Enjoyed your review thanks very much. I am in Australia and just upgraded my GS1200 to a GSA1300 ASA triple black with all the options. Like most people I hated it when I first saw the videos, but now love it, particularly the view when riding and looking down over the massive tank. I am just running it in, and can’t see myself ever going back to having a clutch. It makes the ride a lot more relaxing at 61 years old. I have read a lot of the negatives about it, but like me get out and ride one and you will soon change your mind. Love your work!

Hi, Caledonian biker, once again, your enthusiasm and experience of numerous bikes and riding reviews has made me more aware of the suitability and range of bikes available to someone fairly new to riding, ensuring peace of mind and knowledge, when thinking about the machine of your choice prior to buying it. Many thanks and I shall continue to view your channel and look forward to future biking reviews.
Im have the GS1300 and absolutely love it, had some gremlins at the start as I was an earlier adopter. Glad I bought and upgraded from my GS1250..... keep up the good work
Thanks for watching and sharing your own personal experience after the purchase of your R1300 GS. I'm delighted that you've decided to continue with your ownership of this excellent bike after experiencing your difficulties at the commencement of your ownership. May I wish you many miles of smiles on your bike. Cheers C.B.
@@greenrush4313Hi thanks for watching and commenting on the video. I'm glad your a Pan America fan and commented on it. I've posted a few videos on this Channel before and not had a comment. It's a bike I've not ridden so pointless commenting. But as you seen in my video I'm a massive GS fan and I'm loving my bike.

Hi thanks again for commenting and asking the question with the downpipes fitted and an end can 10bhp is achieved taking it to 155bhp. However if you aren't satisfied with that HillTop Tuners can map you up to 170bhp@@jamescurrie1285
Glad your pleased with your bike buddy , unfortunately after having owned the last four models of GS, I couldn’t get on with the looks of the 1300 when launched , but know that looks are subjective, I searched for the last of the 1250,s , to no avail, but opted for a 1250RS instead , to have the same engine, and absolutely love it ,
Great comments I am also using an optimate on the 1300. Radar is a fab option on the tours and uk smart motorways as is the electric screen, I agree spokes are a massive pain to clean you did well chosing those wheels mine are the standard cast ones. After the latest software updates and a service the bike is running very well, it is a class act. Very powerful bike, struggle to use it all without getting in a lot of trouble.
Thanks for watching commenting and sharing your personal views and experiences with the Channel. I'm a massive fan as you see with my yearly review of the bike. I ride with several other R1300 GS owners who are all like minded. I wish you many miles of smiles on your R1300 GS. Cheers C.B.

I had the 1150 and the 1100gs which the 1100 was better in my opinion.
