*it sounds like someone may have a favorite bike!* The best thing about this video is that you've been test riding so many other bikes, and while you obviously dig a lot of them, you still love this bike. That means it's special! Your culmination of the review videos should possibly be you giving this bike a ring.

I am late to the game and have only ridden since about 1984. But my current R1200GS remains my favorite. It's getting a bit long in the tooth and I am thinking of upgrading but I can't get excited about anything else. So I've kept my 1200 and will probably hold on to it till I move. My review - it doesn't do anything exceptionally well, but it does everything well enough. Case in point, I took a trip up recently that took me into the twisties and into the mountains. The bike was great on the highway cruising to get there, but not as comfy as some cruisers or touring bikes. In the twisties is was a lot of fun and pulled up those hills and curves with gusto. But not a good a sport bike or Sport Touring bike. I took a wrong turn and ended up on a dirt/gravel road. At first it wasn't too bad, I kept going thinking it'll end soon. It didn't, and it got steeper and the rocks got to be baseball size, with deep ruts. I was in trouble but the bike wasn't. I may have doubted my off-road skills but the BMW chugged up that hill no sweat. Not as good as a dual-sport, but good enough to get me to the top without dumping it or getting stuck. I am sold for life.

Fantastic Video and you perfectly describes the GS. I had several race bikes and been on the track, so I enjoy the adrenaline rush of fast bikes. I decided to give the GS a try and purchased a used 2015 r 1200 GS just like the one MotoJitsu purchased. My wife and I did a weekend ride, and we were on and off the bike for 9 hours. I was blown away how much fun we had. I purchased the bike used because I was not sure I was going to like it. I sold the 2015 GS after 3 months and purchased a new 2022 R1250GS 40th Anniversary. AMAZING BIKE!!!!!

I did a test ride with one recently, and I can agree, it is in fact a very enjoyable motorcycle. But since I never ever ride off-road I was more then happy to get back on my R1200RT because I personally prefer the better wind protection and comfortable quiet bubble it offers.

I have a '22 R1250GSA and I am ruined for other bikes. I test rode a Tiger 1200 & a Scrambler 1200xe at a recent demo day. They are nice bikes, really loved being a bit of a hooligan on the Scrambler in fact. But my GS is still my favorite place to be when I'm on the road. It just does anything ridiculously well. My first bike was a Honda CB350 40 years ago, nothing I've owned or ridden since is as good as a GS. Get training, the bike is so much more capable than the average rider it's silly. I have *never* regretted the money spent on improving my skills.

I must concur with the statement, I own the R1250GS exclusive and it is amazing. I have been looking at smaller bikes because it’s a heavy bike and I’m not getting any younger. I must say all the smaller Adventure bikes I have tried are so top heavy that I almost dropped 2 of them. That’s one thing you didn’t mention is the low down centre of gravity and superb balance of the GS. It makes it easier to handle at low speeds than smaller other bikes I have owned. I.E Ducati Multistrada 950S and the Kawasaki Versys. I also found out that no other smaller bike has all the features of the GS. Best bike I have owned by a mile

I don’t doubt how great those bikes are. Unfortunately, I’m 5’1” so I would need to do a major butt scoot over in order to get even one foot down. They are tall machines. Therefore, I plan to get an F750GS fully loaded next spring with the extra low seat for my extra short inseam. I sure wish they had shaft drive like the 1250s do.

I’ve owned a lot of different bikes over the years, from standards to sport bikes to cruisers and currently have 5 bikes in the garage. Along the way I’ve had 3 GSs (two boxers & one of the early 650 thumpers). My current 2012 GSA I’ve had since new & while it’s not the fastest bike in the stable nor the most classically beautiful, when I’m unsure of what kind of ride I want, it’s what I pick. It’s the bike I discover new roads on (both paved and dirt), since I never have to worry I’ll end up somewhere the bike shouldn’t be. It can tour, it’s fun in the twisties & it doesn’t mind being covered in mud. I will always have a GS in the garage, it is the do anything, go anywhere bike. If I had to pare down my fleet to a single bike… it’d be the GSA. It is the ultimate “only” bike.

(Even the GoldWing is too small for me! :-) ). We'll see what BMW comes out with next year (1300?), but as you say, this lacks nothing - it's basically perfect.

I have owned a BMW F750 GS for the last 4+ years and love it. I would love to trade up to the 1250 but not sure how well it would filter through the insane traffic here in Melbourne Au. The 750 is so much more nimble and slimmer than the 1250, I may have to test one out in traffic first. The shaft drive is a big + for me, chains are a pain in the proverbial… Great review though Greg.

Thanks for your great videos 😃👍. I see you recently did a test of the R1250R, 2023 model I think, and you really liked that. I'm looking at getting a low chassis GS as I'm 5' 7" tall or maybe an R1250R to include long distance work, but can't make up my mind. Road riding is my prime interest, although who knows, if I got a GS? I want to test ride them back to back when the dealer has both in stock, but I'm wondering what your thoughts are regarding each of those models and any pros and cons or noticeable differences with regard to the other, that you might draw my attention to. They both seem amazing and I've had a 2007 GS and a BMW Rockster back in the day, so I've had a bit of a taste, even though both have moved on a lot in that time! I'm wondering what you think. Any thoughts would be most welcome. 😃👍🤗

I enjoyed the video very much. It obvious you love your bike. Which is very important. I love all motorcycles and I am currently looking for a classic to add to the garage. I rode in high school, dirt bikes , then street bikes , then marriage and kids. About 4 years ago I wanted get back into motorcycles. I bought an adventure bike and couldn’t believe the difference. I had that bike for two years. The bike will remain unnamed because I never crack on another man’s ride. Just me. There were several things I couldn’t live with so I started looking for another bike. Dealerships are a major concern for me. How far are they away? Do you get along with the folks there? Is the service department good? Luckily a BMW dealership is about 15 minutes away. I traded for a ‘22 GS. The dealership is awesome. The drawbacks to the GS are small. They are expensive, no doubt. And that’s about it. Everything else is perfect , for me. It always puts a smile on my face. Zero engine heat. And all the things you mentioned. They also hold their value incredibly well. Best!

I have a 2022 triple black R1250GSA. Great bike. Amazingly balanced too. It hides its weight well. Had it in deep loose sand recently. Stayed vertical somehow. The BMW nav is trash. Buy a dock and use your cell phone.

Agree. The smartphone mount is pretty good and via the app you still get all the functionality (and wireless charging).

KTM is a weapon but not as refined as the BMW. Multi is beautiful but a bit less utilitarian than the GS(A). All awesome options, plus I’d Chuck the Tiger in the mix. First world problems 🙂

The only thing better than a GS is a GS Adventure. There are a few differences other than the bigger gas tank. Bought my '21 GSA and I've never been happier with a motorcycle. The comfort level is outstanding. I'm 6'3" and it's the first bike that just fits with no adjustments or modifications needed. Add in all the other goodness and it is as perfect a bike as you can get.

Curious if you feel like the lack of front-end loading while braking reduces your trail-braking feel and/or effectiveness?

Rebound damping must be improved, along with the quickshifter. More damper settings is also needed, not just Road and Dynamic. Earlier models had 3 different settings, i found that to be better. My Multi V4 has 5 different settings, with the front and rear adjustable separately. Also, in addition to the min / max / auto setting, preload can be set to 24 different settings. Bmw must step it up for the next GS. And yes, i've had 5 of them, so i know where i'm coming from. 🙂

It is a thick, unwieldy motorbike. Try picking it up OFFROAD 5-10 times a day. And it's packed with electronics. The next generation will be even more so. But ok, if you like it ;)
