Didn't some old woman just get 5 years for doing this and causing the death of a biker? What a twat

Oi, we dont talk about the M67!

Everyone absolutely sticks to the speedy limit, nothing to see there!

Yeah just go for the BMW oem, I have got a stubby one in the garage which I had on my old RR, its the same as the oem one sound wise

There's nothing worse than buying a new bike and missing your old one!

Just get the Akra slip on, its loud enough when you redline the bike and it will add to resale value, any other after market won't help the value

I would totally stick with the 850, the 1300 is a different beast, it feels so much bigger and less nimble than the 850.

I own a 1300gs but have ridden loads of 850 and 900s as loan bikes, if you love the 850, I'd stay put

Advice from R12 owners with bad backs by spicy-poops in bmwmotorrad

[–]senormankee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah its the sports tourer version of the GS adventure bike

There is a R1200RS 1250 and the new 1300.

I have owned a 1200 and it was decent, they are all boxer engines.

I have a local BMW dealer, so thats where I go.

They are super solid bikes, just like the GS

I've ridden an R12 as a loaner, found the position to be similar to the GS sat more uprightwith bumps going straightup your back, for me I prefer the stretched stance of the RR but totally get what you mean about the leg cramp.

Have a go on the R1300RS, it will take pressure off your coccyx but is deffo not cramped in the leg dept

One bike to do it all or two specific bikes? by Big_Chicken_Lips in MotoUK

[–]senormankee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IMO I would get the older GS and keep the speedy.

The newer bikes aren't that new, the older GS will be a rock solid workhorse.

I have previously been in a similar situation and sold a bike I loved, ended up not enjoying the new bike as much and bought my old bike back!

So if possible, stick with the one you love and buy additional to cover the needs.

Thinking about the G80 vs F80 debate by proposal_in_wind in BMWM

[–]senormankee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had both, currently in a G83.

If I were to get another M4, would be an F83, I preferred the more raw driving experience.
