great engine, great frame, great look ... no gigantic TFT ( or TFT at all ) , no wind shield ... a true motorcycle ...

Nice Video, thank you. Although, I not sure the different modes effect the suspension characteristics. This bike hasn’t got semi-active suspension.

Thanks - you're spot on, my mistake thinking that's why there is a delay changing modes, finally realised it only changes modes when you fully close the throttle 👍

No bad but too bloody expensive for a back road toy to take out for an hour after work. Like you I've got a GS as my go to bike and a guzzi v7 to satisfy back road naked bike needs but honestly hardly use it. More often than not, even for a quick ride before tea it's the gs I pull out.

I have a 1250rs and i do over 7k a year on it, absolutely love it. In march this year on a whim i bought a 2016 nine t as a weekend toy, really wasn’t sure at first but now i absolutely love it, it’s an absolute riot.

@julianstiff4685 I have absolutely no doubt but sadly my finances (read wife) won't allow me to have 2 high value bikes. Nice to know someone else that makes decent use of a gs though.

That’s a great engine I’ve got it on one of my early GS’s. I have several BMW’s and you can on all of them put them into dynamic then change the suspension into road, likewise in road or rain you can change to dynamic. That is of course if this bike has auto suspension not sure not seen that on any I’ve looked at.
@cyclingbikerwholovestotinkerАй бұрын
couldn't agree more, it was fab! I'm not sure what suspension adjustments you can do on that model on the fly, the TFT was quite small and basic, and as standard it comes with clocks so perhaps not....?

Can anyone advise where the dedicated motorcycle parking is in St Andrews?

tbh I'm not sure unless someone else knows, I shall have a look for you next time I'm up.

Had lots of GS’s and love them. What I’ve found is with a pillion rides better in rain mode because it just softens and smooths the throttle out, usually stick it in dynamic suspension as you say can be a bit soft. Lots of people complain about clunky quick shifter but once you get used to where and when to change they are pretty smooth, they do tend to improve with the miles as well.

Thanks for the feedback and taking to to watch 👍 I'm planning to give a more in depth review with my wife on the back when time allows - climbing on and off for a passenger etc Ps my next one won't be as long 🙈

Hi - yes there's is a din charging point on the right hand side below the TFT screen. During run in etc I'm averaging 49.5mpg - the tanks 19ltrs so that should equate to around 200miles per tank - hope that helps 👍
@arnoldtm312 ай бұрын
Hi, what's the tank range roughly? Does it have a 12v din socket? Thanks

Hi, I did the first carbon vinyl ones myself, and they didn't turn out that good so I took them up to a local professional in Glenrothes, Fife and they did a first class job. If you are on FB, search the GS1300 group page, I've posted my efforts and the new replacement ones as well 👍
