2010 BMW GS1200 Merged Threadfest

2010 GS1250 Wish list.

Wet clutch, Lower gear ratio. Fix everything that is covering the gas tank. I'd like to be able to sit more forward. It would make off road riding easier.

this is a great bike. But it can be improved.

Increase the plain-jane GS fuel capacity to 6 (or 6.2) gal.

Either a wet clutch like Hair says or a ceramic one that isn't going to blow. I am good with clutches and don't burn them up, but a good clutch is a good clutch. Lower first gear, just a smidge. I am ok with the rest of them (there are three total, right?)

Electric cruise is nice but pah on the price. Just make a mechanical one (they are $100 and don't break).

Independent turney-offable ABS would be nice; that way, unlike the present linked braking system, you might have a better chance on ice or pavement sand.

I have had linked brakes on a Honda CBR1000F and also rode a linked Guzzi for a little bit, but opted not to have same on my present stripped version GS. It's nice to finger brake the front going into corners but hey, I really don' miss them.

The windshield could be a little better in making an airstream envelope for yer knoggin.

Oh--Oh yeah, it needs a mini expresso machine that you can clamp to the exhaust system for a heat source... and a nice gel and leather seatpad, and gel handgrips, and..... a DVD player and iPod rack! A color printer shelf! oh, yeah, pink, purple, or black fuzzy fur for the handlebars! And a spot for the dashboard statue of your favorite Jesus/saint!

Why not enjoy what you have, I think its a great bike. Not perfect, but I think it just adds to the character.

After $850 and change, I would like to see a higher air intake.

Give me an Ohlins upgrade option just like the R1200S.

Set of extra wheels at time of purchase at a "reasonable" cost. BMW did it for the HP2 supermoto, no reason they can't put a package together for the regular GS.

A few more ponies wouldn't hurt either.

Oops, forgot to mention. Put water cooling on it and I'm out. No thanks.

ESA would be nice. Cruise control. Yes a K1200GS Adventure.

Cup holder?

Well...

1- Cruise Control,
2- Bigger Standard Tank, (much bigger than 19 liters)
3- Better windshield,
4- Wet Clutch,
5- Ohlins option
6- 18" rear wheel, 21" Front, at least as an available option ... Otherwise stop pretenting being a dual sport ...
7- No more Telelever and no more paralever. Good for paved road, but an handicap for gravel.

That's it ...

R1200GSA oO

You guys crack me up - folks scream - get rid of the hi-tech stuff but give us a flat panel display GPS and cruise control ???


PS. The 07's ABS can be switched on the fly without the key drill.

Really I love this bike!
BUT
I'm ditching the seat
and I wish I could toggle through the trip meters with the info button

I'd say these are both very minor gripes and one is fixable with $$$

So I'm happy
Here's to BMW and a pretty well sorted out bike

Sanders

ESA and electronic cruise would be first on my list. I think its just about perfect in every other respect.

I wish the GSA came with.<o></o>
<o> </o>
Inverted forks<o></o>
Steering Stab<o></o>
21” Front Wheel<o></o>
18” Rear Wheel<o></o>
Piggy Back Shock<o></o>
Cruise Control<o></o>
Heated Seat<o></o>
More Power<o></o>
<o> </o>
I’ll still buy one but this is just a wish list of things that were not listed above.<o></o>

Just give me a bigger battery and a up high air intake..I'll be happy with how she sits...maybe the higher HP of the S motor

I think i found it ...

So you don't even need to worry about riding anymore and much less about saddlebags, sleeping tent or "Company"



I'm sorry if it does not have than Many "Farckes" Or whatever you spell that Harley word

Ricardo, Are those seats heated?​

One of them is..mmmmm

I'm not sure about Heated, on the other hand I'm sure the empty seats will be "WeT" with such company..
