Most durable,bulletproof and easiest bike to maintain is BMW GS/GSA. Mine has only 130.000km on ! P.S BMW has best warranty and service in industry, i just got recall on driveshaft and swingarm,everything is free and BMW is paying for pick-up and drop off after recall repairs. What other brand has that level of service??? NONE!!!

@UncleWally3 Год назад
At seventy years old my fully farkled AT, especially with an upgraded seat, suspension and other ergonomic and functional adjustments ($!) suits me fine. Just put 5000 kilometers on it this month . . . plenty comfortable. I owned the BMW, put 160 000 kilometers on that beast, but I couldn’t stand the local dealership and ridiculous expenses for maintenance and parts. Both bikes have pros and cons, both are amazing.

Love my GS. It is more capable than I am and has carried me through BDRs, Smokey 500, and lots of long highway miles throughout US and Canada. Enduro Pro mode is fun and the power is great for lofting a wheel over ruts and small obstacles. I would like to get something smaller to ride the really rough stuff but the GS will stay in the stable regardless of what else I buy.

This is one of the best GSA 1250 videos. You skillfully demonstrate the way this bike is designed to be ridden. I road my GSA 1250 12,000 miles last year across the USA. Some off-road, some gravel and some camping, mostly Highway and hotels. I confess I haven’t boogied down a dirt road at that clip on my BMW. I am braver doing that type of riding on my KTM 500 XC-W. You have inspired me to go to the next level on my GSA. Thank you.

A lot of thought and effort into this video and the key advantages and disadvantages of the GSA. I have owned two GSes, both pre water boxers and put around 60K miles on each. Very DIY friendly for maintenance and quite capable. With my size, age and skill I have moved to smaller adventure bikes for more off-road confidence but at the cost of on-road comfort. Thanks for sharing.

Great bike. Can't wait to see what you say when you install the Tractive suspension on the rear. After my original suspension blew up (60,000 miles fully loaded) I went with Tractive front and back and I am so pleased with the way the bike handles now. It feels like being on a sailboat on a smooth/flat sea. Fantastic review.

I do all my own Maintenance and Repairs, so I don’t have that Costs of taking it to the Shop for anything. I’m 62 and have 4 Fusions in my Neck, and 2 in my lower Back.

@sthr2110 Год назад
I should hope it's better than the AT, given how much more expensive it is. $5k-$6k. It had better be. As for myself, I have a '22 ATAS DCT and considered the R1250GSA. The AT was/is much more fun to ride and is ultimately more capable off road, stock vs stock. The GS feels less top heavy but that's the only superior aspect I noticed.

I’ve wanted a GSA since 2010 and don’t know why I waited 12 years before I bought one. It is absolutely a phenomenal bike! I am interested in eventually getting a Skydio 2 drone. Where did you find that remote mount? It would be a pleasure to run into you someday. Keep flying with the rubber side down!

They’re real nice and all. I rode R1100 and R1200 GSAs for many years. But I traded my last one on a Husqvarna Norden 901 over a year ago, and I’m glad I did. It’s about 150 lbs lighter, and the center of gravity is low, because the fuel tank is low down by the engine. And it has a 21” front wheel. It’s got 105 hp and 100 lbs torque. I don’t need 150 hp off-road. I’ve got the Explorer mode and all the extras the Expedition model has, except the heated seat and suspension upgrade. And I don’t need them. I’ll never go back to the GSA. I do, however, own a BMW F 650 GS Dakar. I love BMWs!

There are several makers, but here’s the one I’m using. It’s about 60% less amzn.to/44ov0hZ

Thanks for another good review. In 2019 I went shopping for an Africa Twin and came home with a 1200 GS. I like everything about it other than the dealer maintenance experience. For example the 30k service is just an oil change, for which any BMW dealer wants $400. (I did it myself for $60 in parts.) Thanks again.

Yeah, I refuse to take motorcycles to the dealership. I can do just about anything myself unless it involves a specific software that’s not available to me as a DIY person

I really like this channel, and boy, the aireal footage is so awesome!!! Thank you! Would you mind sharing the exact location of those trails? Also, I'll highly appreciate if you do dedicated video of what drone you use and video shooting techniques. Thanks again!

It looks like he’s using the Skydio 2 or 2+ drone. It’s a phenomenal drone.

It is the Skydio 2. I have a video on it in my catalog. The trail is just off of Fourth of July Pass near the military Road. If you take the main gravel road, you can’t miss it on the left.

Great video and list of all the accessories. What drone are you using? Is that a DJI Mini? It really does great at avoiding the trees. Crazy good.

I just picked up a pretty accessorized R1250 GS non-adventure. It's got all the Touratech doo-dads already bolted to it. I plan to use for 90% road touring. Very similar story to yours. I was looking at geting an Africa Twin Adventure Sports and they are just unobtainium and have been for a while. Really sours the experience. Unless you want to pick up a DCT from someone that unfortunately bought one and is uninspired by the DCT and is now selling it. Then I saw a GS come up on FB marketplace and just executed. EPIC motorcycle. The AT has it's merits, but I'll be damned if GSes aren't better in many many ways, not much more money, and WAAAY more obtainable. R1250 GSes are available all over the place if you are willing to spend the money. And if you don't quite have the money R1200's are very available as well. Beautiful motorcycle! I don't think there is one with more area under the curve of capabilities as the GS and on top of this the GS is probably the most luxurious and comfortable for street touring among all the ADV bikes.

Low maintenance shaft drive, good reliability, quality construction, supreme comfort, good aftermarket support, good dealer network, tons of torque... hard to beat a GS. I always wondered what it would be like with quality aftermarket suspension.

Man that Skydio drone is awesome, great footage! So sad they shut down their consumer drone business :( Maybe that's because I didn't buy it, but I wanted to!

Better than the Africa twin unless you have one leg like me and need the automatic transmission because you don’t have a left foot. I lost my left in a freak accident on a 2016 bmw r12200rt. I really miss that bike. It was totaled along with my left leg. Pretty much stick to riding my spyder now. I’ve gone back and forth thinking about an Africa twin since I don’t need a foot to change gears.

Hello! It's a pleasure to watch you handle the gsa, congratulations also for the nice comment while driving, I own a gs 1250 and have a question about the panel instead of the rear seat that you mention SW MOTECH. Can you let me know the model number because I can't find it. Thank you and I look forward to your contributions on the youtube page. lp Igor
