I have a ‘13 RT 44k miles and from neutral to 1st you can not hear or feel the engagement. You simply see the ‘1’ on the display and I’ve ridden up too 6 hrs without major discomfort. Fantastic.

Hi Grumpy, good to see you again. Keep making videos of police car modifications, they're fun to watch. I'm glad there will be videos with the motorcycle. Do you still have the R1250RS? Best regards from Poland 😀👍

MERRY CHRISTMAS GRUMPY! I looks like 7 years since I last watched this. How was your R12R experience ? In fall of 2014, I bought a nice 2014 R1200R. Of the 28 bikes I have owned, it sits at the top of the list for sure.

Your lens has a smudge on it that is annoying to watch through. It looks out of focus. The audio is crackling.

I own the dark (shorter) now discontinued Screen. The mounts are all the same.. for all three sizes. Top Quality

Oh baby. What? 😂

7 men one barbie...

Hello, I'm glad that everything is OK with you. I see that you have new equipment in your bike. Maybe make a video about it. Greetings from Poland 😀👍

Welcome back!! Gongrats from Portugal! ✌🏻

Merci

Maaan, are there any nice roads around there? Only straight roads? Must be so boring... ☹️

How you doing GM ? Still riding the RS? I was recently buying and it came down to one but decided on the S1000XR - how you been?

No such thing as a 2017 model 13 to 16 only

CON-KOR.

All i can hear is clunk clunk on down shifts. Sounds like my 08 but newer.

Ahh cool, we live like 15 minutes away from each others! World is a small place, nice to see someone from my region doing some great stuff, we'll see us on the road for sure! Nice bike and great channel!👌✌(P.s. I ride in your area almost every time I am alone and get the urge for a little ride!😜)I just hope you are doing alright, since you haven't been doing anything here for over a year...

Ton français est très bon mon cher, i just found your channel this morning, and already watched many of your videos. Let me say, you do some good stuff! We are neighbours, I am in Dorion, we have about the same motorcycling history, i am 50 so you are 2 years older than me...Anyways, take care and keep up the beautiful work, I will look up to it for sure!

One suggestion ok may be 2. Complete your comments and Prepare for the topic you discuss.

Had an 05 RTSE, 07 RT, 98 1100s and currently a 2013 R1200R Classic (I've had and tracked 5 RR's, one a 2015 I took the DDC off and installed Ohlins) I much prefer the telelever front ends, they just plain suit the way I ride as well as the crap roads in Australia, I had no problem scraping the rocker covers on any of the boxers... Oh and a 1974 R90s... Rode Harleys for years, even had two M8 engined ones a few years ago and after riding BMW's for around 12 years I don't care how cool a Harley looks any more, these specially my 2005 R1200RTSE was the best, it looked like it weighed 400kg and blew everyone away.

Nice car. New subscriber from South Africa. What does it mean to “lease” a car? Is it like a long-term rental?

What led turn signal bulbs did you use?

im just curious as to what your next bike(s) was/were.

Very interesting 👍

had 12 Harleys now 2016 f6b friggin love it. first leg 8 hrs and I didn't want to stop.

Gs or rt or africa twin or ktm 1290?

bmw went to common fork in 2015.....does that mean the proprietary fork they were using before is not that good?

Hi, great review. Which handbars you installed and how they worked? Cheers, Slawek

Hi Grumpy, Is it spring in Canada already? Have you gone on a motorcycle ride yet? Greetings from Poland

Its missing a vídeo from This year!! Congrats from Portugal!

Where might I find somewhere to rent one?

Je vois que tu parles le français, alors je te dis Bravo(!) pour cet essais qui est excellent! C'est une bonne analyse que tu as fait. Ça me donne encore plus le goût de faire l'achat d'un F6B!

2014 was de eerste Rt1200lc

Well I see this was some time ago, but may be of use for others, motoscan app and an OBD2 scanner plus a cable adapter, both from Aliexpress for less than $15 for both, plus $30 for the app, will do everything you'll need.

This or speed twin 1200? I can't decide

GM, where are you? Are you not releasing anymore vids?

The concours is an attack bike, ready to go any second. That's why I love my 2012 kawasaki concours abs 1400 bad review for such a bike. It's painful

Why a GSA or RT for next bike?! Can you compare this with GSA/RT ? Regards, M.

Congratulations. My BMW cases cost $1200 from the dealer in Ottawa. Good choice on the Dynamic Motorrad bulbs. They are excellent. Have had them on 2 bikes.

Test rides are so weird in the USA, I would hate this follow the leader procession thing they insist on doing, where I live they chuck you the keys and say just bring it back by closing time

Just watched your 20km and 30km videos of this bike. Looking at buying the exact same bike, same year, same color. Local seller is asking $10,500 USD including top and side cases, Premium pkg w/Dynamic ESA, and bark busters. It has 14,600 km on it. Any thoughts on what's a fair price to pay? Am I wise to buy one? Or look for something else? Will use it for leisure riding, running errands, probably won't put a ton of miles on it. Used to have an R1100S and that was too sporty for casual riding.

The cost of the plate here in quebec is too expensive for 6 months of riding.Beside im a pround owner of a Kawasaki Concours and with all the change ive made on it (raise handlebars,RUSSEL tournig seat, ATLAS cruise control,Vance&Hines slip) on, its a joy to ride on highways or twistie road fast comfy reliable no chain maintenance and it does cost an arm tom plate it what more do you want. GREAT video man keep on riding and be safe.

Extra ✌️👍🏍️

the 1400 is the best go back to bike ever. the cb1000r is an agery bike yhat want to sell retribution.

Can you lane split on this motorcycle?

Thank You! I have a 2015 R1200R and that made up my mind on which slip-on to get.... Appreciate it

Hey GM, hope you're doing better. Thanks for sharing your videos

Hey GM, welcome back. Sorry to hear of your health woes, though it sounds like you're well on the mend. Good for you to get out on the bike, no doubt. The weather's definitely picking up here now. Looking forward to getting out for a leisure ride later this week.

Just fitted the exhaust side pannier mount. My r1250 has a nut welded to the exhaust to you dont use the included nut and washer. However the manual says the mount should be on the inside of the exhaust mount. Mine only fits on the outside of the exhaust mount (just like your video). Rubbish instructions.

Bmw always rips you off with servicing and optionals

The main difference with pther naked bikes is the weight..
