daily rider!
Great Daily Rider! Not what I expected with this Gen 8.0(?) bike. The only thing I missed was that I wanted to hear more about those off-road Swayzies shown at the end? You nailed it, the GS is king because is does EVERYTHING adequately. It's the motorcycle SUV in my garage!
You can see from the video how great this bike is. I don't even like sport touring bikes, but this one is incredible no doubt.
Im going to wait for the r1300r.The r1200r 2014 was epic
R and RS are coming in mid-2025
Yeah love my R1250R.
Totally agree with your Zack! a raw R1300GS "PRO" matt Black without any gizmos with the bare minimum of electronics would sell like hotcakes. Take note BMW 😎
Thats a pretty nice CFmoto!
😂
A bit pricey though, for a CFMoto
You can easily tell its not a CFMoto when you go to sell it, it will be worth nearly all you paid for it, unlike the CFMoto which will worth the price of yesterday's newspaper!!
@@kentishmale1969 and yet it still looks like a CFmoto
On hill hold, I do think BMW do themselves a disservice shipping bikes with it on and in automatic mode.
If you’re not used to it, it’s a weird intervention on the stops you particularly don’t want weird. Learn to use it in manual mode for a bit first and the auto mode becomes a nice convenience and aid
On my 2018 it was horrible, on my 2021 is awesome and smooth to take off!
Random suggestion:
Make one of these daily rides, reviewing a nice traditional 60s-70s style custom chopper, a proper one with a jokey shifter, foot-clutch, no front brake, Kick-start only, pre-1983 big-twin motor.
I believe it would make a great video!
I got a 1250 GSA new last year,best bike I've owned and I've had a few, comfortable,all day, torque laden engine,great size for bigger riders,but the new 1300gsa is out and I love the looks,so ill be upgrading soon 👍🖤
Tried it, loved it. Much better than my 2018 1200gs. Sadly it would take a big chunk of dough to trade to the 1300. Maybe next year
Can't wait the review on Adventure version..
Having owned a GS and GSA, the GS is the better "daily rider." It's hard to think of an exception, unless perhaps your commute is in consistently cold weather. The benefits of the GSA are all for longer trips and rougher roads, and are if anything disadvantages for riding around town.
And then we get to the looks of the new GSA...
BMW should have made the shift cams stay in the efficient setting when on the highway at 80 unless cranking the throttle. I think they stay in the higher performance setting over a certain RPM. Which at modern highway speeds you're usually cruising at. So it slurps the fuel more than it should.
Great review Zac, really enjoyed it and it was a great review
thanks your reviews are great especially because your ride in has its trusty consistent format meaning all the bikes can be fairly compared
Motorcycles don't have blind spots. There is nothing blocking your vision. That said, the GS is a catch all for consumer vehicle technology so even bad tech will find a place on it. The R9T will be my next bike if I outgrow the one I'm looking at now.
Hope one day I can get a GS. Probably gonna be a R2900GS by the time I can afford one tho lol
Why do I feel that if BMW took your advice and did a bare bones "Pro" version of the bike, it would cost more than some of the lower spec models. "Ah yes, you would think it would be cheaper without all the electronics but the black paint we used contains "doesntexistium" which adds $4000 onto the price"
Not surprising to see it top the leaderboard. It's basically the S-Class Mercedes of motorcycles.
It is expensive but in the end AS expensive as the bikes it relates with (not even the most expensive - and being the king, it could be).
They called them mega on-off, travel enduro, crossover... to me GS is just the best wildcard on two wheels, on planet Earth and this is its best version, even returning to some of the original values it seemed to have lost along the way.
(this is why its worse critics are 1250GSA owners - why is a big other discussion but I am GLAD it doesn't appeal to them - kudos BMW, it takes balls to do that)
For the Second question: it’s called the BMW R1150GS. I understand the market calls for new bike reviews, but for the channel as a go-to hub for bike info, i would appreciate more old models reviews
Is the off-road section at the very end part of another video I just can’t find? Looks like fun and I’d like to see the rest
You're bike reviews are quite good. PLEASE do more bike reviews.
I put a little over 3k miles on mine and I don’t have any complaints. I was previously on a 23 HD Fat Bob.
The 13 GS should is quite rightly top of the board I love it
You should review the GSX-S1000 GX ...
Agreed.
Great review! Would you put a note in description for what all the icons mean? I think it is a nice addition & quick reference to the bike model tags for the board. A list of definitions on the board or in the description would be handy though. Thanks Zack, love ya buddy! Tell Ari howdy!
I was waiting for this review, not much for how the bike goes (which will be amazing) or how it looks (subjective (horrid in my eye)) but if some one was going to talk about luggage, and Zack is the first to at least glance over the matter, because literally no one is talking about it, and if you are wondering what happened, the new space age luggage don't work either don't close properly or fall off all together, and BMW issued a recall after months of yo-yoing to retire all the luggage, give the money back, and will talk about it next year, maybe... how do i know? let's just say that i work in the motorcycle luggage business, and the back order for aftermarket R1300GS component is soo long that it affected other make part! Big faux pas if you ask me... and yet the press, or youtuber are silent!
💯 for the GS1300 RAW!
And indeed “they are wrong”. Nice work as always Zack.
The impression I got watching the video is that it just might be so good that it gets boring. That does make for a very effective daily rider: it can go everywhere, do everything, and you won’t have an issue along the way.
For me, this bike has three limiting factors:
1) The price. The bike is just too expensive for me; on an aside o think price should be taken into account more when considering these bikes because that’s the biggest barrier to entry anyway.
2) Dealer availability. I have to make a minimum 10 hour drive round trip to get the bike, and any services performed at the dealer will require that as well.
3) The features. Simply put, there’s more features than I know what to do with, and in a way there’s too much going on. That also contributes to my issue with the price.
But hey, it is what it is, and this bike is king of its class for a reason.
Hell yes to the strip down the mumbo-jumbo and give me a basic motoecycle version. Motorcycles should be primitive and simple and, as such, fun.
Having owned every model of gs with the 310 exception. I will say the 1300 is the best off road by a long shot but on road….keep your 1250. Also clutch pull is insanely hard. It does feel dramatically smaller.
@@HowToGetMoreMetal I wish BMW would take the 310 more seriously.
@@TerraMagnus yeah it is kinda a joke compared to a 390. A 400 twin on a small frame would be so nice.
I picked up a 2013 R1200GS (liquid cooled) for a good price just to test out if I like the GS. Well…I do. It’s a fantastic bike and I adore it but life’s too short to stick with one bike so I’ll keep it for another year and try something else.
Very informative as always Zack! Thank you! Could you perhaps do a video on the 2024 Yamaha MT-09 as well?
Looks like a $25,000 NX750. I've had three GS's, my DR650 gives me infinitely more pleasure because it doesn't break down or get recalled every other day and I can work on it it without super duper secret electronic codes from Germany. Too much crap constantly breaking. "not disappointed with a long day on the road" is something I'll never know, I never got a long day on the road without them breaking. From shocks to brakes to forks to wheels to drive lines to cruise control to gps to limp modes......They are great to test ride, owning is a different story.
Exactly and for 25k you would expect at least reliability but the number of different versions of these bikes and engines every 5 years is more than suzuki in 25 years. This is amazing for marketing and inovation but horrible for reliability and long term owenership
These bikes at this point are just a status symbol, guys who needs an adv bike to actually ride have been looking elsewhere for years.
I’ve been on my motorcycle in places where my phone was completely useless and I’m like two days from home. But my Garmin unit has ALWAYS worked when I needed it. I always bite the bullet and pay for a Garmin. Well worth it. Anyone else agree or does everyone trust there phone these days?
I use trails off-road. I keep the maps I will need downloaded to my phone
For offline use. I can get nearly 20 years of subscription for cost of BMW navigation, aka garmin.
Depends where you live and how you ride. I had no phone coverage or download maps along the Myanmar boarder, on the Thailand side, but Garmin still worked.
@@RJ-yn3nuyour phone would still have the same gps signal your garmin has even without cell service
So easy to fix if you know how to download maps on Google, for example!
Phone 98% of the time
Great as always Zak, i must tell you that this bike in Italy starts from 23k € without any extras so you have much better price also regarding € to $ difference, but also to said that here gs 1300 had some electronics -handle bar reley problem . But generally nice toy!
The GS range has gotten to the point that it’s so incredible, that it’s kind of boring. That being said though they still are all phenomenal bikes from the 310 to the big 1300.
I wouldn't want the screens blocking the windscreen and forward visibility like that. Maybe that's why I prefer a naked bike.
I'd actually been waiting for this one. Great review, as always. Thanks
I’m in for the RAW lite mode
Haha this was one of those rare videos where Zack's biases show through. I do remember in a HS LS episode he did say, he doesn't care if everyone says the next GS is crap, he would still love it. And here there were a few times when he is like "oh it does this and that, but hey who cares right?" :D Or the stop sign challenge where he says ''amazingly balanced" then it turns out to be a sketchy set of stop signs xD. Good review though - as usual :DD
Rebuild the dirt jump! 🥳
So wierd I was just looking at your other GS review and was hoping you would do one on this bike! 30 seconds later it popped up.... spooky
Thanks for a proper review on the big 13 , I love the looks if I could change one thing it would be the lack of a brake light,, that’s it really, if and when I get one I’d get the base model 👍👍
he called it variable valve at 19:00 but to be clear it’s dual cam. 2 different cams are fluidly switched between. It actually defies physics but germans get around it.
No other bike does as much as well as the GS does. It's not the best in any one thing but it does so well in any category you put it in, the bike is worth more than the sum of its parts.
There should be a mouth emoji for bikes that are fun to mimic the sound of. As soon as Zack starts that you know that bike is going high on the board😂
Best hill-hold explanation ever. I mean..... exactly!
Please do a daily rider review for Honda cbr650r. Excited to see where it will stack in the leadership board
I'd like to hear your opinion on cost and ease of maintenance on the bikes you review. Keep up good work!
So better throttle response, clutch/transmission feel than m1000r and f900gs? Mmm I wonder why 🤔 what could it be, oh I don’t know… SATAN! Does anyone remember the church lady? Oh I don’t know Zack could it be… SHAFT DRIVE! like the moto guzzi review you can’t utter those two words once? I love you Zack, just kidding, but the anticipation made the video extra exciting. 🤓 GREAT REVIEW!
That looks super fun! At least 50 percent of the reason i have an old r1150r is because it looks and is interesting. It was cheap with 70k miles, it does most things well and is not the best at any except maybe all condition european style commuting with a comfy seat, extra windscreen and borrowed gs hand guards :) with my home made breville espresso thank you! Haha
Thanks for the saturday treat as always and being a rock in the tide of opinion, its ok not to be cranky and instead buy an older bike if it will tickle your pickle
Incredibly good bike. I spent several hundred miles on the new 1300's. I've also ridden and owned 1200/1250's. The new bike is better in every way.
The R1300GS Pro is an amazing idea! Not that I ever will be able to afford it, but would love to see you rip on one 😬
