Not yet , only kidding , but the BM is a great looking bike , it always has someone saying , butt ugly but most of the time people appreciate the engineering and design and admire the concept.
The GS is ugly.
I didn't buy mine for the looks.
Even the v-strom is a better looking bike.

Are you pissed , the Suzuki Jelly mould is fookin awful man...slap yourself with a fish, and hid in a corner due to your silliness...…….
Most of my mates say that , but they ride KTM , Yamaha Ducatti and Honda , but I just smile and sigh at them , simpletons .
To add I was waiting at a level crossing towards wales when a nice chap in his convertible Aston commented how beautiful my bike looked and how it was such a handsome chap was riding ……...

Pissed ? possibly.
Blind ? No.
The GS looks like somebody set fire to it and put it out with a cricket bat.
It's a bit like the missus, great personality..................

Why all the talk about the beauty or lack of it? Go start another thread for that this one is about riding the bike.
Its a forum , tangents happen lol
I like my 1250 Rallye including the gold wheels.
I came from an XR which is a great bike but I wanted a GS now. I am very happy with the GS in all departments. Ok it may not be as fast as the XR but it is comfortable, quick enough, handles well and the TFT screen is fantastic. No buzzing in mirrors like the XR.
Been riding 40 years and nearing retirement the GS is the one to have. Its my choice and my money.

Quite right
If we all liked the same thing we would only ever need one model and style of bike. No personalisation, no variation in colour, etc etc.
You like your bike, and you’re happy. Job done

If Victorinox made a bike it would be the GS or GSA-LC.

Interesting when your army is most famous for a pen knife.
I was looking at some unregistered 1200’s at Allan Jeffries this afternoon and they still had Sachs rear ESA shock absorbers, whereas the 1250’s had ZF ones.
I knew ZF made gearboxes (like the automatic box in my 320d), but didn’t realise they made shock absorbers too.
