RE: Shield your eyes. The new R1300GSA has been revealed. - 3

Makes the standard 1300GS look like alright from the front.

Cannot imagine how much the R and RS will be improved with the new engine and latest 'look' - be prepared for a surprise!

Anyone see anything on a '25 RS model? I find it interesting that BMW is already offering incentives on current bikes. $1,000 cash for RR's, $1,250 for RS's, and more. That C-04 scooter model must be really suffering...BMW's offering $3,000 cash on that one. If I recall, BMW usually doesn't offer incentives until late in the riding season, into fall.

My local dealer's inventory is not moving. Are consumers getting budget-conscious?

I noticed it did not lose weight like the GS did.
The 1300GS is around 25 pounds less than a 1250GS.
The 1300GSA weighs 2 pounds more than the 1250GSA.
The 1300GSA and 1250GSA have the same fuel tank size.

Motorcycle.com has recently published this review of the 2025 BMW R1300GSA. You can sure tell that the styling was designed by a German and not an Italian. Very functional, but with a look that only its mother could love. What a tank! : https://www.motorcycle.com/bikes/new-mod...t-look-44604418

Check out the color combinations of the "Style GS Trophy" near the bottom of the article's page. "Racing Blue metallic" and "Red Racing Stripes". Racing colors - perfect for a 600-pound (before factory, dealer-installed and owner accessories are added) "off-road" vehicle.

I love this comment below the article text:

"The single ugliest motorcycle that BMW has ever made.

The R1200 ST can now sleep at night. ;-)

593 pounds offroad? Pulease.

MO gets extra points for commenting on the 'ready for Starbucks' engineering drawing."

It's always fun to hear BMW guys gripe about how ugly the new models are.

A real "Mad Max" motorcycle. Calling Mel Gibson...!

My R1200ST - blue/black still had the best lights, two dipped and two full headlights, same output as my old Jaguar XJ6/XJ40 with their 4 light set-up - twin dipped and twin full headlight units.
I never got to see the negative viewpoints anyway from the riders seat and the built is safety when one bulb failed was another bonus.
Lane splitting when I was commuting at night or daytime with the ST was the safest and I felt the most visible I would guess from the many drivers moving to the edge of their lanes.
The DRL on the 1200RS we got in uk (blue white - correct version!) probably a good second, certainly seems to visibly splt traffic in daylight, slow moving queues, which we do get a few with Devon being a holiday destination..

Surprised there was room for the 4 bulbs plus a parking bulb

No - just two dual filament bulbs that were both in use, either two dipped or two full beam, plus that fidly parking light.
I did 'upgrade' to blue white lights (tricked purchase?) but once the parking and one headlight failed I reverted to the bmw originals that were on the bike for over 15 years

Holy shit is right.

Somehow that tank puts me in mind of the K100 series... A new flying brick for the new millenium?
