Saw a picture of the new R1300GS today.

Don’t really speak German but I see it has new luggage with central locking and I think an electric screen

can anyone see any mention of Harley style lowering suspension ?

not keen on the headlight but the pics are kinda wonky so hard to tell really
 
ooo need to see it in the flesh , looks bloody awful , bit of a Multi /Crossrunner Er Kwak . Also a bit crampt ????
 
The front indicators on pic 3 remind me of Jeremy Beadle.

There`s something very odd about the proportions on all those pics.

Yes central locking
Yes harley style lowering susension
yes electric screen.

for the rest, see

Looks like the GS1300 is happening?

Hell I wish BMW would make a smaller, lighter R series GS, maybe 800cc liquid cooled with conventional forks and no electronic suspension, no throttle modes or TC, just defeat-able abs. In other words more like Tenere' 700 than an RT. You will just get old waiting for BMW to come to that...

I have an i4 M50. I assume that is a positive response?

I do wonder if the radar pod drives the front-end arrangement. It would have been better with the headlight above the radar thus contributing to the 'tall' aspect (heritage) of the GS since time began. It's lost its signature beak and high set light.....this will need getting familiar with....

The new GS looks like Liz Hurley compared to this monstrosity.

That’s like saying you’d have Anne widdicombe over Liz Hurley. The Harley is a complete failure because it is fugly. The new GS will look great in the right colour and spec. I’m buying one .

In your opinion.
Think the Pan Am has sold quite well, though obviously not in vainglorious Britain.

The Americans will buy anything with a Harley badge as they have done for years. Doesn’t mean to say it is any good.

The Pan American reminds me off this. Possibly good underneath but who cares??
