BMW 1300GS Adventure vs. BMW 1250 GSA Stick or Twist? What would you do?

[@CXhaust]

I tested one a couple of weeks back. Yes the 13 is (maybe) a bit quicker when extended but that isn`t my riding style nor is it the reason folk generally buy GS`s. The 13 engine is rough, coarse and does not feel refined at all - the engine sound is dreadful with a cacophony of rattles knocks and whines, the exhaust note muted. It sounds like a neglected push-along lawnmower. I`ve been on two 13`s and both had poor gearbox feel. Not an inspiring experience at all. The suspension is too firm - it`s an adventure bike not a sports bike. Overall it felt rather clincal and inert lacking in any character. I am really surprised at all the reviews saying how much better it is. I was interested in what i thought of my 1250 when i got back on it and can honestly say i much prefered it - smoother, quieter, better throttle feel and with a lovely pop and burble on the overrun which the 13 does not have. Overall the 1250 just feels `friendlier` and is much more of a comfortable, rounded pleasant ride that just feels `right` When you consider the cost to change it`s a no from me, i`m keeping my 1250. And then there`s the 13`s looks.......

Enjoyed this vid a lot. It was like listening to myself talk as we share the same thoughts and sentiment. You also fully loaded the 1300GSA just like I have. I twisted. I do only have the 1200GS though so it's a very big upgrade for me.

I have the same bike and the ASA + Radar + Electric Shield is the things I want! Is not only expensive but the fact that I cannot transfer the panniers and top box to the new bike is another expense all together! Great video!

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

@@marcelisujecki4707 Yep, great tech and panniers are so much better quality wise but all comes at a big cost. I think, like car retailing nowadays they’re taking advantage of the way people are largely financing cars and bikes now which is PCP. Think I’ll be picking one up second hand post pcp deal. Thanks for the feedback and glad you enjoyed the video.

First time I’ve seen you and really enjoyed the vid! I ride a 2021 R1250R and am contemplating going back to a GS so I found your comments very informative. I agree with you on the pricing, 15k+ to upgrade from an already excellent bike that you love doesn’t really make sense! Let someone else take that big depreciation hit and pick it up used in a couple of years is my plan!

Great review, I’m in exactly the same position as you re limited mileage p/a. Totally concur with you on the cost to change stops me changing right now. Another year with my beloved GS 1250 TE. Alps beckoning in 2025.

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

Thanks for the feedback and the more of thought about it makes more sense especially after going to the Motorcycle Live show seeing all the lower capacity bikes offering great value as a potential bacon sandwich second bike. If you’re off to the Alps you’re going to love it - check out my video on the channel - Alps trip with BMW 👍

[@2wheelsrbest327]

Interesting video. It literally took me years after several test rides to click with a Boxer engine given I was riding four cylinder bikes for years. BMWs seemed like tractors. And then unbelievably wanting to change my bike seeing a 1200GS in a local dealers without a test ride I brought it. As I rode away from the dealer I just clicked with it and loved it. Over recent years I have traded GS in for various other Adventure bikes CrossTourer. Tiger1050 and more recently Pan America nothing wrong with any of them but they just weren't a GS and lacked its character. I would love to have a 1250 or 1300GSA but age and finances tells me its not going to happen so I am happy on my 1200. Like you I don't do many miles each year other than a week in France each year. As for the look of the 1300GSA I quite like it and I think its the same has the Pan America in that it looks better in the flesh than in any photo's I have seen of it. You now have a new Sub.

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

@@2wheelsrbest327 Great feedback thankyou and very similar. I’ve had triumph tigers, bmw 1600 gt and nothing as you say compares to the boxer 👍. Thanks for your sub really appreciated

[@Bikerbug2020]

Back to Back view from the Cockpit comparison: the 1250GSA looks more substantial and that is one of the reasons why I opted for it, plus the deals that you can get on the 2024 is huge.

[@BarryAlderslade]

Excellent sum up - I am in exactly the same position as you. On my 4th GSA, latest is 23 plate triple black. 5 -7k to trade up maybe but not that amount you were quoted. I did try a Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally earlier in the year. Gorgeous looking bike with big service intervals - but did not give me that wow factor to warrant paying 27k. Plus it did sound like a sewing machine - not what I expected. All first world problems though. Nice one

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

Barry thanks for your feedback and did think the deal would have been better probably would be if I went elsewhere. The salesman was a good guy but the guy behind the salesman I think was banking on significant demand even saying he’ll get buyers ringing from Motorcycle Live when they see the bike - so my guess is he thought I’d already committed come what may what the cost was - which in fairness was me historically 😂. He clearly read me wrong or they are ringing him up right now 😊. Interested in your feedback on the Ducati - as you say I love the look of the bike and must test ride one - I have the view I’m going to totally agree with you. Plus not a fan of chain drive after having shaft drive. Ride safe 👍

[@TheWrittleRider]

Hey Buddy, I’m only 5.5 mins into the video and am amazed at all the extras you have out on this bike! It’s a lovely bike, personally I think the 1300 is great but I would keep the 1250 for a few seasons more until you have had the value out of the money already spent. If you change now you will lose so much money. Wait for the depreciation so slow down and for you to have had more time with your beautiful 1250. All the best

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

Thanks for the feedback - wise advice 👍

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

Totally agree 👍

[@gerryryan2302]

the 1250 GS/GSA is a superb bike , the new 1300 is noisier and whiney and less comfy , but it is a swap i do not regret , the only regret i do have about the bike is having it without the ASA , that gearbox is super easy and smooth . but i also did the maths to an ASA and could not justify the swap

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

ASA does seem to be the way forward. Listening back to my video the engine is more noisy than I first thought but not annoying in my view. Enjoy 👍

[@kensmith4395]

I know you have made the right choice

[@scotthuxtable5121]

Stick for the time being. I’ll likely change my 23 GSA in a couple years time. Maybe for the 1300GSA or possibly the new 1390 SAS from KTM. I think your feeling about ‘significant’ power and acceleration improvements between the 1250 and 1300 boxer are largely illusory. There are various side by side tests of the 1250 and 1300 GS online - acceleration wise, there’s nothing in it. In fact, the 1250 is slightly quicker 0-100kph and also in top gear roll on. The 1300GSA is a very nice machine for sure, but let’s not get too carried away with performance differences (4% more torque and 8% more power).

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

I’ve been looking at the KTM and sounds like marmite again - u like them but from looking around given reliability rumours - who knows the real truth ? But dealer support can be varied again don’t really know. Great value bike though 👍. Performance wise I hear what you say re the numbers but perception is the pick up is a lot quicker

[@PeterFearon-g8q]

You came to the same conclusion as me. Have you noticed how small the price to change has become between a 23/24 1250 gs verses a 23/24 1300 gs. Hold tight for 12/18 months. Your bike is very well kitted out and low mileage , you’ll have no problem shifting it privately when the figure to change becomes more affordable . Love my 2024 GSA, Steve at a bike think set my indicators , tail light & brake lights to pre 22 model spec. Takes 5 mins on the Hex GS911 plug in. A look so stuck me the sports dash on . 👏👏👏

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

@@PeterFearon-g8q Great minds 👍. I think you’re right about the pricing become more equal. I did think about the Hex GS911 but at the time it only did the front lights - I should have waited👍. Thanks for the feedback.

⁠@@chrishart8548 no the lights remain on but say you indicate to go left the left hand red light goes out and just the indicator is on.

A full spec ‘25 (without ASA) to replace what I have including luggage and nav comes in at around US $35K out the door. Insane. My ‘22 is just fine, thank you.

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

Great feedback thank you 👍

[@highdefp-rm7zg]

I’m in the same boat as you with an identical 1250 GSA. I will not be changing to the 1300 because: 1. The 1300 is noisier with transmission whine and engine clatter - I’m almost prepared to bet that the next incarnation will be quieter (as they’ve done this before) your video picks up the noise well. 2. The upgrade cost is more than twice what I have paid in the past from a 2 year old to a new. 3. The looks haven’t grown on me enough.

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

Good points and yep double the expected cost to change normally - however I did fully spec the bike but luggage is now £2k ish 😢

[@dockerandy]

Had a 19 plate 1250gsa from new, standard height, 4 yrs later i could have had one of the first 1300's, alas a brand new 1250gsa triple black was right behind the first 1300 in the showroom, and that sold the 1250 again to me, but like you a low height version, i just can't love the new 1300 headlight, the 1250 gsa still knocks out the park for me, the 1300 may have a better/faster but noiser engine, but if i wanted a sportsbike i'd buy one, i'm sticking with my 1250 gsa for 3 years, but it'll stay a lot longer if that headlight doesn't change, and may lead to me leaving the brand.... we'll see...

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

Sounds like you nailed it - great decision. I’m with you I think - maybe a brand change eventually which is disappointing. Thanks for the feedback 👍

Looks like the one you road had the standard seat but set on high. I get what you mean regarding the difference, it’s huge. I was quoted £7k for my 1250GS against a 1300GSA.

[@Fernando90054]

Thanks for the video. This new GSA is what the wonders of evolution do, bringing beautiful novelties in our direction. The engine of the new GS generation is fantastic and now IMO ahead again, of the direct competition, the bike is powerful and agile for the weight it carries. It’s proper fast with this new engine! But I have to say that your bike looks very sharp well equipped and still is like a child . So, to trade it now would be, I guess, a serious pain. 10.000 miles on the odometer is nothing on this type of machine. I know that all the new tech is tempting. The ASA is very good and on a bike like this makes every sense, with the luggage and passenger would be a great benefit to the relax of the ride, plus the adaptive cruise control with the blind spot monitoring device, are undoubtedly important upgrades to comfort and security, for longer rides or when going through the city traffic. These are precious electronics aids. The question is, looking at the speed how technology is evolving , manufacturers will keep on improving every year their machines and we can be sucked into that money drain if we don’t stabilize when odds still favor us 🤔 That’s just a thought . Thanks for confirming that the new GSA 1300 is worth it!

I wish the beak was a little pointy like the 1250, but overall I’m ok with the design. I might be inclined to trade my 1250 GSA for a 1300 GSA before Trump kills us with import tariffs. Btw, what’s your inseam? Mine is 29”, but hoping the ride height feature will help me with stopping. Will go for a demo ride in the next couple of weeks.

[@TheramblinmanTRM]

Enjoy the test ride. I’m a 30.5” inseam and on the regular 1300 GSA I was on the balls of my feet. There are three options of variable ride height. 1 Normak, 2 is Lower and the third takes it lower still which is called comfort. There are additional seats too so there’s a solution out there 👍. For me I like to be flat footed at a stop especially 2 up.

Seems like a nice bloke, seems like a sensible bloke but that last 5 minutes totally summarises the sadness of motorcyclist and their thinking these days. He's got a cracking bike and rather than think about where he'd go on it, be route planning, trip planning or actually going somewhere of interest and enjoying it, he's thinking through PCP deals, how to justify a pointless change of machine and all because BMW have released the next part of their 10 year rolling plan to change models. The answer is, when you've got between 80 and 100k on the clock and there's the potential you might need to spend a bit of money on it (and it will only be the potential), then consider a change. Enjoy and ride what you've got and ignore what the marketing boys tell you that you need.
