My second viewing of this excellent review. If I was getting a light bike for a runaround on or Devon Lanes I now think this would be the bike for me. BMW quality at a low price. If the windshield did bother anyone I noticed there is a nice looking MRA Vario available (I have one on my F900XR and it works really well).

@exeterrider 2 года назад

Yes its worth trying. Its not like any other BMW I've tried. But I like it. 👍🍻

@petewebb6952 3 года назад

Good positive review. I like these. The 2021 models have the LED headlight. BMW must have been listening to you...

@exeterrider 3 года назад

Thanks,Hope so! That would be nice!

@ExeterCenturion Год назад

Just found this! I definitely had a problem with the small screen. I was bloody freezing, and buffeted like crazy before I bought a screen. Don't why they don't make the GS more 'adventure' from the start by adding a bigger screen and better luggage mountings.

@exeterrider Год назад

Wow , its like going back in time! Thats an oldie!

@THE_SNAPP 4 года назад

Another great review, man. I told you I was going to try and catch up on your videos...glad I came across this one. I mentioned before I own a g310gs, for two years now. The bouncy headlight doesn't bother me, I'm actually glad it gives me extra visibility to other cars and so forth. I've taken mine off road quite a bit and have fun with it there. Anything over 70mph gets pretty buzzy, but I Don't spend much time riding that way so it's bearable. My son rides a Honda CBR 500R and we did have a drag race the other day...I held my own through the first 3 gears but he pulled away after that. I'll do an owner 2-year review on it within the next month or two and post it to my channel, but you are spot on with your limited time review. You asked could it be your only bike. That is what I still wrestle with some. I have a CRF 250 for off road, so I mostly ride this on road. I go on group rides and keep up with people just fine. Even with my wife riding on it with me. I have found often enough that I wish it handled 75+mph a little better. But it is still my only road bike. My friends who ride cruisers generally can't keep up with me in the canyons, and bigger adventure bikes struggled keeping up with me off road...they all run away from me on straight aways, but I didn't buy it to ride straight for miles and miles. Anyway, I'm rambling...great review brother!

@exeterrider 4 года назад

Thanks, have you had any issues with it, flat battery's, etc? Did you get the stand recall sorted? And how many miles have you done?

@THE_SNAPP 4 года назад

@@exeterrider When I took it in for it's 500 mile oil change they gave me a new battery...they indicated it was running low, but I hadn't noticed anything. Since then I have had to charge my battery a couple times because I let it sit too long in the winter. Since then I keep a trickle charge on it and start it at least once a week during the winter. Yep, I got the stand recall taken care of. There was also a recall due to brake calipers, but that also has been resolved. Mine also had a bounce in the front at about 40mph. They put a new front tire on at no charge and it hasn't been an issue since. I only have 1,500 miles on it. I only ride it for fun...I don't commute on it. I may start doing that some, but that was not a factor in buying it.

@exeterrider 4 года назад

@@THE_SNAPP intresting thanks. I am still a big fan of the 310. I guess the vibes put me off a bit when I was comparing to the Honda cb300. Honda was also a good choice but it was VERY close! I'd like a 310 now for commuting rather than taking the nc750 lump 😉thanks for that info👍I'm hoping to review the 310R sometime this year. Even though its much the same as the GS🍻

You don''t need to service your bike @ BMW garage to keep your warranty, just use BMW service parts and torque everything to spec. - keep receipts and notes.

@vanyalizza9871 5 лет назад

Hello Exeter rider which one do you prefer between the gs and the Honda Cb500 x ? Cheers

@exeterrider 5 лет назад

Hi Vanya, I am afraid that me and the CB500x didnt get on too well (check out my review on it). I still think it is a good A2 licence bike but that is as fars as it goes. The Honda is also much more refined and they are bullet proof as we know but the 310 is just different. My gut is saying between the 2 I would have the BMW. If you asked the BMW or the 300R then I may swing towards the 300R but depends which way the wind was blowing that day. There wouldn't be alot init!! apart from the £1000 odd saving buying the 310!

Have been thinking about 310s. I've also been looking at the Chinese brand called Zontes. They've got a few 310's for £4k new. Have you had a chance to check them out?

@exeterrider 4 года назад

I have seen them yes, I think you will be better off with the BMW. Much more of a bike. Have you considered the Benelli TRK502? I test rode a benelli 502C today and was impressed!! If its a budget thing go for the BMW!! Zontes will depreciate very quickly too!!

@WookieTurner 4 года назад

@@exeterrider the benelli trk 502 x is currently my favourite that is been looking at. I've been looking at the cb500x and the nc750x, but with my limited budget, and the fact I really like the look of the benelli, I'm thinking I'll get on to one next year

@Alex Turner I'll do my best. Someone dropped out early this week. Damaged the crash bars and spring somehow. They are getting to get it booked into the workshop but they are over Stechford as it is. Ironic that is the one I went in to try today. I'll see what I can do for you. Change of plan I'll try to get the 502c up Friday next week so you can at least see something with the same engine.

@kassiedreaneai7459 3 года назад

You move the camera too fast on the all over closeups near video end. Makes it blur a bit rather than allows the fine detail one would be looking for in a closeup. Otherwise nice review.

@exeterrider 3 года назад

Fair enough, I'll try to slow down. I'm only a amateur and learning all the time👍🍻

@jonathandeeley6276 5 лет назад

Hi mate, how does the engine compare to the CB300R, do you get the rattle/vibration that everyone complains about on the 300R around 5 - 7000rpm? Power wise I've read that the Beemer isn't any quicker than the Honda, what are your thoughts? It seems from your review that the GS is pulling about the same amou t of revs as the Honda in each gear. How does it compare against the 300R for riding position particularly back wise, I find the Honda is perfect for me as I can ride it for long distances without any back pain. Overall as a bike, better than the Honda, equal or not as good. Good review by the way. Cheers

@exeterrider 5 лет назад

Hi Jon, I thought you may be intrested in this one : ) The beemer vibration is stonger at about the same revs . It's certinly not as quick as the 300R but the gears are longer which may be part of the reason for that which for me (and proberly you ) would make it nicer around town. For example at 30 I am normally in 5th on the R but the 310 is still in 3rd scratching 4th. It dos'nt have the refinement of the Honda but doe's have other things the honda lacks and is certainly less jumpy I found. But no for vibrations that you hate your better off with the Honda. Riding position on the 310 was much better,and the bars are at a good height, I would say your almost upright on it really. You would get on well with it but the vibrations would kill it knowing what your like with that. Hope alls good with ya mate!

@jonathandeeley6276 5 лет назад

Great, thanks matey, just interested for the future whenever I come to change the Honda, probably stick with the Honda route. Looked at the G310R when it became available in the UK but due to the fact that BMW couldn't supply and a dealer in the Bham area who couldn't give a dam I went the Honda route. I know the early release of models had quality issues, hope they are now sorted for the owners who have bought one. Look forward to future videos. All best.

@oilers48 Месяц назад

Are you seated more upright on the GS rather than the R?

@exeterrider Месяц назад

I'd say you're "slightly" more lent over on the 310R but it's still quite an upright machine👍

@oilers48 Месяц назад

Thank you! Does it make any sense to buy the R since the GS can do both off and on road?

@exeterrider 27 дней назад

Yes the R still makes sense, and it's a good road bike...also looks really cool too I think.

@marcinpiak3540 Год назад

Hi there exeter rider. How was the seat height for you? I've heard some people moan it's too high?

@exeterrider Год назад

It's middle of the road. The suspension is plush on the back so sinks down quite a lot. Its OK all things considered for me👍🍻
