back from Turkey trot, and my bloody 1200

............................. didn't miss a beat all week, and it did the same for me last year on the Morocco dash

You know we're only interested in the breakdowns

Oh dear me...

That is so disapointing to hear... Come on, something must have gone wrong...

Just the other day... MY bloody panniers acted up again... I must write to BMW and complain...

I mean really... it almost took me 30 seconds to clip them on to my bike... This is disgusting... it usually takes me 25 seconds

Should I sell and buy a KTM

Best get the dinosuar owners to write to BM and complain

When I saw your title my heart sank and I thought what now, more people should post on the positive aspects then the site would have a more balanced view. I know the GS isn't perfect, but let's be honest it is a great bike to ride.

Great post, thanks.

Snap...

On the same Trot as Darkhorse and my 1200 GSA didn't miss a beat, nor use any oil.

That's 22,000 miles (all spent touring, including Morocco Dash and Turkey Trot) in a little under two years, without any significant problems at all. Similar, to the 23,000 in 18 months on my previous bike, a vanilla 1200GS.
