At first when I saw the images of the new BMW R1300GS I thought hmmmmm. But the looks are growing on me and to be honest my 2021 R1250GS looks a bit dated beside the new bike. But looks are not everything of course so a test ride was needed to find out what it would be like, any good? Well I was completely taken aback, it is so much better than the 1250; far more torque making overtaking easy in 6th gear, a quickshifter that is smooth (yes really!) and the bike feels lighter and more planted at the front so more fun.... BMW has really come good with this beastie. Get yourself a test ride, you will be impressed.

A big thank you to Ian at Sycamore Motorrad for their loan of the R1300GS whilst my R1250GS was in for some TLC, if you live in East Anglia or the East Midlands give Ian there a call to arrange a ride. Link here:
