BMW R1300 GS Adventure | MY FIRST RIDE

簡単な英語も学べるチャンネル | In this video I go and pick up my brand new motorbike from BMW Motorrad Haneda and take it for its first run through the city to get comfortable with the motorbike, come along and have a listen to what my initial thoughts are on this bike.

[@WheelieGoodTV]

Great vid and I learned different things which most other vids haven’t mentioned. Well done and subbed!

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Awesome, thank you so much its so nice to wake up in the morning and read this delightful comment I vm appreciate it 🙏👍

[@rjmockett]

Just picked mine up today . Same colour as yours but with ASA . Love it . Minus 3 degrees C but still loved the ride home 👍

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

congratulations @rjmockett as many safe rides ahead !!

This 1300GSA looks very impressive and it makes the observers visually feel its bigness as well as its weight. But it’s an unexpected and nice fact, as you say, that it is actually lighter, less tall, and easier to walk around and manipulate with than the 1250. I think it is a definite evolution that its riders can appreciate. This will surely widen your motorcycling world and increase its pleasure. Congratulations, Arch, on the nice change you got!! PS - I think the side stand is meant for the right hand side traffic countries, where the road is higher toward the left.

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Thank you for the kind words, I am very happy with it and I'm excited to share my experiences with it Andy san 🙏

[@eddysadventures1964]

Absolutely love it! I liked that you recorded at the dealership. Stalling the bike was fun (and relatable 😂). The automated ride hide adjustment on a big bike sounds amazing, that along with all the other tech. Looking forward to future adventures!

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Thanks so much Eddy mate 🙏it was a lot of fun happy that Kaz and Scott came out as well and I'm stoked to be riding it now that I have it 👍

Hi Arch, congratulations on the new awesome bike, looking really cool! One thing - in your video at 18:59 you're going through the Shimbashi underpass, which is also known as "Shimbashi trap" - motorcycles prohibited. There will often be a police bike ambushing around the exit from the tunnel on Showa-dori. Speaking from experience. If you look through your footage that didn't make it into this video, right before the tunnel entrance, you may be able to see the sign. It would appear right after you pass the railway bridge above, really hard to notice, almost no time to react.

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

OMG i had no idea and yes didnt notice it thanks so much man 🙏🙏

[@RogersMotorcycleAdventures]

I know exactly how you feel about this purchase - I just took delivery of my R1300GS (Option 719 version) two weeks ago, and every day I want to ride it even more. Congrats!

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

thanks Roger yes agreed I have absolutetly no regrets.

[@Biggiesbikes]

Congratulations buddy, looking forward to seeing the adventures you go on with the new bike

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Thank you Biggie mate, I'm looking forward to going on long tours with this one mate 👍🤘

[@NaveenKumarBhat]

Congratulations on your new steed Arch - wishing you lots of safe and memorable motoring miles ! As a fellow R1250 GSA (low suspension) rider, I avidly watch your Vlogs in my favourite country and I was a bit sad to see your 1250 GSA go, truth be told. But glad you are happy with your new ride and looking forward to watching more journeys from you. Cheers ! Naveen.

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Thank you so much Naveen, I'm really enjoying the new bike and will be sure to share more adventures with you soon and in the hope i csn convince others to maybe consider a new bike as I have no regrets 🤣🙏

I stopped by Haneda Motorrad on Saturday with my son to check out the new GSA. Unfortunately I was just there looking and not shopping. They are nice looking bikes.

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

It is a great place to check them out for sure, they have so many lovely bikes there and also in their second building as well just down the road 👍

[@lifewithpye2981]

Great video mate. I am in the Yokohama area and considering one of these for myself. Currently on the 2015 F800R.

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Thanks so much and I would definitely recommend it the 1300GSA it's a huge leap in technology and ride quality, If you need an intro to Haneda then I'm happy to help out even if for a test ride on the new GSA mate

[@lifewithpye2981]

[@SimonT65]

I know this video is a couple of months old now so you may have found it but there's a USB plug in the little glove box above the fuel cap by all accounts

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Yep I did find it! And it’s a game changer for charging my phone on the go as well when needed most important I appreciate you commenting Simon and adding to the community 👍🙏

[@AlfonsHornbostel]

Great Video, thank you so much! My 1300 GSA will arrive in march. Might I ask you which cell phone holder you are using? Also, the navigation hardware seems interesting!

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

sure Alfons, I'm using the QUAD Lock phone holder and it is mounted to my handle bars using the RAM mount product. The Navigation system is CHIGEE BMW AIO-5 Play

[@AlfonsHornbostel]

[@BugManRides]

How long have you been in Japan? Sounds like you are fluent in the language. I just bought a 24 R1250GSA, (big savings on a 24 leftover) had a 18 R1200GS before and I really like the big fuel tank of the GSA. Saw the new R1300GSA at the dealer and in person it looks much better than in photos. I hope to take the new 1300 for a test ride when the 1250 goes in for the 600 mile service on the 30th.

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

awesome thats a lovely bike as well, been here for just over 20 years however have never really studied the language just by speaking to people it helps the most i feel. Have a fun and safe ride on the GSA your going to love it !!

[@Zeqoe]

Amazing!! Did you buy it? Awesome!

[@archjapanmotovlogs]

Yes I did and very happy with it 👍✌️
