It makes them feel important, to have the illusion that they figured something out that eludes lesser mortals . But they really aren't, and they really haven't.
let it brush over you like your wiping your arse with it and then flush it away.
1250 it is !

If Ben Purvis on Bennetts is right we get the same GS with styling tweaks and a little more hp + 10 and KTM 1301 TORQUE + 15 which is good.
A quieter and heavier exhaust due to the assholes in Brussels with their ridiculous EU-5 regs is not good but will be rectified by the aftermarket with a lighter and louder system...
So far so good of course 145-150 or even 160 hp would be better and more exiting but 15 Nm more TORQUE are very welcome...
As for excitement let's see if the 17 inch GS-RR version and R 1250 S rumors prove to be true...
As also the S1000RR will be all new for next season which is very exiting !
An all new GS with less weight we probably see in another 4 years...but unfortunately then even quieter with hybrid crap if the f@cking EU survives...
The best days are here or over soon when we can enjoy to burn gas and have fun...enjoy while it lasts before the EU-fakkers put us all in electric wheel chairs saving C02 while they destroy the rainforests and pollute the world with toxic batteries made in china getting all that clean energy from dirty coal and dangerous nuclear powerplants...

Pour me a cheeky G&T and let’s watch the evening fun and frolics
Like a stuck fucking record !
Complete with 17" wheels?
You’re completely missing the point. I’ve had zero issues with my KTM, as have most others, so I’m more than happy to buy another one.
The current GS with all the issues is embarrassing, so it makes me laugh that people would rush to buy another first year bike when the current model still has a lot of issues.
My local wasn't amused when I told a prospective customer not to bother with the first 2 years of production

Until you have sold your bike obviously...........
How many GS bikes did you own and what went wrong with your last one ?
BTW, no issues with my 2013 TE in 25000 miles (engine a bit rattly but aren't they all).

Smashed mine on a fooking pot hole
Tis why I am keeping the 19 inch to hopefully glide over the holes, hopefully
21" even better ..The AT glides over them
5 LC’s. The first one had bent forks, the second GSA had the paint rub off the frame, tank & swing arm within the first week of ownership. It seems that the current GS bikes are similar to a game of Russian roulette, and it surprises me that some people are happy to buy the next model when the current one still has so many issues.
