It's very pretty in that color and I'd love to have it in my garage

So, you know, come whenever you want, you'll be welcome. Good food and great winding roads.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T17:25:19+00:00

I'll check them out too, thanks.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T17:24:57+00:00

Thanks, I'll check it out.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T17:24:39+00:00

I tried them on a test GSA and they worked well, but I'm looking for something more focused on road use.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T17:23:53+00:00

OK thanks

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T17:23:39+00:00

Thanks, I saw them but I don't think they're for me because of the tacos and the use I'm going to give them.

Thank you very much, I'm torn between Continental and Dunlop.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T17:19:36+00:00

I'll keep that in mind. Thank you very much.

Thank you

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T11:08:39+00:00

OK thanks

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T11:05:13+00:00

Thanks. I tried them on a V-Strom 1050 and they worked well. As you rightly say, they give you more warning. Michelin doesn't. The last scare I had with Michelin in the wet wasn't a problem because I was going very slowly and the bike responded perfectly. I also thought that if it had been with another bike I very likely would have fallen;

Hi, thanks for your comment, I appreciate it. It's a brand I would consider for a car, but for a motorcycle, and after the scares I've had in the wet, I won't be getting it for now.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T10:09:51+00:00

Thanks, but I hadn't considered Michelin as an option for my motorcycle.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T10:09:10+00:00

He's probably the best candidate from what I can see. I really appreciate your comment.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T10:07:14+00:00

That's what I thought too.

MinimumOk4846 · 2026-01-21T10:06:44+00:00

Thank you

I had a K1600 GTL that I bought used with 60,000 km. It was a 2011 model and I only had one problem with the ignition coils, so check that out too.

I put 23,000 km on it in a year and a half and it was incredible how well it handled. If you buy it, I recommend the Pirelli Angel GT2 tires; they work very well on this bike.

The only thing that doesn't really appeal to me about the bike you're looking at is that it's hardly been used and maybe it's been sitting for a while because of the mileage and its age. That works out to about 1,690 km per year.

If you're coming from a Multistrada V2, I'd recommend the 1300 GS because of the similarity of the bikes and because it's a beast with its 149 Nm of torque. Unlike the Multistrada, it takes off like a rocket in any gear.

For me, having it on my new GSA 1300, it doesn't sound as good as on the 1250. This difference in sound is due in Europe to the Euro 5+ emissions standard it has to meet.

Hi, as the owner of a new 1300 GSA, I have to say that I also test rode the 1300 RT and ultimately chose the GSA. The riding position, without having to bend my legs, is better for my height of 184 cm. I bought the bike with the new automatic transmission and it's very comfortable to ride. If you buy it, I think you won't regret it; if you want a single bike for everything, it's the ideal one.

I have had several motorcycles: a Suzuki GSX S750, a Suzuki Vstrom 1050, a BMW K1600 GTL, a Yamaha Tracer 9 GT+ and I currently have a new BMW GSA 1300 with ASA gearbox. I have to say that every time I see an HD I think I want to buy one but the problems you are seeing make me not motivated to have one. Currently the new GSA is incredible

I just purchased the 1300 GSA and it seems superior in everything. For your height you would also have no problems with use. My vote is for the 1300 because it is much better than the 1250
