Lol, at least you were able to have your camera. They told me to take it off before the ride :/ Great video 😊

Some places do that. Others do but don’t care :)

I did the Level 1 course on the GS1300 and can thoroughly recommend it. BTW, that bike has a quick shifter so you have to be sure to activate the clutch before touching the gear shift. That way the bike knows you are doing a manual shift and you won't have all that clunk and lurching when changing. It also has linked brakes, so you can just use the front brake only most of the time, even off-road.

@@ExeterCenturion Yes and far more than I was expecting. We also had time to spare so did few things from level 2.

@DanTube2010 ah, good to know that they push if you do okay!

Great video. I really must try one next year. From my experience on RTs I would suggest that the bike really wasn’t at its best at those speeds. When it is you’d be illegal though😊. Just ask yourself why they didn’t go round the grassy course we did with the others…. I’m thinking it’s about just how big it goes pear shaped when there’s a bit of misjudgment…. I would like to try. If only to eat my own words😊

I rode the Ducati Desert X on the grass last year. First ride of the weekend and utterly stuffed it on a slow turn on the grass :)

About time we saw you on a "proper" BMW! The pistons go side to side, NOT up n down on a 'real' BM 😛👍

Naaaah, it was light compared to the Africa Twin!

I might get chased with Pitchforks but still not a fan of GS's, they still sound like tractors to me The ABS Light was flashing because you was in Enduro Pro mode so it turns off ABS What Day did you do the test ride, I see you bumped in to a looney KTM rider seemed to be loads of them on the trial :( causing havoc

Yeah, I’ve only been riding a couple of years and with MH issues I can do without passes like that 😀

That stall felt alot worse than it looked! 😂Impressive machines but excess power and weight isn't needed tbh
