New 2017 Triple Black GSA vid

I like that.

Am almost now tempted to trade in my classic 2014 matte blue version. :thumb2
 
Looks like a half arsed job to me. It's a "Triple Black" so understand the different shades of black bit.
However can someone explain why it's also still covered with silver/grey bits: Rocker Covers, Crash bars,
Rear Footrest hangers, Swinging Arm Bolt cups, Rear Rack, Rear subframe plastic under seat cover.

Popped into this shop whilst on holiday in Southern Germany a few weeks ago, they do "Editions" of their own design and their Triple Black GSA (LC) was beautiful but pricey...

Some beauties here for sure, love their twin cam GS PD EDITION... also had around 200 second-hand bikes for sale too

Really getting pissed off with having to watch the full YouTube ad! I have the triple black gs, so interested in seeing the GSA triple black in the flesh.

Exactly. And the front suspension arm. It looks a mess visually - especially the rear footrest hangers. Did they run out of black paint?
 
I quite like "all-black" bikes and the GS and GSA look fine in gloss black (or matt black ?) but the question we might all have is ...... "is an all-black motorbike safe ?" with so many motorists out there not always looking or even paying attention. I always recall a Road Safety talk yonks ago where the lecturing officer said that white bikes or yellow bikes with "good facing colour profiles" were more likely to be seen by daft or sleepy car drivers, but that's just a recall from the session.

Police Officers on this forum might have an opinion ?


Footnote: I've had black bikes in the past and don't recall particularly having a problem.

Save yourself some money, buy a cheaper version, get 3 rattle cans of black and apply all over ! Job done. Hammerite needs no primer so recommended.
 
Why so much grey on the front forks? My TC TB is all black there! Isn't that what black means; black and not grey???? :nenau:nenau
 
Was that short film taken on a potato video cam? :blast

The bike? I'm slightly underwhelmed tbh
I won't be getting one.
 
The F800 Trophy looks nice. Wonder if they will ever update the awful engine to go with the good looking machine. Could do with a 270 degree crank, then it would sell!!
 
Must be a new model due as Triple Black seems to come out before next update. So triple black means you will own an old bike soon.
 
It's all hush hush at the moment no news on a GS update!
