The BMW R1250GS gets a day trip to France, wearing Michelin Road 6's. Was it any good?

Took the BMW R1250GS to France for the day, to stretch its legs and see how it went, when the pace picks up. 200 miles.
Also tried out the Rallye screen on the Motorway.
A general shake down trip before heading off to the Alps in August.
The Michelin Road 6's were put on last week, replacing the oem Michelin Adventure tyres, that were noisy at 35-40 mph.
Bike performed very well and made me smile many times.
Michelin's performed very well.
It may not be the fastest, best handling etc etc , BUT what a great machine.
Enjoy the ride 😃

Really enjoy your videos. Appreciate the insight on the tires. I have a mostly identical bike. Do not know what causes the grip tingle but mine was solved with Grip puppies. The larger foam did wonders for comfort and no more wrist problems at all. Keep sharing your progress and adventures with the GS. They are such amazing bikes. I am just at a month or so owning mine and love it.

Nice little spin. I hope to do some of France next summer. I've a 1250GS on order for Jan delivery. I'm currently selling my 800GS to help fund. I'm looking forward to the new bike. I used to get tingles in the fingers when I had rings or watch on, or my grip was too tight. I now take off rings and watch, and just relax my grip a bit. That has solved the issue for me. Being aggressive on the bike does cause you to grip tighter. ;-) Those Road 6's look good and are definitely on my list for first change.

I have the R1250GS ralley 2022 with not quite 2000 kms on it and have no vibration coming through the bars. Gear assist works fine above 3rd and keeping the revs up and no revs on the way down as explained by the bmw sales rep. Didn’t need to rev it that high to get smooth gear changes. No tingling whatsoever. By far the best bike I’ve owned.

Hi, Lovely video’s. Watching them from The Netherlands. I’ve got the exact same bike, except for the wheels, mine has got the black-spoke-variant with since this week also the Michelin Road 6. My bike was delivered on bridgestone tyres. They make also a lot of noise. About the tingling, I am also getting a tingling righthand when driving with my summer airflow gloves on the highway.

Got the exact same bike except cast wheels, no vibes on the hands although I fit grip puppies to all my bikes, no high speed wobble and the quick shifter gets better as the miles go up, currently on 4K miles and works well 2500 revs and up, seemless up and down gear changes now, same height as yourself and this is the first bike I haven’t changed the screen on, it’s spot on for me, oh and never had a numb bum even on a 7 hour trip, you’ll need to mould yourself to the bike I think. One thing I agree on is the bloody noise up the fork tunnel, ridiculous. Safe biking, enjoy.

I wonder if the right hand tingling is down to mode as I get it when I ride all day in dynamic Pro setting and I'm running on Bridgestone s . Also a tip on quick shift when your under 5k I've found it smooth as butter shutting throttle briefly just as you engage gear shift, takes a bit of practise to time it right but every up change apart from 1 into 2 is smooth.

yes you do, but I am used to the touch screen anyway. Silly thing is there are numerous contact pins to the rear of the zumo that aren't used by the zumo power cradle and it wouldn't surprise me if the extra pins could be used by the whizz wheel for control.🙁

I only have about five years of experience, but for me, hand tingles are always related to my posture, my lean or lack of lean towards the handlebar, and the angle of my elbow. I’ve ridden a parallel twin, a triple, a 4 cylinder and now a GS.

New R1250 GS TE Exclusive (2019) rider - I have also been surprised by the tingle in the throttle hand, not something I have seen many comments about from all the fan-boys/girls. Had my bike about a month or so and done 1,000 miles. Certainly notice the tingle when riding progressively (not as fast as you, I might add) but when you are accelerating, braking, accelerating again...... etc. But a quick bit of cruise control for a minute or so, and then fine again. Also, it seems to be easing a bit. Either I am getting used to it, or the bike is bedding in (it is a verylow mileage bike - only got 2500 on the clock. Will be fitting Road 6s as soon as I need to change.

Haven’t had the issue since the bar end weights . Great bike just hauled the wife and luggage to the Brecon Beacons in Wales still went really well and made me smile , even 2 up .my road 6 rear has squared off terribly as my service technician told me when I collected the bike from its 12 month service a few days ago . Need to change the tyres but won’t be putting road 6’s back on again the front veered to the left either in France or Uk …. before the rear had squared off , so the search begins again . Great tyre the road 6 … but !

Great video's I have the same bike inc spoked wheels. I'm a big fan of the Metzler Roadtech's 01had them on the GS1200 and all previous bikes going back to 2016. The 1250 came with Anakee's tried them they were ok but not for what they are a 90/10 tyre. Went to my tyre fitter and he persuaded me to try the Road 6. They have been on the bike approx 2k miles. I have to admit I'm not a fan they are noisier the front has lost grip on several occasions in both dry and wet conditions and do not inspire me with confidence in the corners. I will be changing to Metzler in the near future.

I fitted Grip Buddies (texture like shark skin) rather than Grip Puppies, they increase the weedy diameter of the standard grips too. Also Evotech bar end weights..no issues at all now with tingling fingers after a spirted ride. Takes a little longer for the heat to soak through when heated grips switched on is the only downside.

I rode the new AT in the uk on the honda adventure experience , the tubed tyre off road one and that went really well , blew the 2017 one out of the water , it was that much better . Annoyingly i have a trait of always wanting something else in the mancave 🙈ride safe

I have found that using solely high octane fuel results in a harder combustion on my 1200RT (2012) and therefore more vibration through to the handlebars with the increased likelihood of hand tingling (white finger). Using a mixture of E10 95 octane fuel and higher octane in the tank (75/25 ratio, using Tesco Momentum ) gives a smoother combustion burn whilst at the same time giving a crisper / more responsive throttle response that one hopes to achieve when using higher octane fuel. Note that not all higher octane brands are the same, for example BP Ultimate is just 97 octane whereas Tesco Momentum and Esso Synergy you get a higher 99 octane, therefore if using BP Ultimate I have found a ratio of around 60/40 to works well.

Standard road 6 . You may want to go with the stiffer side walls if you are going to carry loads of gear and pillion etc . Very good tyres . If the standard road 6 is good enough for Nigel Mansell’s son’s GS , who runs my bmw dealership , then they are good enough for me 👍

I just swapped my Anakee's for Road 6 and yes, I experience the shimmy as well. Rode 5000 miles on Anakee's with no shimmy at all and now I have shimmy on higher speed. I also have topbox and it's Givi plastic one that is supposed to be aerodynamic. Anyway, the setup of the bike is the same as it was with Anakee's. However, I noticed something strange. If I try (on any speed) to lift my hands off of the handlebars, the bike strongly pulls to the left. It was not the case with previous tyres. Maybe the alignment problem? Road 6's now have 500 miles. As for tingling in your hands, I don't feel it but I have grip puppies installed the day I bought the bike (January 2021 - new). I will get back to the tyre shop to see if there was something wrong with the alignment. Did you try lifting off your hands of the handlebars for a moment?

The tingling is a typical thing I believe. I still have it myself at times, and lots of people i know riding the gs have it. (and only on the right handle bar) A simple hack is to put foam covers over the rubbers it seems. However the more you ride the more you also get used to it. Me I prefer the tighter throttle control over the softer foam covers, so I have to ride more ;)

I've had the rallye screen on a 2017 GS and and 2019 GSA. Found it works best in the lowest setting. This produces clean air but takes the weight of the wind of you for high speed motorway riding. I note you have it raised. That didn't work for me and generated turbulence. Rode to Lisbon and back from London with it no probs. So much nicer in traffic (better vision), looks better and is somehow more fun.

Can I just say that the GS has a "gear shift assist" as BMW call it not a quick shifter, it is useless in 1st & 2nd but can be used up and down in all gears at all revs and speed from 2nd onward.

What makes the R6s good is when it’s raining they are solid and predictable and their wear is pretty good and even👌as for the tingling since fitting both the fives and now the sixes I’ve noticed a similar situation,I wonder I wonder🤔I never had this issue with the previous Road Pilots🤔

Outside of the US, can RU-vidrs really get in trouble with showing their speedo when speeding? I've not seen an American RU-vidr do that.
