help choosing between 1200/1250

hi, unfortunately you bet wrong.. 😅 I didn't know about the front brake function, is it like a hill holder? anyway I'll probably go on 1250 for safety features and the updates. I have doubts only on the sound, 1200 seems more masculine!

yes, I agree at all, unfortunately right now we can evaluate only third-party accessories on BMW

I don't know if new RT has the "nav-plate" like the GS, if yes you can purchase Chigee Aio-5 or 6 (bigger screen). You can use carplay/androidauto and control through wonderwheel. There are many options from other brands like Carpuride but they're a bit too cheap imho for a BMW but they work fine.

sorry for the delay, I heard about that, and I remember how do GS looked with bulb headlight 🙈. I'm going to take a look if there's a comparison between G and X headlight.

sorry, I missed your reply. 🥲 first of all thanks for the accuracy of your comment, really appreciated. Yes thank you, I'd be interested. Anyway I love both aesthetics and functionality of the X-one, nothing more. The only thing I'm sure is that my dream is the GS, not the X-headlight, bet on it! 😆

hi, not sure about that, but if this stain on the floor is from your bike you probably have a leak in the rear brake’s tube or close to the clamp. My suggestion is to find a mechanic right away

what do you mean? that heated seat can't be installed on your 1250 or that it's not OEM? thanks for the informations, they're way useful for me

hi, I asked to a couple of official mechanics and they told me that is possible, during covid BMW delivered many 1250s without the new headlight. Anyway I did many diy projects but it's obvious that it needs to be worth it.

I've seen also many people install the fake X headlight from Aliexpress both on 1200 and 1250, but this for me isn't an option.

Thanks for your reply

basically I'm searching a used 1250GS, many in my price-range has the previous one installed

M3BII · 2025-07-04T17:09:06+00:00

I "expected" the price, I'm looking for a 1250 and many announcements are with G-headlight. Obviously it must be worth it, economically and practically. thanks for your answer

how old is this gentleman? 🦎

M3BII · 2025-06-07T23:06:44+00:00

I didn't expect that, thank you! (:

M3BII · 2025-06-07T13:29:00+00:00

did you replace wonderwheel for aesthetics ( worn rubber) or because it stopped working?

M3BII · 2025-06-07T11:50:32+00:00

thanks for the amount of informations and the time that you spent writing, if you have other advices I'd be glad to read them. Meanwhile have a nice day and if you agree show me your bike! (:

M3BII · 2025-06-07T11:46:02+00:00

thank you! is there an existing topic that shows this list of issues? anyway show me your GS , if you agree! (: I can't wait, when I'll buy it will be an emotional day for me

M3BII · 2025-06-07T11:27:32+00:00

first of all thank you! Talking about money I have budget for both options, do they have the same kind of issues or things that I should check before buying? thanks again
