Should we be killing a fatted calf or something...? 
To what do we owe the honour?

I still stand by all my original review, BMW have addressed all of the bad bits I didn’t like.
(But without the silly childish seat option)

) I cannot remember what you said originally- but it was funny and mirrored my thoughts too
I think it was along the lines of the original LC having a shit clutch, shit gearbox and electronics designed by the same bloke that does the traction control for Fischer price toys

Glad they have improved it in the intervening 8 years
The new 1250 is a totally different bike to ride compared to those early WC’s
I hooked it up the Newtown to Crossgates road and apparently the ABS cut in several times (I was riding like a twat), although I never felt it once.
The suspension is on a different level.
The clutch is stil a bit shit, but not enough to put me off, but the gearbox and electronics on the new bike are far less intrusive.
It’ll take a while to gel with (whereas with the twin cam I felt an immediate connection) but I reckon with a set of bar risers it’ll be right.
maybe age gives different feelings evolution
I doubt it, shit is shit no matter how old, and the early water cooled bikes were shit.
I think the reality is, bmw read my criticisms and put their top men on to it to solve them, it took them 8 years, that’s how shite the early bikes were

The GS gearbox was always fine, just needed a modicum of intelligence to adapt

So you're still struggling with it then.
All dealers are nice and want to help until they have your money.
Some are better at helping after they have it.
