So, an all new GS is coming in 2017. It seems that BMW has decided to give it some more power, if this very badly written snippet is anything to go by.

http://bmwrelease.com/2017-bmw-r1200gs-rumors/

The GSA will follow later, and there will be some new colours this year (maybe even a triple black :D), but in Q1 next year, the significantly revised GS will be released.

Could be interesting.:thumb
 
Strangely, the second picture down shows the exhaust on the wrong side so something wrong there unless..........

Picture is transposed, look at the writing on the can.
 
Ignore the photos, those are the current GS. For some reason those pictures have been reversed. The photo experts here will explain why that's happened.
 
The problem was the colour options?
I don't think so .....
Cracked windscreens
Faulty switchgear
Corrosion on the engine
 
Well this is good news. No need to change from BMW when the time comes next year then! (unless the gremlins piss me off enough to move brand...)

The revised GSA will be here in 2018, so you've got a bit of a wait!:D

I was about to order a GSA, but if the new GS has more power and will bridge the gap between the GS and XR, I could consolidate bikes.:augie

It's called a KTM.....
 
Sounds cool there even doing a 17" wheel option, 1300cc, better gearbox, 150 Bhp, looks very interesting.

Let's hope they do some decent colours, with a black engine/ frame, from the outset this time.

BMW are launching 12 new models next year, so could we see an addition to the HP range?:augie
 
Would be a nice article if it actually made any sense. Looks like it was translated from German into Mandarin and then to English.

They were obviously very excited, and got Joey Essex to write the article!:D

They should get him to apply the paint as well. He might do a better job!

The next GS will be painted with Hammerite at the factory!:P
