That's got to be the best looking Suzuki since the Katana.
Would've fooled me
It does have a very Katana look to it, lol.
😂
As well as the least reliable Katana 😂
I could not agree with you more 🙌
Being a GS fan, and still happy with my 1150, I always wondered why the advantage of a longitudinal boxer-layout is never mentioned: nimbleness due to lesser angle momentum when going through corners. Even in reviews about the R18 the nimbleness is often mentioned, but not why.
I have owned 5 of these R11xx bikes. I love the opposed twin engines. I love how it lurches to the right when you accelerate. I just found these bikes too heavy to maneuver in a garage or slopes. I switched to sport bikes - Ducatis.
I really like the old headlight design because it was looks so cool on the r1250gs
No doubt it is Still the King of the bikes and with this new package BMW just made sure it is the King Bike for much much longer ... Amazing Bike!
New "Enduro Forged" wheels, 1.8kg lighter than the spoked wheels. Hmm...so that's bringing the 237kg down to 235.2kg (if the spoke is the same weight as the standard forged). Sounds good! One can never underestimate the light feeling of unsprung mass. Thank you Motobob for another great video!
Good to see you here.
Except you can't add a lithium battery for even more weight loss. Has one already. ;)
Lighter AND stronger AND better equipped already in the basic version, plus much sleeker looks. I am sure it will dominate the market - again.
And I want one !
Despite riding a lovely red Ducati and having owned three GSs, I like it, and it’s seems more suited to us short arsed riders and I love the torque figure, even better. Certainly test one next change.
As a fellow short arse I agree with you but I wish they'd do one with 17" wheels.
@@yonniboy1 My Multi has a 19” front and you’d never know, it’s only on a track or if you wanted super sticky rubber it’s an advantage. The 1200 and 1250 had fast precise steering despite the weight, the bars help too. I’m sure with the new suspension the front feel is even better, my Multi has a super fast turn especially in sport mode, sure the GS in dynamic will be the same.
@@yonniboy1the normal v4s has a 17" front wheel. The rally a 19".
I don’t know why ppl are super mad about the face, it is modern and simple yet unique, you can tell it is gs cominh from miles away.
It's boring, too simple and hideous. Yes you can see it comming from far away, so you can start laughing and pointing early.
So sad to see the asymmetric lights gone. That was a signiture feature for bmw. First the s1000rr now the gs.
The designers hired by BMW have become more and more worse than ever 😢
all we know about GS is gone, if you see this monstrosity in your mirror, you probably think its a suzuki katana or suzuki (tring to be an adventure) bike Sad. Designers are probably having huge salaries and probably trying to impress wider range of audience where they completly forgot about GS.
Same
I'm now wondering if this is to accommodate the radar above the headlight. Would it have been possible or at least as neat with the asymmetric headlight?
@motobob ok, solid point. But if they wanted to keep the assimetric front end the designers would find a way to accommodate the radar and everything in it while keeping the unique look of it. Im not saying its ugly just average. Which at this price point shouldn't be.
The bike looks great lighter and modern. Very good job BMW. Improvement in the electronics, Looking forward to seeing it in person. More difficult to decide Multistrada or new GS???
িশজয়
not even close for me. torque is much more important if you‘re really use it as an adv - and the 7 litres consumption of the multistrada is a dealbreaker itself. that’s more than a fast and comfortable 5 seater Passat with huge trunkspace.
If you will use it for everyday riding or a lot of long distance travels in europe, the BMW is better choice. But if you want something for everything but not everyday, with fun and joy to drive, and dont care if you pay a little bit more in refuel, go for the V4S.
I have a V4S, and really don´t care about the fuel consumption, it´s worth :) if driving long distances with more calm speeds it´s about 6,5L/100km. We need to see if the fuel consumption BMW provided is real or not.
Great review! Sometimes people get too “talky” with these, but your review was info-packed all the way through. Makes me want to test against my KTM 790R
You can’t go wrong with dropping weight and stream-lining the looks, there’s probably an Adventure model in the works
This is the first time I've seriously considered getting a GS! Loving the look and sound of this!
Be prepared to be laughed at with that hideous thing. Old man bike.
@@bjrnchrstn what kind of adult would possibly care what anyone else thinks of his bike? Most of us aren't that fragile, mate.
I'm new to the channel right now and I'm really excited. Great videos. Finally someone who has a clue.
That said, I always enjoy your reviews and insights!
Like this new look! Oh and those torque figures plus fuel economy looks great.
Good review. Thank you. The torque band of the GS is where most riders ride, and where you want the low speed grunt off road. And the low center of gravity and boxer engine help not falling over, and when you do, it's easier to pickup than the Tiger. A great advantage of the GS over others through the years has been its superior refined ride on pavement. I recently road a KTM Super Adventure and it was fun, poppier, but for a long ride it simply isn't as refined or comfortable. It will be interesting to see the reviews on the new GS to see if it retained this refinement. As always, how and where you ride is a bigger part of your bike purchase/selection decision than minor spec differences on similar class bikes.
BMW is committed to prove to everybody that no matter how bad their GS looks, they'll still sell tons of them
Eye of the beholder, isn’t it? To me, this looks as good as any other Adventure bike and better than many. The beauty of the GS has been it’s all round capability.
@@davidkendall1614 i admit this is not my genre of bikes, but from what I see online, a lot of people find this new MY a bit ugly🤷🏻♂️
@@davidemarsu7098 A lot of “the outspoken” hate it just because it has “BMW” and “GS” on the side. Even if they have never ridden or owned one. Par for the course.
Thanks to "Long Way Down/Round"
great review. probably test riding on this weekend at the Alabama event.
OMG I’m digging this new model MB! BMW always do initial quirky designs & then SLAM it hits you & you say WANT😂😂😂
Superb video
Just missed the first on market as Yamaha tracer 9gt+ has front collision braking system and that’s already out. Only problem is that many of the nice features are options. But still will be interested to see the reviews from riders.
If the gearbox is under the engine and the ground clearance is the same as the old model then that would move those two huge jugs up higher in the frame correct? Unless those jugs weigh less than the gearbox then the center of gravity should be higher correct?
How about putting some backlighting on the switches?
Looks more like a sports touring machine then an adventure, I like it!
VERY WELL EXPLAINED😍
I was worried about the weight with this bike and I am glad to hear it's lighter, bucking a long trend of more and more weight over the years. Time to start thinking about turning in my 1200GS.
lighter means weaker silly..
@@andrewsoldan6050 I guess you never heard of titanium?
Silly.
Thank you for the video. I'm looking forward to seeing this bike in person. From the videos and pics I think the looks are okay, not great. I own a 2019 R1250GS and truthfully, I think it looks okay but not great either. I bought the 19 GS because of everything else it does well. From the information so far this new version does everything and more and does it better. Ill wait a model year but this will most likely be my next motorcycle. Cheers
Looks brilliant love it already
Thanks for the detailed video. Do you know if it has backlit switchgear?
No word in the press release, so I assume not. Good point though - it's a massive oversight IMO.
I was hoping to see you here with me live in Berlin for the launch Bob , to bad 😔
Got the invite but it’s hard to make international trips worth all the extra hours so I’m cutting back now. Hope it was a good one tho - enjoy!
The power and torque peaks at much lower revs than the others. The Boxer motor is a stump-puller - which is what you want in an ADV!! ✨
That you never really ride off-road
Love it!
How’s the rear collision avoidance going to work? At a stoplight?
If you raise the shield, does it make radar sensor vulnerable? Waht riding modes disable radar or is that EnduroPro pack?
The screen & wind protection are the biggest question marks for me. Otherwise everything else looks spot on.
And the pillion seat - it looks like the slope will push pillion toward riders
My old 1150gs might a pre cyberdyne t800 but I prefer it’s looks
Robert , thx for the great report on the next gen GS, looks fantastic, I guess start saving to break the piggy bank later.
Great review and I like it and will be test riding one at the first opportunity. I like the Trophy variant and this may well be my third GS.
Personally I am not 100% on the new look. Its ok is all I can say. It doesnt scream I am beautiful like a panigale or rugged like a 700 tenere and it doesnt look that futuristic to me either. The colour of the black and green definitely make it look more palatable though. The weight saving and slender look of the bike definitely makes it look as though it will be more managable and as for the electronics, besides the adaptable height adjustment I wouldnt care for anything else. I have never had an issue with checking my blind spots and always keep a fair distance from cars in front, so its not for me. If I owned a 1250GS I wouldnt be looking to sell my bike for this. I would definitely wait at least 3 uears until the price came down and after that time if the looks had grown on me then I would buy one.
You have by far the best video on this so far, just the way you edit your videos along with the choice fonts and cut aways definitely makes it far more engaging than others. Anyway keep up the good work. 👍🏿
good！ we love bmw adv bike! thanks a lot !
R1300GS now has linked brakes from rear foot lever, right?
What settings allow the front wheel to spin when you control a wheelie with the rear brake lever? Or does the front wheel lock up while in the air?
Great Video. I have been selling these for 8yrs. My dealership is pumped for the refresh.
Are you 100% on the weight? Other sources were only listing the dry weight and stating there was no quoted kerb weight
i got to admit, i like the look now. previous models were not my cup of tea
so you'll buy one, yes?
Incredible machine
Looks good it’s the next step nearly 22k is expensive when all specked up but everything is at the moment.
Much better. Didn't like the looks before... Now I do. Plus it's pretty light at 237kg. Love the torque and suspension. I would love to get one, now.
I have a 2017 R120GS Rallye, and I must say that this new 1300 looks good.
P.S.
Nice Vlog Bob
simply the best looing GS ever. But, still a GS (an easy overtake). I fancy the base model.
Great looking Suzuki VStrom 🎉
NEVER got on ANY my GS's & Adventure's and said "well this needs more power" !!!
There she blows! The GS Katana! But seriously, the old one is a great bike (haters gonna hate) and the best selling. The new one is unlikely to be a duffer and they have done a very good job with the weight. That is a remarkable achievement for a bike specced for two-up touring with mega luggage, off road. Like not far off a 2000's V-twin superbike (my SP1 was 200kg dry), and more power too... But while I suspect the basics are all good, I'm not a fan of the gizmos and Bosch-ification: keyless twaddle, flashing wing mirrors, connected dash, radar, 50 sub settings... They're all showroom features that distract on (or off) the road - gimme a stripped back version with decent shocks for £2k less! Bikes used to be safe from haranguing tech - an oasis of analogue calm and mechanical purity! But that's not just BMW's issue, its all modern bikes and cars...
Nowadays motorcycles are made for those who want maximum comfort and safety as in a car, for traveling from hotel to hotel, taking beautiful photos for Instagram along the way. There are fewer and fewer true travelers at one with nature.
Pricy but my first choice now for my next long distance bike. Haven't been looking forward this much to new beemer ever since the HP2 Enduro, which i love still, but not getting any younger lol
Great video. I really really really like it but am waiting for the Adv
Great review as usual! I think it's one thing car manufacturers stuffing as much driver assist functionality that they can into a car and competing with each other, but when it comes to motorbikes I don't want any of that. It's about me, the bike and the road and that's it. When you ride you're much more engaged than in a car, and I don't need anything to change decisions on me. The risks are so much higher.
My first impression is that it gives us more from newest technologies, they brought the seat heating back, but, I still preferer the previous one in terms of style but maybe I just need to get used to the new look.
Looks nice would like to see what the RS ,R .and RT will look like when they are released
This! Really hopen for an updated R1300R. I know there was just a refresh for the R1250R in 2023 but would be amazing to see what they can do with the R/RS. Still the best bike I have owned (the r1250r), stupid me sold it.
The best part of 150BHP is ample especially with all that torque, power and torque where it's needed.
It looks like the predator with its headlight design😃
Love the design. Except for the light signature. A very modern interpration of a gs! Almost like a concept
BMW has brought its identity crisis over from its car department. They changed the most iconic headlights in their line-up, arguably the history of motorcycles. I mean how did nobody even slightly question this? Now it looks like a suzuki katana, which is not bad, but definitely not what I want, if I want to buy a BMW GS
Exactly!
All those trips to starbucks will be done in style.
Thanks Bob. I’d be spoked with a trophy…. 👍😎
Even though the HP bump is not much from the 1250, there is a 28 pound weight reduction will will help with acceleration!
Torque is the key on the road…save the hp for the track.
@@IanTed Yes, you ride torque, race HP!
Super interesting. One point is that the Kawasaki Ninja H2 has the front collision as well, already for a few years.
I just configured the new GS 1300 and it will come to nearly 30000 Euros ( exactly 29786) with Paniers, Topcase and in Green like shown in the commercial. Added a few bells and whistles. Well that is a huge price. But believe me, there will be a lot of new customers to BMW because even the new multistrada comes near this price. Myself, I will buy a 2023 GS Model as Trophy, even with everything I put in the configuration for the GS 1300. Have an offer and will save a lot of money. It is not a problem for me to go with 10 hp less😎. At last you spoke about Trophy option. I configured the new Gs1300 as Trophy and in the end, the price difference was under900 Euros because in the Option 719 the only difference to my configuration was that there were no individually manufactured cylinder heads.. So think about it
Man that's like a Yamaha ..maybe I'm not ready yet for this change of style
KING
Its going to be an awesome bike😊😊😊😊😊
Im gonna get one soon as they are available in my country i have already set my name on waiting list
the new looks seems to be a mixed bag for me. the rear sub frame indeed looks sleek but storage boxes look smaller now. also the steeper rake means pillion probably will slide onto the rider under braking. i wonder how the GSA will look based on this design theme. I wish they had gone more aggressive with liquid cooling and further reduced the protruding boxer twins to gel better with the slimmer body
Where are you getting the engine torque spec from? Max. torque 110 lb-ft at 6,500 rpm according to BMW Motorrrad.
Sold my 1250 Rallye for the Desert X. On specs and looks alone, the 1300Gs does not inspire me to return to BMW. Will wait for a test ride before deciding with my wallet.
@ 12:42. 719 TRAMONTANA
tramontana means
“westerly winds”
This new GS looks cracking. Love the green and gold version. To me it’s clearly a GS, don’t know why others are comparing it to other bikes. Which other bike has a boxer sticking out the side?
Like the design except for that headlight cluster
I wonder if the radar can be deactivated (maybe in enduro pro) I can imagine it will get anoying in single tracks where every bush is hoing to abruptly brake the bike for you thinking it is a car or an obstacle.
I know just a handfull will do single track on this bikes but just a thought.
Love the look of it, much sharper.
Will look forward to the RS variant, when it comes out.
No words for 👌
Growing on me, over the last 24 hours
Prefer the old rugged look. And the old headlight. This one is very sporty, very japanese looking. It’ll still sell great anyway.
I agree. I like the older headlight but I ride a KTM, what do I know about headlights lol.
A face only a parent could love.
This is just objectively better
@@AdhamHossam165lol No
Not as ugly as all the previous asymmetrical headlights.
Yes every time a bike gets a facelift there are people who complain and then they sell as always.
😂
The Tracer GT+ has a front collision system. Its not like your car's avoidance system.
Seems like an almost perfect bike
Is it just me or is there a "Katana" look about it?
And some KTM dirt bike
There is a general Suzuki look about it.
it looks like a NC750x
Will there be an Adventure variant?
In my opinion it does look much better than the old version. Younger, stronger and more modern look
I just hope when the large tank version arrives they move the indicators OFF the handgrips and allow adaptive cruise WITHOUT blind spot radar. If you ride off-road as I do on my Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer you do drop the bike a lot… the handguards cop a flogging as do the mirrors, so fitting the crash tested and proven double take mirrors and bark busters is a “must have”. I live with a constant alert on my bike saying blind spot radar failure… it’s a pain in the ass…!
While they are at it give the “off-road” versions 21”/18” wire spoked wheels. Changing the colours on a bike doesn’t make it “off-road”… if triumph had a air filter you could actually change or a factory oil pre filter you could use I would say they have nailed it. Pulling the tank off every 2000km’s as you have sucked in a load of dust is more than a little frustrating. Hopefully BMW didn’t go and hide the air filter in a stupid place with this model change.
The bike using the front radar to slam on the brake? That will be wonderful when pushing the bike hard through tight stuff… I hope they can have that switched off…. I love the idea of adaptive cruise but that’s ALL I want a radar for.
I find myself wanting to say i don’t like the GS, but i think I’ll reserve judgement until I’ve actually ridden one!
Will there be a GSA version?
Goodness I want it so bad. I’m selling everything 🤩
Like the compact look. The front collision avoidance is not a first in the market- I think Kawasaki Ninja H2SX has it
Idk how that thing works on a bike, if I'm not ready for braking and looking away, i'd definitely crash if the bike suddenly brakes for me...
Dropped my Multi Strada and those turn indicators and the hand guards cost over 150 $ + US one side ....Bark Busters installed soon after ! Lol.
Great review as ever.
Not for me.
But I am sure they will sell bucket loads.
Nice
That 19l range is cool, but my Norden gets me 550km+ on one tank. Maybe it has something to do with me having 75kg with gear tho :D
Shame they made design for asian market.. But I kinda dig gs900.
Similar to the previous model in terms of the looks, it will take a while for people to grasp its beauty. I've never been a fan of futurestic styling but this one looks good. Not amazing, only good. You got to love the 12kilo weight saving though😊
katastrofa dizajn
less weight is probably its biggest selling point.
It's more like 6 Kilo no more preinstall side luggage and rear luggage carrier and few other little things. Seems like naked bike when compared to it's predecessor.
Isn't ktm coming out with a new 1290 with another x headlight?
The new bike looks great. Good job BMW. Looking forward to seeing it in person.
hahahhahaahah
How can one adjust a spring rate dynamically?
Fair question - there's a good write up here: www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/news-and-views/features/bikes/bmw-next-generation-suspension
@@motobob Thank you for your answer. I have read the article and it seems to be a very clever design, but in my opinion, having two different springs is not the same as dynamically adjusting the spring rate. I thought BMW would have overcome physics.
