Those indulgent Bavarian parents give more to their number one son.... new tech and new colours
If I was the RS I'd seek adoption by better parents

It may be the 40th anniversary of the GS but wasn't 2016 the 40th anniversary of the RS ? You might not have noticed but there was f**k all celebration then !!

I’m with you on that Andy.
In my world everyday is a celebration of the RS - just the best dressed boxer BMW have ever conceived.

It is still an ugly brute!

Just appreciate that all of those fools buying a GS for £20,000 or more are subsidising our vice.

I'm surprised all the R bikes did not get the heated seat option this year.
With the RT and GS having it you would think it easier for all the R bikes to have the connector and switch.

I'm not interested in the adaptive headlight. It looks complex and very expensive to replace.

I like the black and gold. My loaner this week was a 1250 gs in black and gold. Made me feel like a proper yinzer.

ON a side note, I enjoyed the opportunity to ride the new gs but I wasn't so enamored that I would ever consider trading in Roxy for it.

Is it just me or is there something unwholesome about a heated seat on a motorbike? Feels a bit too much like you've shit yourself.

From my perspective by the time it gets cold enough to merit use there will be salt on the road and my RS will at the back of the garage and F800GT by the garage door until the salt goes away!!
