I can't be the only person that see the video title & said " it's gonna be a GS1300 " 🤷♂️
I thought about it but next time maybe. But for now the RT and RTP won out :)
I way thinking the same butty, Nice to see 👍🧩
Of course I thought it was going to be a 1300gs. The 1250rt is such a wonderful bike, I tried it for a day here in the alps and it's the best road bike I've ever ridden. Can't wait to see the 1300rt! Well done Toby!
This bike is majestic, reminding me of the great sailing ships of yore. I wish you many happy touring miles for the new season on this fabulous machine.
HNY lads. Looking forward to the next RT iteration. ATVB
Hi Toby love your new bike, I was going to sell my 2019 1250 RT but watching your comments on your new bike I'm keeping it I found it completely different than my 1250 GSA , but I have to give it another go . Cheers
Matt
Congratulations on the new RT, Happy New Year Mark & Toby
Happy new year!
I picked up a 2017 1200 RT a couple of years ago and I’ve never looked back. The panniers are amazing albeit I do have the inner bags which make life easier for smaller day to day items. I leave them in place unexpanded and secured with top unzipped simple. I digress my RT now has 44k on it with no issues were I to change it I’d likely get another 😆
Looking forward to seeing your relationship with the RT develop. I converted from a decade or so of GS ownership to an RT a year ago and not looked back. Loving the agility, stability and comfort, which are all a step up from the GS. However, visually I think I prefer the GS, but thats more of an emotion!
Hi John
What is your opinion on the new 1300GS?
I'm keen to see+ ride the 1300RT
Lovely bike Toby enjoy, seriously considering one myself next time…
Congratulations on your new bike Toby; a brace of RTs😃👍
Beautiful, I'm quite envious old boy. 😉😉👍👍
Toby, I have fitted higher seat (with heating,cheap on e bay) and transformed the riding position. Then you can throw away those cumbersome lower pegs. I live near you, so your welcome to try it. Regards Paul
Sounds good :)
That's a beautiful bike mate, exactly how I'd spec one and agree about the panniers, top loaded ones would be ideal for civilians to purchase. Enjoy your bike and Happy New Year when it comes. 👍
Love my RT with the bar risers and lowering peg kit…..I can’t find any good reason to trade my 2015 RT, but it’s only a matter of time ❤️. Congrats on the new bike 👍 my friend just bought a new RT and the lights are so much brighter, which is important here in the US to stay alive 👍
Enjoy Toby!!
Thanks. Will do
I honestly thought it was another GS 😊😊 well done and what a nice bike ! Happy new year
Well I never would have guessed 😁..all the best guys have a great New year 👍
You need bespoke hard shell bmw genuine bags they are a game changer, otherwise side loading panniers are a pain
Looking into them ;)
Ok thanks . I will buy the mount
Health to enjoy Toby
Happy New year !! Nice touring machine, I like the red reflectives on the rear of panniers. Much more visible from behind.
My 2012 RT is the best bike I've had .
Lovely bike! 👍
My favourite stretch of road in the UK, where I've ridden with seaflyfisher many a mile.
Enjoy your RT Toby, Happy New year to you both.
Happy new year!
Quad lock now do fitting for the brake master cylinder.
Grest choice Toby, enjoy many happy miles to come 👌
I had one, traded it in last July, mine was in the racing blue 💙💙, great bike, only reason I sold it was, I didn't need a big bike any longer... very capable machine...(hope you can keep the white clean 😅😅)
May need shares in dry sparkle 🤣
Brilliant choice TOBY,love the 1250rt,great video
I only added the tank pads, cylinder head covers and rear crash guards (very easy to install). The handling comparison to the GS or the GSA that I owned both multiple times, is so much better due to the front rake angle and the 17" wheel/tire. This bike makes you feel like you are a better rider instantly. Nice New Year present to yourself. Safe rides. I am not so sure about those Huge Red stickers 😀
Beautiful motorcycle!
Thanks :)
I’ve had rt out twice while my gs was getting serviced.
I always prefer the rt
If it wasn’t for the odd gravel lane I’d have rt all day long.
Happy new year
Panniers are fine,
I use the triumph inner bags from my trophy 50000m and they fit my 2019 RT also now 50000m fine both bought new.
Tour Spain France Portugal with my wife and there is plenty of room with the BMW top box
Now waiting to see if we get a 1300 RT
I found the RT has much better MPG than my previous GS. Same engines but different gearing on the RT.
Snap, identical to mine, I’m on my forth now over the last 17 years. Yes I disagree about panniers we will leave it at that 😂😂😂
I expect you will be changing your panniers to a top opening system rather than the side opening panniers fitted to the RT. I seem to remember on an older video of yours about the RT that was something that you really didn't like, and at the time was a deal breaker for you, even though just about everything else about the RT you absolutely love. Anyway congratulations on getting your RT it is a fabulous bike and I am sure you will totally love it. I love mine, it is a wonderful bike. Happy biking.
Totally love it already. Warming to the panniers :)
Lovely bike Toby 👍
Nice bike! 👍👏
Thanks! 👍
Happy New Year. I've taken your advice the last couple of years. I love your funny reviews. recently I bought DataTag for my new bike only to find it came with it (I got my money back). I got the Hex Ezcan after your review (awesome). I nearly bought a bike after you reviewed the R18 but had my eve on the BMW GS you were riding. However, BMW wouldn't let me try-out a GS with a pillion unless I put £10000 upfront. So I went to Triumph and they let me try a tiger 1200 GT PRO. I picked it up last week. Thanks for the entertainment
Glad you enjoy the vids buddy. Ride safe on the new ride
Great bike for new year injoy , happy new year two both of you 😊👍🏍️
Happy new year!
Nice bike Tobes! Happy New year, hope to see you guys soon 🫡🫡
Happy New Year Duchess
Thanks buddy. Happy new year.
Excellent choice! I sat on one at Completely Motorbikes in Hinckley before Christmas and must admit, as an "I'll never ride a BMW" type of guy I was impressed. Seemed way more manageable than its mahoosive big brother the K1600...
I look forward to seeing how you get on with it....
The K1600 is sooo smooth though…. HNY Ride safe
In fairness it was the K1600 I went to see as I am touring Scotland next June and my 17 year old son (who is bigger than me) wants to come so I need a more suitable machine than my current bike. @@markholroyd5365
Toby i got a new handle bar locking bolt with long end to mount my quad lock 👍
Congrats, nice bike. I have one for test ride on couple months ago and i love it.
I hope to change my GS for that one.
If you like panniers with top opening there is SHAD two models, 23 and 35 liters with top opening and you can have them with coloured inserts, but on my opinion try first panniers bags... i have FJR with same type of panniers and with bags they wonderfull..
Once again, good choice and i want you lot of safe and happy miles in new year
Cheers
So glad its not a GS like all the other youtubers at the moment. Do you know if ACC can be added later if desired? May just be new switch gear and radar unit. I'm waiting for the -Ps to make it to the second hand market and it looked like they had ACC but you've shown it could just be the blanking plate
I'd love to see how good the headlights are at night, particularly main beam
Not sure about that one. I’m waiting too ;)
Congrats, great bike. have many nice rides with it.
I am thinking to trade my gsa for an RT.
Happy new year!
Great video Toby...one heads up though. I have an R1250RT too with an innov K5 system but found if I use the bracket on the front as you have, then you may find it may hit the mudguard on occasion. Hard to believe when stationary I know, but just a heads up. I simply velcro'd mine to the exact same position as yours.
Thanks buddy. Will keep an eye out
Also 60.7 mpg since new
Excellent bike Toby. I have the 1250 RT Sport (the blue one) and have loved it.
I notice you have mounted your dash cam under the headlight. I also originally placed a camera there but I found that it kept getting hit by the front mud guard. I moved it onto the RH side of the radiator opening. Hopefully yours is short enough to clear the guard.
They certainly are. Loving Alvin 🤣. It’s not foiled against the front mudguard and is well clear. Have you got the ACC? Might be lower?
@@RiderCamTV yes I have the ACC. I don't think there would be any difference between bikes with or without it. Your Innovv camera and mount must be a bit shorter than the one I have.
Nice 😎
Bootiful ….. 👍
toby you can slide rear mudguard down for better results in wet weather. think just undo couple of bolts and slide👍
Cool. Thanks for the tip
Hey up! 🎉 happy new year.. could I ask what tape you have used on the panniers?
Happy new year buddy. It’s 3m tape from Amazon
Can’t beat those LED lights! Curious how do you keep your bikes clean and rust free during winter?
Who says we clean them? I went 9 months without cleaning mine because of touring… Ride safe and clean
😂
Scott oiler 365 and of course dry sparkle :)
@@RiderCamTV oh yeah that as well…
Panniers Mate. Also the windshield creates added wind resistance as well.
Good looking bike.
I have a 2020 R1250RT without the big TFT screen.
What bracket have you used for the Navigation please?
I found a bracket on eBay that is exactly the same as the hornig sat nav adapter. But cheaper ;)
The mesh seat you’ve fitted does it work with the heated seat on? I’ve just bought 1 for my GS
Yep. Works a treat
Hi, does the tft interfere with the garmin reception? I read that it does. I fancy the same mount.
Not noticed anything either the garmin XT so far
Hi buddy, I don't know if you know , you can get a brake enlarger and a gear selector off Nippy Normans to co inside with your lower foot pegs 🙂
thanks buddy. not sure i will keep the lowered foot pegs as they stick out a little too far but thanks for the info :)
happy new year all !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you have a part number for the BMW Sat Nav holder please? I have the Wunderlich Bracket but cannot find the nav cradle!
I haven’t unfortunately but found it on eBay. I searched for BMW sat nav preparation. It’s the same on all the BMW’s ;)
Thank you @@RiderCamTV
@@RiderCamTVHi Toby. I’ve searched and can’t find the sat nav mount on fleabay. Do you have any further info to assist me in locating one please. This vid has influenced me in changing my decision to purchase a new GS. Done loads of research since you posted this, I’m now set on buying a RT. Great channel and content mate 🙏👍
Could you tell me where you purchased your hi viz vest please? Thanks
Urban glow
Apologies if you’ve done a previous video, but do you use a navigation app that you produce gps files to send to your Garmin xt 2??
HNY! We use My Route App Garmin Basecamp. Ride safe
@@markholroyd5365 thank you Mark, and a Happy New Year to you and Toby!!!
the size of the licence plates are ridiculous.. all the better for police and cameras to see i assume. Very nice machine!
Designed to slow you down 😂😂 with camera technology today why do you need it so big . Anyway happy new year moteros ride safe 👍keep vids coming Toby 💪🏼
Ah but if you don’t speed it’s not an issue…. HNY and ride safe .
@@markholroyd5365 with the amount of traffic on the Uk roads am surprised you can keep up to the limits , happy new year 😂🤣
Love the RTs but I think my Pan European 1300 will certainly do very well for me, considering I've already done close to 11k miles since buying it in April! Just wish I had cruise control. Out of curiosity, with the Zumos you guys use, do you find it handy to have running even without a route plotted? I'm looking at making the investment after realising how much I don't like phone navigation and the idea of having it as an additional source of info and to help me keep on speeds whilst observing
Pan are awesome too! Yeah I usually ride with the sat nav on map view. More habit than anything else but it is handy for that little more information about the road and corners up a head :)
I do like an RT
What... no ADV350!?
Great bike my friend! Congrats..to be fair, it looks more grumpy, than mean. 👍🏻
Have you replaced your gsa with this
Yes Toby has jumped ship…. But they are lovely bikes. Ride safe
@@markholroyd5365 i have owned 2 hexhead rt in the past but my currant bike is identicle to tobys gsa mine also came supplied with halogen headlight which bm later swapped out a few montha ago i test rode vertus rt whilst mi e was being serviced and it felt very low and i felt cramped i felt like i was looking down at the bike also i find them a bit too cossiting where as the gs is a bit less so and in turn makes me feel more connected to the outside world its hard to put into words the rt makes me feel more removed from the biking experience. I had my sos switch replaced a couple of week ago i borrowed a gsa triple black demo bike but my bike felt so much nicer to ride partly due to changing those not so nice annakee adv tyres for tourance next
“Sat Nav is lockable”… but mount is 3M mounted and stuck on 🤔🤔🤔
It’s the deterrent more than anything ;)
I guess so. Keep up the good work on the VLOGs (from a fellow Cousin Jack 😉
What, no top case?
Nope. Far too much money
Nice bike. I'll get one when I'm fat and old.
rude 🤣 you dont know what your missing
Massive . You need a car 😝😉👍🏻
Never! 🤣
Not sure I'd say it looks "mean" - kind of looks like a beluga whale or something to me and they're pretty friendly.
I love the RT in whatever guise, such an all round m/c, and I rate the BMW connected app, works for me. HNY Ridercam TV
Happy new year buddy
