many thanks guys - new bmw lc

[solidstate100]

It looks even more plasticky than its predecessor. No thanks.

I hanker after an r80 gs basic now!

 

[Boxed-in]

Ugly? it doesn't look that different from the 1200

Only the press bikes will have anywhere near 125 PS, anyway, it didn't really need anymore power, just run properly and be reliable

If you ever bought a GS or GSA for it's good looks, you bought the wrong bike, if you bought a bike to stand out then.............

Will the new one stand out from all the new models of Triumph / Yamaha / etc?

Time will tell....

 

[Nutty]

Will be interesting to see the colour options. I hope they do a version with a black frame/ engine Or even a Triple Black

 

[Deleted account 211025001]

Looking good so far.

Maybe not the hoooge step forward that the R1200 was over the 1150 but looks to have moved on enough for me to at least want a test ride at some stage.

For some reason I really, really like the wheels?

You're all talking about looks and the small increase in power, but that's only half the story, what about the suspension system.......I'm hoping that will be some kind of next generation........ ?? and will carry over to the 2014 RT (with 130 bhp I hope)

 

[phillh]

It says 1170cc, I thought it was going to be a 1250?

 

[KAYCEE]

It says 1170cc, I thought it was going to be a 1250?

Probably saving the 1250cc for the 2014 upgrade....

You didn't fall for that line, did you

 

[DrFarkoff]

Someones gotta say it

I WONDER HOW LONG BEFORE THE FIRST OF THE CATASTROPHES

Surely tho we are well by fuel pump controllers and EWS antennas

 

[Engineer]

looks great!

I agree, looks very good in racing red - well done BMW, just hope that the water cooling system doesn't generate too much heat in the summer and cook the rider.

125ps is good too, just enough extra poke without turning it into a sports bike for old farts.

 

[JohnnyBoxer]

Nope ......................I've slept on it and the new liquid cooled GS still looks

This....................................or this

 

[Awfers]

I'll reserve judgement 'til I see it in the flesh..

Anyone going to Milan in November?

 

[degsey]

It's being revealed at Intermot pretty much as we speak...

They've ripped the Marchesini design from the MV Agusta!

 

[Wrinkly]

Personally I'm not to bothered what it looks like as the only time I'm looking at it is as I walk up to it.

If the quality of finish is as good as my current dohc 1200 and it's 10% better to ride then I'll be having one.
