My new BMW GSA1300

[Robarano]

As already slightly mentioned, I have bought a lightly used (8 months old) and new to me, BMW GS Adventure 1300 in Triple Black. Only 1,400 miles and it's got every single option including the auto shift with no clutch lever. Adaptive ride height, Adaptive cruise control, Rear collision detection, Lane departure. Also the standard stuff, heated everything, LED headlight, electric screen.

I bought it about a month ago, but got the dealer to order me the 3 piece panniers in black, so have waited a little while for them to come and for the bike to be delivered to me (although I'm still waiting for one of the panniers to be sent onto me).

@Noobie , please contain your excitement !

She is the replacement for Helga, who went off to a new home around Sept last year. After pondering a name, I have decided on...........'Helga' Why change a good thing !

Agree. I was trying to think how to word it politely... there isnt a way, its hideous.
But each to their own and i guess he cant see most of it while on board...

I guess they are both 'The Forums Most' type bike: but the Tesi is 'The Forums most aesthetically pleasing, and sveltest bike - not the fattest and ugliest

Wise, leave it there and walk





It's a bit better now you've de-decaled it though

There was a time when a triple black didn't involve 2/3rds silver and grey

That bike will eat miles effortlessly. Have you any big trips planned?

Austria and back on a tank full....















Did someone mention a tank?

 

[Noobie]

He has, his nearest waitrose has closed so he will have to go to the next town over

 

[Hugo Magnus]

Waitrose deliver is the answer. It leaves more time for …..

Cheers Rob. The forum's most aesthetically pleasing bike now sounds the most pleasing too since that Termi pipe went on. Goes to Ducati Sunderland a week on Monday for it's service and MOT. If I can find my way there without a sat-nav....

I'm bearing up more or less. It's been a grim winter for work and weather. Hoping for better through the summer. Should be able to get out on the bike on Sunday. Tomorrow looks a bit shit.

I think you missed a trick with that exhaust. If youd had the one on this bike

You could have put a spud in each of the holes and rev it when you see people in caravans, peow peow peow peow, take out 4 caravans in one go

 

[Dox]

^^^ That's the V4

 

[Noobie]

I know, but that exhaust is great for potato firing or as it's known in Ireland, potato padel

Is the D16 having therapy as a result of sharing the Garage with one of “them”

I'll be doing something in the summer, possibly Germany way and down into Italy.

I also have a trip booked to the Picos in October
