kmac Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 They had them on the showroom floor at BMW San Diego last week. I got to sit on it,,,nice feeling bike. It actually seemed lower than the air/oil cooled model to me. Link to comment
Roadwolf Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Say what? You mean the new R1200GSA water cooled? I think you may be confusing this with the F800GSA... If not, then that dealer scored the advance sneak peek of the century! Link to comment
FlyingFinn Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 When the real new GSA is actually revealed, I'll be very curious to see where and much of extra gas tank capacity they were able to implement. The radiators are now smack where the GSA used to carry the extra fuel. Mikko Link to comment
Roadwolf Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 You know, I think I have that figured out based on a closer examination under the seat... looks like they are following what they designed for the F800GSA... looks to be an extra holding tank for extra fuel. Don't see that on the current GSA. Link to comment
TEWKS Posted July 10, 2013 Author Share Posted July 10, 2013 If you look at the small pics here in this link, the one on the right shows a pretty wide fuel tank. https://producer.googleusercontent.com/producer/attachment/CAAqBwgKMJXL-gYw_9U3-1news.jpg?fife Pat Link to comment
Marty Hill Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Sure looks like a GSA to me. Link to comment
kmac Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Say what? You mean the new R1200GSA water cooled? I think you may be confusing this with the F800GSA... If not, then that dealer scored the advance sneak peek of the century! Nope, It was the new W/C R1200GS....Not the GSA. Link to comment
Roadwolf Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Oh, understand now... it just threw me for a loop because we are talking new WC GSA and you said you saw them on the floor already at a dealer... gotcha! Link to comment
kmac Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I could not see in the add that it was a GSA. Sorry, my bad. The picture is cut in half on my computer and all I see is the "200 GS leaked" lol The WC is a cool looking bike. Link to comment
Sailorlite Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 The new Adventure model might be the ideal touring bike, particularly for long-legged riders. It seems there would be plenty of "sport" for the sporttouring riders as well as touring features such as cruise control and weather protection from the adjustable windshield, the wide tank and even the handguards. Also, some of the potential new model bugs will have been corrected thanks to BMW's LC GS experience. I haven't paid much recent attention to the GS line, but the upcoming GSA appears to be a strong competitor, as a tourer, to the upcoming RT. Link to comment

Huzband Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 I know. Unfortunately we're looking down the barrel of a new a/c unit for the homestead. And this after having both bathrooms redone in the last five weeks. And a grand deductible on The Wifes rear-ended Mini. And my threeish grand finger repair job. It's okay. As long as I don't ride one, I'll survive. Feel sorry for me yet? Yeah, neither do I. Link to comment
