NYC tarmac slayer extraordinaire! Rush hour traffic merely elevates the “fight or flight” hormone cortisol. Once that gets coursing through your system, you are ready for anything. Totally agree with the under layering. I have thin compression fleece under both my riding jeans and upper body apparel. Typically a First Mfg Raider jacket or Rev’it textile with First Mfg low rider Vest. The feet get tall to the knees Merino wool socks. Sublime. As we all know the R1250 is the sweet spot of BMW’s line up. I agree it’s character laden. For simplicity, ease of maintenance and spartan luxury with all you really need for experiencing two wheel freedom. You can’t go wrong with the Swiss Army BMW GSA.
I have the same bike and color scheme as you .. i got mine February of 23 and have 7000 miles on it. I love the machine -! I would love to add a s1000rr or the s1000xr m package to the garage this spring
New view is good, and I'm glad you have winter riding pants! I have the Bohn ones, and love 'em. It's always good to have the right gear for the situation!
It was a great motorcycle. Still is, I’m glad someone is riding her the way she deserves to be ridden. Thanks for continuing this motorcycle journey with me. So much more to come.
G, you’re always making good points! In the car world, I got rid of an older Smart car and ended up now having owned three! I will keep the current one so I won’t keep having to go back. In the motorcycle world, I’ve owned two Suzuki Burgman 650s. I have since got rid of my last one when I got my 2018 Goldwing, you know the one. Now my Goldwing is one of the ones where I may own other motorcycles in the future, but I will keep the Goldwing. Then I added a Piaggio MP3 530 Exclusive to the stable when I was looking for a Yamaha Niken. I really like this scooter but if I come across a Suzuki Burgman 650 Executive in great shape - watch out! Thanks for sharing!
Like you, I can never have enough gear, three riding suites and working on my 4th😂😂 I've had the official Chin Mounts for a while now and it is a cleaner look.
Nice!! I used one on my Schuberth and liked the clean look so much I ordered one for the Shoei. Nice product. But those Bilt Storm 2’s are another story 😂 😂

I have to remind myself often when drooling over the next motorcycle acquisition. What can i say, i'm afflicted. 🤣🤣🤣
Good to see you are back in business GBeWinginIt! I have had The BILT Storm 2 Waterproof Overpants for about two years, and they are great!
Warm as all get out!
YEP! I WILL ALWAYS HAVE THE
GOLDWING DCT! THANKS FOR THE RIDE GBE

That combination of bikes would cover all the bases.

I didn't know bohn made an overpant.
@@GBeWinginIt Nah, they're under-pants... they go under your jeans. I did a video on them last year. I've already worn them a bunch this year, LOL.
I use Chin Mounts... love it. You should move up in GoPro number... the steadiness is much much better from like 7 up. I run a 10 on my chin.
I'm running the Hero 8 Black for 3 years now, guess it's time to consider upgrading.
Always a calming video I wish I had your voice for my channel ride safe 😊 I think I have built riding jeans
Does the armor sit in the correct place when on the bike? Thanks for watching and commenting.
Miss your wing

Some things you just got to go back for seconds. Life's funny that way.
