BMW R1200GS Best Accessories - 50K Miles in 2 Years
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 июл 2020
- After almost 50,000 miles in 2.5 years, it's time to say goodbye to Helga BMW R1200GS, so I thought I'd run through some of my R1200GS best accessories I've bought for her and how I've got on with them.
BMW R1200GS accessories come in every shape and form, but they all have one thing in common - they're NOT cheap! So are they worth it?

Thought we'd be waiting till January for this one, but you've just got to love the expensive service card as an excuse for a new bike, certainly one of my favorites. Great vid.
You tease Bruce!!
Sad to see her go , but you’re going to love the super cub (oh is it a secret ? Sorry ) my bike made 3 appearances now I’m sad 😂 new bikes new adventures mate 👌
Well done lad, another great video.
Subscribed right away.. love the calm explanations and comments
Thanks very much bud, welcome to the channel 👍
This is still my favourite colour scheme of any BMW to date!
😲 that's the first time I've seen it clean🤣 can't wait to see your new bike on the next clan ride out 👍
Nice one Bruce, You get through some miles
Hi Bruce, really nice bike, you wont believe this but I have just bought your bike today from the dealer, you have done a good job looking after her .
Can’t wait to see..... love the vids
Well done Bruce, living your life. 👍
it was nice to catch a glimpse of the beast...🤜🏾🤛
I think it will involve a shift to an orange paint job...haha great vid! Excited to see the new ride!
Totally with you , about the top box , I keep mine on all the time , plus I had an argument with a bloke about the head lamp protection on my saying it cheaper to buy that than a new headlamp , top channel 👍👍👍 thanks
Copy cat ! Great choice mate, I'm in love with mine, finally getting the first service done on Saturday so can have some fun. Great work on the channel, loving the podcasts.
After 30+ years of nothing but 1000cc sports bikes (including 3 gixers, you’ll be pleased to know) I’m now on my 2nd consecutive GSA. Stop press... I placed the order for my 3rd, yesterday!
I’m looking forward to seeing what you chose. 👍
BTW, the front fender extender is absolutely brilliant. The mudsling might be good for mud but didn’t do what I wanted it to do with water. I sold after my first wet weather trip - it protects the shock but the rider gets drenched legs from spray coming out sideways. I tried the Puig hugger, and it’s superb - I wouldn’t be without it! It now gets transferred from bike to bike - you need to save your bolts, Bruce! 😉👍
!!!Waiting!!!
It certainly doesnt feel like two years since you got her Bruce , time flies so quickly.I recon your going Orange given how well their new models are looking.
That intro was gold 😂
50K in two years is impressive - you are a rider!
Look forward to seeing your new steed. I too am getting a new steed tomorrow. The H2 SX SE being swapped for Tuono V4. Regards your comments on Hilltop. I had my GS done by them after seeing your vid and like you it felt different afterwards. I too have had comments about taking my vid down, but until someone can show 100% that Hilltop are con men, I will keep vid up. Glad to hear that full time YouTubing going well for you
Love my 18 GS Rallye. I have a 19 Super duke R as well. Can't let either of them go.
"They should be guiding ships in through the fog" hahaha
50 k miles in 2 years?? That’s a LOT of time in the seat! Respect!!!👍 someone is getting a great bike with Helga!!!😀
52000 miles is proper for a 2yr GS.
No weekend warrior here.
All weathers, all countries, all applications, proper biking TP. Keep up the good work sir.
First time viewing your channel. Really liked the video and look forward to more.
Cheers Dave, welcome to the channel bud 👍
@@teapotone thank you. :)
I’m going to miss the BMW! But can’t wait for new adventures!
I’ve been looking to buy one of these, thanks for the tips.
I'm excited for the next adventure bike. Sinnis Terrain 125. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Great video
Cool video enjoyed watching it :) interesting to see how other people got on with the liquid cooleds my 2014 was a nightmare reliability wise but one of the best bikes to ride that I've had. Thinking a single cam gsa next for me once my 250c aircooled is sold on the bay.
Good man Buce! Best of luck with the new bike. Just sold my R1150 Rockster today😔 but because i love them probably buy a bmw boxer again😊
Planning a weekend in Austria for a sneak factory preview!!!!!
Respect for the miles 25k a year. Good luck with the new bike mate, hope she looks after you as well as the BM did. Ride safe.
I feel something bright orange is coming!!
Ooooh. Cliffhanger. Just like Saturday morning pictures!
Enjoy the new 1250.
Nothing else would go with the beard and AIM training.
Great to see TeapotOne doing so well.
Happy travels
Looking forward to the new bike and the installation vids of all the new equipment you going to add! T-pot kit vids for the new street fighter 🤔😂🍻
Bet your keeping the Sinnis Terrain 125 Teapotone, hahaha :-)
just found your page with this headline lol figured i would watch....needless to say i subscribed...righteous beard by the way, mines about the same, color and all lol i was a HD guy and recent bought a leftover 19 1250GS, i have always loved that boxer engine and if i would have went with anything different i would have mad at myself, needless to say the HD gets ridden when it has sat for awhile lol...not saying i would not mind taking the africa twin for a spin though....anyway loved the channel, keep it up and i will be tuning in!
Cheers Ed, welcome to the channel bud 👍
Really like it ! And by the way, I can so much understand and feel you for leaving all the stuff on the bike. Do't worry, look at it from this angle: You won't undress the girl, she got used to her fiitings ! So you are doing the girl a great favour :)
Im sad too see her go but im also very excited for the new bike!
Great vid - as ever. Yep, totes agree on headlight guard: Honda wanted £1200 for a new Crossrunner unit to which my somewhat agitated reply was “I might as well have bought a BMW!”
Talking of which, seems to me your eye is on the KTM. But please take a 1250RS out for a TeapotOne review because I’d love to know what you think.
All the best
Damn i never saw your videos but as a Honda fan I must say that is a beautiful motorcycle!!! I’m your subscriber!!! BIG LIKE!!!
With nothing coming to mind, this is my comment. Thank for a good channel!
Oh no, say it isn't so..............go for the R1250GS, more power and very smooth. I love mine!!
I got the power hub 1 fitted then the innovv k2 cameras fitted to my mt09tracer 2015, works great and easy to remove Aswell.
Looking forward to seeing the new bike 👍 I'm getting rid of my speed rs for a Gs1200 but not sure what model is suitable for me? The rallye seems good but would it be suitable for me touring on road only
Ahh sad to see her go, Helga is what brought me to your channel.
Sad to see her go as well, but Im sure the next bike will be Electrifying ;) Anyway as long as you like what you get next it can be anything, keep up the great work & enjoy your new adventure as a full time Vlogger
Went round the world on a gixxer, so surely s1000rr is a everyday commuter, road trips and track day bike
You're riding in on my old journey to work in Catford!
God you haven’t been converted into that 1290 super duke R 😉🤣 I did notice you loved it a lot 😁 on a serious note Helga was a beast and look forward to seeing your next bike mate 👍🏻
I am convinced you are staying with BMW 1250 GSA, another great vid mate 😎👍☠️
Ooh the suspense....
Going by the very very end screen I can see it being the 1250 GS , all the best pal
A vloga who uses his bike, nice job, top tip for you, when adding accessories keep the package it came in and any bolts replaced put in said packaging and the packaging is always handy when you want re-sell. The GS suited you sir, abit like Honda Bentley would suit Tango'dMissendenFreebie 😜
I kept the packaging mostly, and thought the bolts were in there.... they weren’t?🤦♂️
I’m in tears 😢😢
Love my GS too, satnav going aswell? (Kate has lost a sale?) nice video, stay safe
Call yourself a Scotsman 😂 you are giving away so much 💴 in accessories with that bike. Lol. I’d be amazed if you get anything other than a newer GS tbh. You constantly tell us how much you love that bike. Keen to see what you get next. Stay safe man.
Sad times Bruce... imagine the video of the GSXR going... but we all know it never will... but I definitely feel a video like the intro for the Suzuki would be awesome
No matter what... i'll be back to the GS some day...
Now I understand the Sinnis review :):)
I sold my 2016 GSA with 52000 km in just less than 2 year in 2018, when i was in for a service with my new bike... i saw here... and crushed my heart (not even my ex did somthing like that!). Plus strange, in italy bmw assist is 5 year (has been for a bit) plus from 2019 4 year warrany (unlimited km!)
After the last vid of yours I watched I’m guessing it won’t be a triumph tiger 🙃
THE KTM is high up on my suspicions for the new bike. However, you do love the GS and the 1250 does everything a little better than the 1200. While I would say the 1250, the fact that you say the extra parts won't fit the new bike make me switch to the KTM as your new purchase.
a lot of the 1200 parts don't fit the new 1250s. my bets are on a 1250 HP
Hi Bruce, Had two GS's Hilltopped and you can feel the difference in grunt from the off. Take care.
Philip Chesters You should feel some difference, because your wallet was a lot lighter when you left.
😂
New subscriber here , what a fantastic channel , I sub to other bike channels , and a life long biker myself (even though my channel is vintage radios ! One extreme to another !)
Been catching up with the excellent content great channel , looking for to seeing more
Best regards Shaun.
Cheers Shaun, very kind bud cheers.
I’ll check out your content too 👍
Ya big tease!!
Heading into London. So your either dropping Coopers and heading for Park lane to pick up a 1250 GS or your heading to Hampstead for some orange😉 All the best👍🏻
Ooh bruce the beast is going !! No more whoo ha moments on Helga. Guess it must be a c90 step through as a replacement 🤣
2020 1250GS Adventure!
🖐️TP one, so sad 😭. but good luck on the new bike 👍 from R1 Greg 😜
Great stuff mate. Keep it up👍
Cant believe you not got all the old bolts. My misses takes the mick out of me . As I put all old stuff in little bags . OCD saves money lol .
And the moral of the story is ! fit it yourself or make SURE you get all the bits that have been removed when you collect your bike ,oh dear oh dear it made me laugh thanks man made my day . : )
My dream bike hope to buy one day
😂🤣😂 I’ve done exactly the same, sold my 1250 hp 🙈 bought a 3.0 superduke now looking for a used adventure bike. Not that bothered about power on that I’ll get my kicks from the sd 👍🏼
That’s the problem with the dealer fitting it all. You get non of the standard stuff. Which at the time is no issue it’s only when you go to sell. Oh well can’t be helped. Looking forward to seeing the new bike! 👍
Sad times. Lots of memories.
I'm proud of you Bruce, a GS rider not buying another GS, show them the way mate 👌. Well done, whatever you have bought, well done 👍 I reckon you've stuck to your colours though.
I told you would end up loving that new little Sinnis.......
It’s a brilliant wee thing
Super Duke GT... there can be no other. !!!
Definitely a new Gs1250 adventure or rallye. Bruce is a Gs fanboy .
just moving too this bike after 2 Tiger 800 hopefully Im making the right des
You’ve done a deal on the Sinnis haven’t you! 😂
good effort Bruce, 50k in a couple of years 👍
gs 1250 next 😁
I know what you mean mate, I have a Super Tenere 1200 with everything on it. But I needed to scratch the speed itch. Just bought an MT10 for the dry days !
R1250 gs definitely 😉👍🏻
Would be interested in your opinion on the different finance options when buying a new bike. I've never bought on finance would be good to know what you think.
The bollock tingling will be in the shape of the new 2020 S1000 XR. All the same tech as the GS but some 165 horses coming through the back wheel. Ice Grey is my guess. Thats what Ive gone for anyway.
Really enjoy your videos, like the way you produce them. My question and I sincerely hope you don’t mind!
I have a 1200 GS Rallye 2018. This is my 8th GS! I normally buy them new, keep for two or three years. I bought this 2.5 years ago with 1,500 miles on it. Just love the bike!!!
Sitting with 19,500 miles on the clock, you did 50,000 miles on your Rallye, was it reliable? Did you have any unexpected cost’s.
I’m thinking about keeping this bike.
Thanks for taking the time to read this, much appreciated.
Sad to see helga go, I'm guessing it'd be a 1250 gs from how you have spoken about them in the podcasts but could also be the ktm for that bonkers mental feeling, either way I'm looking forward to watching your journey on her,
I hope it's the 1250 GS HP, but I have a sneeky suspicion it might be the KTM GT. Don't know if I could trade shaft drive for a chain now :)
Totally agree Martin. Anyone seriously looking to do a lengthy tour must be mad to want a chain drive. I was telling everyone decades ago that the Kawasaki Z1300 with its shaft drive and water cooling was the way forward. I was laughed at.......
Hi teapot1, one question, r1250gs or 1290 adventure r?
No mention of the Sat Nav, so sticking with BMW! 😁
Thanks for posting. Shame to see her go. Hope the new bike brings as much pleasure, if not more, than the one you just mercilessly threw to the wolves. ;)
Congrats 😎🏍💨💨💨💨💨🇨🇦
Cheers John
A topbox is so so so much handier. It definitely made my Fazer so much more usable!
Nah thank you for the vids! :) Buying a Fatboy then :P I'd love a Fatboy!
GB are you sure about that last sentence 😂😂
If you've done nearly 50k on helga plus the other bikes you ride. What would you say your annual mileage is? Can't wait for the next installment
Got to be going orange or dare we say a Harley! Need to get to screwfix to buy some bolts 😁
