couldn't help but smile when i saw my baby back...the bike that is ;)...riding gs for almost 30 years now...from here to china...no matter when, even ice and snow wont' hold it back...it's always gonna be by your side...have fun!
Two patient (NOT !!) years left for my retirement and my present from me to me when I shall experience the glee you evidently felt while picking up the best motorcycle in the world. May in come soon for me.
I had the Hiedenau K60 Scouts installed when I bought the bike. I had great luck with them on my F800GS, but find the front tire awful noisy around 80-100 km/h. (50-60mph)
Those look like Heidenau K60 Scouts. They're good 50/50 bias-ply tires. I had a set on my GSA for a trip from Washington to Alaska in 2015 and got pretty good wear from them. Just be careful on wet pavement since the rear tire can hydroplane at over ~60mph/100kmh.
Hi Donald. Did you find the Hiedenau front tire noisy on your GSA? I had mine put on when I bought the bike, but the front tire makes a awful howl at between 80 and 100km/h.(50-60mph) It's so noisy that I would not put another one on my R1200GS. Thanks for watching!

Lucky man, three beauties.
Congratulations to both of you! Have had the pleasure of riding it around Bali, what a bike!
Thanks Spirit Biker! That must have been a great ride for you in Bali. Thanks for watching!

Congratulations ! I have the f800gs, some day I will do the same! The GSA looks awesome in those colors!
Thank you! I loved my 800GS but I love my 1200 even more when traveling with my honey.
I love the color. I go to bmw tomorrow to discuss my purchase... can't wait!!

Why wait? You deserve it now! They really are the best motorcycles in the world and you won't ever regret buying one.
Money money money my friend, wish I could right now though lol
New stuff, I love it every time :D
Three years old now and I'm still loving it!
As they say in Ireland, Well Wear.
It was equiped with those tyres from factory or it was your option? Becouse I have Michelin Anakee 2 from factory.

Fine! Will be next.
What tires are you running?

Yes Donald Moe is correct. They are the Heidenau K60 Scouts. I ran them on my F800GS with great results.
