    Stripped a T40 Bolt on my GSA - how screwed am I?

    I need to take a number of parts off of my 2023 R1250 GSA in order to install the Denali equipment I've purchased. I began taking the rear seat base off as well as the pannier rails. Inadvertently, on one of the bolts I inserted a T30 bit instead of a T40 bit. I had already loosened the other...

    2018 GSA, Good buy?

    Hey guys and gals, I already have a 2016 K1600GTL and I love it. But, I am thinking about getting dirty. I am looking at a 2018.5 R1200 GSA, it has all 3 BMW hard aluminum bags, Clearwater lights, digital dash, premium, and Nav VI. The dealer is asking $16,999 out the door. It has 19,600 miles...

    2016 R1200GSA Windshield

    Looking for suggestions to replace my OEM touring shield; it's awful at any height adjustment! The head buffeting is unbearable. I ride about 30% highway to get to the 'twisties' of North GA, NC, TN and SC where I spend the other 70%. I'm 6'0", 195lbs.

    Hey guys, as the title says, rear shock on my gsa just started leaking, as it sits hibernating in my unheated garage. I was going to have it taken in to my local dealer/mechanic for the front end recall, but perhaps it’s time for a new suspension? I’m considering touratechs’ esa front and rear...

    Northern Virginia Area GSA Riders

    Anyone in the NOVA area know of any GSA meeting points or upcoming rides for 2015? I just picked up my first 2015 BMW R 1200 GSA and looking to meet with kindred spirits.

    Whether or not battery tenders are really necessary

    Hi, I've ridden lots of different motorcycles over the last 40 years and other than a 1991 Suzuki GSX1100F that really did need to be hooked to battery life-support every minute that I was not riding it, all my BMWs have done very well without tenders at all. Granted, I live in northern...

    Motorcycle Insurance

    Hey all, I'd like to get your thoughts on my insurance dilemma: 3 years ago I bought a motorcycle after not owning one for 16 years.. A 1983 Honda VF1100C. (V65 Magna). I got insured by Progressive, as my auto insurance company (Wawanesa Mutual) doesn't do motorcycles. No biggie. It was...
