This is perfect timing for me I own a Garmin Zumo xt2 like yours and waiting delivery of BMW GS1300 Trophy

[@pistolpete6321]

Great video, looks good. I might have to do that on my XR.

[@jackchristodoulou197]

I also brought a lock for the Garmin so it can’t get pinched

How will you compare the bike against the Multi V4? Like you, i previously had many big GS's, then the Multi V4 and now waiting for the GSA. Had a short demoride on the GS with knobby tires. Except for the tires i enjoyed the bike, even though it felt a bit more cramped (knee angle) for my 194 cm, compared to both the Multi and the 1250. Also, my girlfriend did not like the passenger seat on the new bike, must be smaller than before...? Bmw representatives have said the Adventure will be more touring oriented, and that the difference between the two will be bigger than before. Can't wait. 😎

Comparisons are relatively easy having owned three Multi's and now five GS/GSA's. And I have friends with the V4 and GSA's, so might do further back-to-back group test comparisons. The 1300 is a better bike than the 1250 in terms of sporting dynamics, performance, and additional features (ACC, E/Windshield, AHC), but looks less rugged and is slightly worse for passengers (better suspension but thinner seat). It's much closer to being a Multi V4 now, but has more accessible torque, shaft-drive, better brakes and greater agility. The GSA is likely to be much heavier, with better wind and crash protection, have a taller front wheel, and greater range. It won't be as nice to push around or go fast on, but will be better with a passenger on a cold and wet January day when you have 400 miles still to go. Not unless the difference between the 1250 GS and 1250 GSA. It's what works for your user case that matters. I often ride an Adv-Tourer like a sports-bike, and I always ride solo, so I like the lighter and more dynamic feel and don't think I'll be buying the heavier GSA when released. But many will prefer that for their needs no doubt.
