I was actually looking for an accessory mount bar like the GS1200 has (which is used to hold up some windshields).

Fail. Its obviously way too small for most farkle'ized bikes - especially the new crop of BMW "Motorcycle Users" (i.e. those twidgets that manage to get through their 3/36 warranty and never make it to the first 6K service)... {Shakes head, ashamed at what his beloved brand has become}...

Saw this on adv when the guy was making it. Definitely looks like shit.

The GS has an OEM bar like the GSA, it doesn't hold up the windshield. You have to buy it extra. It's quite nice. I love mine.

I want to be able to do this




It looks like it puts the GPS is a very visible position, as well as a cellphone and a radar detector.

You know, you'd have to have a GS for "yours" to look like that.

If you can get me a GS built in the last 30 years that still runs for near the same price I paid for my well accessorized KLR, then yes I would have a GS. Being that I am currently slightly poor, I will stick with wanting a small metal tube above my dashboard to bolt things to.

GS360 or GS450?

You "adventure riders" want an adventure?

Remove the iPad, GPS, heated grips, in-motion satellite, microwave, espresso machine & automatic tampon changer; grab an old, well worn trail map and ride until you get lost.
