After seeing the 1300 GSA launch on Friday, I went and bought a new 1250 GSA Triple Black on Saturday
Congrats.
I already did that after reveal of the non adventure version 🤓
I’m not to worried about the reselling value of the 1250 adv 😂
Wise man.
Best pick..
more for me.i got the gsa 1250 2022 and now buying the gsa 1300🫶🏻🫶🏻
It's been a long wait but at least now I've seen it I can cross it off my wishlist.
facts
As a current '21 GSA owner, my initial thought was WTF? My reaction is still, WTF. I don't get it. Not one bit. Not a fan at all.
I get that it's a tank, and it's probably going to prove to be an absolutely phenomenal touring bike. BUT, I just cannot get past how fugly it appears to my eyes. It looks like a massive refrigerator for those long rides to Starbucks, and a place to store the 6-pack of frozen macciatos on the way back.
Google new lexus and new Land Cruiser all the industry is shifting towards boxy designs
@@thamer_alajmi that’s all fine and good. Doesn’t mean I have to like how it looks. But then I’m not likely to buy one, so my subjective opinion here probably matters little 😊
I hit a deer and totaled my 23’ GS1250 back in May and just replaced it with a 24’ GSA1250. Glad I did before they sell out.
BMW off road adventure refrigerator. It's like someone stuck a headlight on a photocopier.
I do not understand why manufacturers keep making non waterproof bags that are meant to be attached external to the bike. We all ride in the rain at times and I want my gear to stay dry
I know some states in the USA have legalized Marijuana but it looks the engineering department at BMW has spent way to much time in those states with this bike
Think it was acid !😊
Ive been waiting for the reveal of the 1300 GSA for almost 2 years, and im deeply dissapointed, the ggod part is that now i dont have any doubts about the bike to get, and i will get the Africa Twin adventure sports100%
I just bought the AT 2024 /DCT/EERA- don't worry it is the best bike I ever had (I also already had 2 GS...). Right decision - look forward to this great bike!
@@markuspirkner8492 awesome! are you going to install Lone Rider luggage? im a bit concerned about the mini bags in the crash bars, idk if they fit well/look well, im looking forward to buy mine, also with DCT, and go and explore Europe :)
Im getting old (43) because this looks like a toaster you can ride.
I would like to meet the designer to ask him if he was on medication to draw something like this.
cubism is back in fashion
Look like a Lego acid trip gone wrong. Pu🤮
ducati team had a party the night after the gsa 1300 introduction.
Not only DUCATI - the HONDA team is still partying.....🤣😂🤩
Its the LEGO BIKE with 2 air conditioners as a tank...
I switched from BMW to Triumph this year and I am so glad I did.
With the release of that behemoth, I’m sure it has just increased the value of my GSA 1250 Rallye HP., as it will be more desirable now that not too many are keen on this 1300 beast.
I would definitely pick the GSA 1300.
Because it makes everyone around you laugh 🤣 during the ride, BMW adventure bike is all about bulkiness and weird looking, so this one fit perfectly
BMW employed the designers from Lego when making the 1300 ADV
I have been a loyal customer of BMW for 25 years, only motorcycle brand I have owned. What a disappointment, I can’t understand how they could mess it up so bad.
It looks amazing and rugged and futuristic. I love it!
You know like everybody else I was like wtf. And now the more I see different pics. It kind of looks less shocking ! It is going to be a phenomenal beast.
In Italy they are laughing their asses off😎
If I wanted a Unimog, I’d stick with the Mercedes manufactured vehicle. Since I travel by motorcycle, I’ll stick with my 1200GSA until it has no legs left. Then I’ll be looking for a gently used 1250GSA.
It shouldn't be up to the third party innovators and after market firms to make your new £20K + GS look passable. This is about as expensive an off road/tourer as you can get and it is unacceptable that almost everyone thinks its hideous. Looks are obviously subjective but not THIS subjective. BMW have contracted the post modern disease of making everything ugly. Well, ugly isn't the new beautiful, it's the same old ugly. They started with their cars and it seems to have spread to Motorrad. It's really not good enough.
The disappointment of the decade.
To say that is to avoid every Honda released over the same period.
The overstatement of the decade 🤪
can t wait to buy it
I love the design of the new Adventure. BMW has done a lot of things right here. The design may be too innovative for many here, but the motorbike will find its buyers.
It looks like a large pannier on 2 wheels ! The designers should be sent to mars .
The design sure seems to be polarizing, but I love it! Makes it look like a real tank that can go anywhere and do anything... and like you said, there's going to be a ton of awesome 3rd party accessories that will go very nicely with those fairing mounts
I have a blacked out 1250 GSA and love it. Have just ordered my new 1300. The GS 1300 is currently the top selling adventure bike and this new GSA will outsell all other manufacturers. No matter the different views on its looks at the moment ….. minds will change, the current 1250 will eventually look dated and that’s change.
SO glad I managed to secure the last (allegedly) 1250 Triple black adventure in the U.K! las week.
Was waiting for this but had to go for it before I lucked out and BOY am I glad i did!
I think the residuals on 1250's got a little stonger last week...
SHOCKINGLY ill informed design!
Maybe design something to hide that bulky flat square thing between the seat & handlebars?
Thank God, I will buy one for myself
I initially thought it was hideous, but I’m really starting to like it. Will be getting the Triple Black with ASA!
Is weed legal in Germany?
I witnessed the introduction live as well on the 5'th, and as so many my first reaction was as well 'oh dear'. But after a few days now I do start to feel that there is definitively 'something' about this new GSA. I would not be surprised that eventually this will become again a huge bestseller. Heck my next bike might be one when I replace my current 1250 GS.
I think...,; in a year people will have calmed down & think this *armor* is beautiful! When it came to the Apple Watch Ultra, all the influencers were screaming: too big, too heavy, too clunky!!! And now? Everyone is wearing it...! I think the new one is just great, unique & great... it's just charismatic & I'd like to have it 🤷♂️🙂
Talk about a massive overreaction. Sure the side panel on the tank isn’t beautiful but it sure is functional. TBH after a few days of looking at it I think I’m ordering one. That trophy version is beautiful!
I have just purchased a 2024 R1250 GSA Rallye. Have also just ordered the Large MotoCase, looking forward to taking delivery and mounting this to my bike. Very keen to see what hardcase panniers lonerider releases in the not too distant future.
A lot of hate going on for the new Rhino, it's grown on me, I like it, the triple black has potential.
Yes it does, as you won't see it in the dark...🤣🤣🤣
Would be my choice, too.
Black hides the imperfections 😊
They're going for more futuristic look
Am i the only person who likes this bike. I will get one for sure. It will be interesting to see how the crash bars will do. I would have preferred an upper bar but let’s wait and see.
Thank you so much for the short walkthrough of the “ears”, attachment points etc.
Exactly what I was after!
When I got my R1200 GSA they called it a tank…guess let engineers enough time and yup, ya da! That said it grows on you, and if the tech holds true it will be quite the tourist machine.
I’ll definitely keep my 2020 HP color GSA.
LEGO approved !
A adventure toaster!
You should definitely do waterproof tank side bags for that GS
I own 1250 and was very disappinted with 1300, especially the smaller back end, but also general looks (just average and not nearly as unique or intimidating as 1250). Now this adventure version I like much more. Its much nore a GS that regular model. However, Im not buying it for the same reasons I didnt buy adventure before. Its too big and too (top?) heavy. I dont need 30 litera of tank. If regular model had this design and back end, that would be a winner for me.
I like it. It's different, yes. But I think it has potential!
A rack for the softluggage and some proper hard cases would be nice!
Due to the large ventilation ducts on the sides, it could be tricky to attach the small side bags to the oem attachment points 🤔
When I first seen it , I thought ' ouch ! ' , but now a few days later , it's growing on me , brutal , but good.
I will not buy anything BMW again after the 1300GSA Silverado they made…No thanks
I’ll keep my Trophy GSA as they called it final version…
yea, as you said "It grows on you", LIKE MOLDY CHEESE!, my 1200gsa is 18 years old and its a keeper!!!
It kind of seems like the main group of people who hate this motorcycle is the traditional GS rider! I freaking love this bike,both the regular 1300 and the GSA. And I’ve never been a fan of the looks of the GS lineup before.
As someone who likes the chunky roads and with a bike on its side often…looking forward to the crash bar system!!
New 1300 is a joke.
Bienvenue en France 🇫🇷✌🏻 Peut-être lâcher ma 1200 gsa pour la 1300 gsa why not !
Bought your lonerider cases for our GSA 1200... Definately want to traid it for the new 1300 GSA and can't wait for it to be available in the dealerships. Would LOVE to have Lone Rider cases and top case for the new 1300 GSA. Hope that's in the future Regards from Florida USA.
I bought 2014 gs triple black at the first look at "her". Now I saw 1300gsa now to confirm that I got the right one.
For the tank bags, try spaying with suede shoe protection as it prevents water damage to suede shoes, I can only 'assume' a good dose on the Tank Bags would do the trick
I thought it was hideous when I first saw it in the reveal. Now that the shock is subsiding, I’m starting to like the look. Hope to get one in 2025 with ASA! Ride safe…
Similar to you.... the look of the latest incarnation of the GSA is growing on me slowly. I'm sure you'll come up with some nice set of accessories which will make this bike look cool! I really like your design of the standard GS! Keep us posted!
Mega fan! love the design... sorry but I do. I do not like the 1300 GS at all, but this one... yes!
No SOUL AT ALL!!! .. well I stayed with my 1200 triple black..... good luckG AY BoYs!
It'll grow on folks and do well. Nothing a little powdercoating and farkles can't fix.
Nope, I will wait for the next update, the one that wil not look like a Transformer.
Most riders, say that the 1200 gs when it first came out was an ugly tractor, the Adventure 1300 now surely fits the bill. Ugly tractor.
This new model has convinced me to buy an R1250 GSA.
They managed to drop 26 lb off the new GS to 523, but the new GSA is 2 lb heavier at 593 lb. Obviously better wind protection for on road cruising, but looks top heavier and less off road capable than the 1250 GSA. Only riding it will tell the true story though.
And if you compare it to the oil cooled R1200GSA I own, the new R1300GSA is 33lbs heavier! I was really hoping for something lighter than my bike and less…. Ugly.
maybe some "plugs" or "fillers" for locations like tank bag attachment point on the tank to make it smooth or cleaner look. Hells yes please on the lard luggage!!!!
That could definitely use some different bags. Some top loading bags instead of the clam shell side loaders.
Bags with zippers on an "adventure" bike, shown in the dirt on promotional pictures. Well, this says it all... :-)
I've gone full circle from instantly disliking it to wanting one, most people will feel the same
Ugly or not, in its class - bigger adv bikes, Ducati, KTM , Harley and Triumph- BMW has the most extended network of dealers. It matters a lot for the future buyers. And yes, you are right. "What beep is that?!" At least in Europe, right now, from my understanding, the demand is very poor, just as poor as for the simple GS. Perhaps some discounts will appear.
lone rider head light protect and rackless moto bags for the new gsa but i bet your on the case !
Two words......vomit inducing.
That bike is hideous. But I was already not a BMW fan, so I’m definitely not the target market.
Never mind developing new products for that thing. I’d love to see LoneRider develop some products for other adventure bikes, especially Triumph Tigers.
This motorcycle looks so futuristic. It's not bad. It's looks little bit strange but it's perfect.
It's a Photo Copier with a Headlight😂
Finalmente una vera adventure che non somiglia a una panigale rialzata ma una vera jeep. Complimenti top
Meine ganz persönliche Meinung: " Was hat sich BMW dabei gedacht?" Optisch keine Konkurrenz zu 1250 GSA. Mag man da mit technischen Neuerungen auf den Busch klopfen, so man sie braucht. Optisch jedoch könnte ich damit meinen Sohn vielleicht begeistern. Er steht auf LEGO. Aber es werden sich sicherlich mehrere finden, denen die "Neue" gefällt.
Looks like its a cross between a pan America and a lego bike ......not what you would call pretty 😂
I just bought a new 1250 adventure because I’m not to sure this one will grow on me…
We’ll see in 5 years.
I’m going to purchase a 2025 1300 GS!!
An absolute toaster of an of an adventure bike
I love it ❤
I wonder will there be a new F900GSA in the near future? The GS completely redesigned but the GSA only engine and frame... I hope the don't walk the 1300 way....
Too ugly to ride. I’ll stick with my 2018 GSA.
This parody of a bike is the best proof that the adventure “class” has lost every connection with reality. Shrinking Willy? Get yourself a crossbreed between a tank and a tractor and still never dare to leave the tarmac. One advantage though: We now know in advance that the head on Beemers rider is too full of himself to greet back.
Make some hard luggage to match the top box. Mine still has not come yet by the way 😢
Its like the new 1300GS everyone hates it, complaining but then buys it. 😂
Great video production Alex, lighting was perfect and the format is really engaging - good work as always. Now... the 'Plastic Panzer', regardless of my spoof video (still waiting for TH-cam to ban it, Facebook already has) I actually like the new design. It's funky, brash and controversial, which is probably the intention. I also think the tank bag attachment is a great idea. You guys will need to get creative with this one, for sure. I'm guessing you're going to make pannier versions of the new MotoCase, which would look awesome IMO. Cheers, Nick TBB
Not the most beautiful daughter,but mother Gs/Gsa R1200/1250 was not most beautiful Mc either.
Automatic gearbox and no clutch lever is a bigger problem for me so I will keep my 2011 R1200GSA.
Any chance you will also make new luggage for the new Moto Guzzi Stelvio?
New bags for the Stelvio would be nice. Something top loading. No more side loading clam shells.
Alter die ist potthässlich ich bleib bei meiner 1250er avd bis sie zusammen fällt!
I think you are brave to swim against the tide of negativity. It’s shows complete immaturity when someone reacts so quickly to something new and innovative which is something BMW have been doing that for years. These old guys thinking they can sway the market with their “I’m not buying it" when they know they really are because their simply isn’t a better bike on the market.
Happy I ordered a 1300GS, should arrive any day.
Looking forward to your creative new products guys.
I don’t like previous gs. This i like it:). Looks diferent
"Adventure bike" - as long as the adventures are within towing distance of a dealership. Who ever heard of an adventure motorcycle for which the manufacturer does not provide service information ?
each drop is 1500 euro ? more ?
I like my 1250 GSA, and with the quirkiness of the shifting, I will keep it. The new GSA looks boxy, and with the current price tag, I will not be getting one. In the future, I may downgrade power to a more capable bike, like maybe a KTM. The GSA is ok, but it is like getting a second house when doing its maintenance in Canada.
GS popularity is tanking for sure LMAO
GS was allways ugly but great for ride, i think that single seat conversion will be good thing to do
They can’t be serious, does it come with a tow bar? I’m keeping my 1250.
