To buy a BMW 1300 GS or Not to buy?? 😃
I’d say go for it. Places will send you all kinds of accessories for free which you can review then after a year or so you can sell it and get something else and do it all over again.
Yes, buy it. But you need one with +++ power as KTM has. So if you can have both will be perfect.
For sponsors, content etc yes but personally no. I'm waiting a few years for them to work the bugs out of it.
Go for it 😄👍
Go for it
I like the life of smokey, keeps the options open for different videos if you want.
Having owned 12 BMW's in the last 17 years I will tell you ' DO NOT, NOT ,NOT ,BUY a First GEN new BMW" I've done it , NEVER again!!
Saw the 719 in person when I picked up my new K1600GTL, it's a really slick bike, the camera doesn't pickup how good that color combo really looks.
Good choice on the 1600 😎👌
I rode the Ducati Pikes Peak and BWM 1300 GS back to back. I found that switching to the GS I felt disconnected from the road and the motorcycle. Surprised me as going in I was just going to scratch off the Pike Peak against the GS. Shopping for a new one now. Cheers
Smokey Motorcycles? Only doing two strokes? 🏍️💨 😂
Life of Smokey! You already have some brand recognition. 👍
Great point! 😁
Brilliant Smokey, keep up the great work, thanks mate🍺🍺
Thanks, will do! 😁
Set up is the most important thing on the 1300..I took one out for an hours test ride and tbh it wasn’t very impressive ..I then took my current GS in for a service and they offered it me for 4hours which I snapped their hands of ..messed around with the settings (mainly suspension) and it was a different bike , loved it
Yep sometimes it's like riding on a cloud and a bounce house. Sometimes it's more like a racebike suspension 😁
At least with a boxer, if you drop it, it doesn’t fall flat…making it easier to pick up.
Smokey: I can't drive 150km/h in my country.
Also Smokey: Look how fast it goes from 100 to 150 in sixth gear
This is _life of smokey_ not just motorbikes :)
God dammit Smokey, now I can't watch your videos with out being fix'd on your left hand. Your dubbelklik on the blinkers every 7 seconds is hypnotizing😂😂
Yeah didn't know I even did that....I only do it when talking for some weird reason 😅. Now it frustrates me too when watching haha
@@LifeofSmokey ..and what would happen if you took a old Beamer with left and right knob blinkers..hint..hint 😉
wait till they put the new superduke engine into a super adventure (there's spy shots) then decide
You are awesome bro...👍🏻 Love from India 🇮🇳
Leave it "Life of Smokey".
I love riding in the rain …… done 😂 seen enough
I say buy the most expensive motorcycle you can buy. I love all the tech and gizmos. On my 2022 r1250gs Rally. I have yet to read the owners manual
You should go with: "Smokey (son of) Gun" it would bring lot more interest for sure ...lol, cheers V!
Gs 2024 or Africa twin 2024?
keep your braniding mate ;)
Life of Smokey is historic now lol
Love this bike, I'm looking forward to test it: it's expensive as f thought need to convince my CFO: Chief Family Officer aka The Wife. Any tips on that? :D you might wanna do a video of "How to convince your wife that YOU NEED a new motorbike"
I don't have those issues with my wife 😅. I became a journalist so I don't have to buy bikes anymore 😂🙈
Nice vid smokey.. i got the same outfit as you, the bogota, u like it in the rain? Kan je nog eens in de haven filmen? :)
In the rain I wear the inside rain coat on the outside 😁. Harbor maybe soon haha. Not sure pretty busy 😅🙈
great looking bike! bmw made for rain
Hi 🍃bro it's really amazing bike
Hi smoky
What type of clothing is best for the adventure riding, for 4 seasons? What your opinion ?
I have the @Alpinstars Bogota drystar. Good price , multiple layers you can take out , rain jacket inside or you can use it on the outside. Fully open it up and all...like it 😁
@@LifeofSmokey awesome thanks a lot. Love the content and videos. Keep it up.
You asked about the BMW sport bikes what we think, I think Bmw should stop playing with the graphics, not a fan personally. They look like the donuts nobody wanted, covered in sprinkles.
How is the gearbox? I got mine option 719 for 4 month now 4k km on it and sometimes it shifts gears really bad and i wonder if it will last and sometimes it is shifting like ZF gearbox in mine X5 really smooth so not 100% satisfied here. The rest of the bike is 💯
No gearbox issues besides me goofing around an do miss shift here or there. Might become more smooth after some time 😊
4500 rpm 130 km/h very good👍
Please review the S1000 XR or M1000 XR, and then make a comparison between the XR and 1300 GS.
Already took the S1000XR on review ride. Waiting for the M1000XR now. I love the sound of the XR and high rpm's but for more comfort cruising I'm taking the GS 😎
Smokey you should buy this bike😊
Value for money when comparing to the stelvio? (I like stelvio looks a ton more)
Stelvio is a very nice bike , nice feeling for the money it costs. But the more horsepower and BMW suspension would do it for me 😊
@@LifeofSmokey can I ask what is the price difference in your place?
The obvious answer is, yes
hey smokey ,what is the red logo on 12min 50 seconds
What red logo you mean buddy? 😃
@@LifeofSmokey
When you are lanesplitting,your display is turning to a red logo on your tft,its een few seconds over 12minn50
@@Michel-vc9ozlooks like the front collision warning

Thanks👍
have 2 channels mate 1 just for bikes
I swear, if i start driving a bike with topcase... then its time to stop this hobby. By the way, nice neon suite. Never seen before on a GS with Topcase 😉
I'm special 😂. Also the top cases fly off and BMW stopped selling them 🙈
As the channel grows bigger, I think you should change the name.
Buy one, but not the green one.
Keep your present channel name!! (Please 😅)
👌👌
Now, I can't stop watching you clicking the indicators button 😕
I have the same issue 😂🙈. Driving myself nuts haha
I think id go for the xr its just a great looking bike id wouldn't get the m i would never go off road and the xr is probably more comfortable
You should buy one but not the tramuntana. That bike is just 10k euro extra for some bling, utterly useless. Who does even need machined end caps on the cylinders?
I would go for basic white with my own custom graphics or Trophy 😁
Why do they insist on ever uglier looking designs? I guess the blind herd of sheep is ok with whatever BMW feeds them.
Lot of technology, a lot to go wrong. BMW quality ain't what it use to be. Get an old airhead GS instead.
Can’t park there 😂
I really don't understand this unnecessary criticism over something way better than the old ones. I can understand your preferences but to out right shun something based on your assumptions is really not justified. Any new product will have some teething problems the first year or so but BMW service and warranty is there for 36k miles and 3 years.
I still have a 2013 BMW K1600 GTL with just as much technology minus the keyless ignition and adaptive cruise control reaching 29k miles without a hiccup.
Where as I had a Kawasaki 2012 Concourse 14 which had a major seal leak at 15k miles.
