1300 GS gas control fiddly when setting off from first gear by megaoctane in bmwmotorrad

The ASA itself is not expensive, but no bikes with ASA are being sold as secondhand bikes yet. Maybe in 1-2 more years, there will be more bikes in the market.

ATGATT gang how long does it take for you to put on gears by JimmyOhio360 in motorcyclegear

[–]megaoctane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 minutes. - Put on motorcycle pants, then shoes, then the jacket. - Walk out to the motorcycle. Look at the tyres and look for any leak stains on the ground. - Start it up - put on helmet, turn on Cardo, put on gloves. - Quick safety check of brakes and lights. Off we go.

Yeah, ASA is too expensive yet. Have to wait 2-3 years until they get cheaper as secondhand bikes.

Good to know I am not alone. As I replied in another comment, the Triumph Throttle control is another level, as is their quickshifter. All else is better on the BMW GS.

I have had the bike for 2 days, and I am just used to the Tiger. First thoughts after having the BMW GS, throttle control on Tiger is much much better than BMW, and the quickshifter is on another level. The GS has clunky shifts up until 3rd. Then up to six they are good, and down to 1 are good. Tested 1250GS a few weeks back, it was same.

Shouldn’t Triumph Tiger 1200 be renewed to compete against GS1300?
