i m not a fan of the new touratech boxes..seem to me like a "designer" box, it like carrying a LV bag for jungle trekking.

 

I prefer the original alu boxes, looks more rugged

Just for discussion ... :cool:

Face the reality, how many SG BMW GS riders go off roads ?

Maybe not even 1% of the whole GS community.

I think is better to do things to suits your personal application.

But I know half of them are posters because I own a GS.

Never tour or whatsoever and their usual excuse is no time to ride ... :p :p :p

Everytime I stir shiit and make people angry with me ... :lol:

Should be going for the GS. I think the GSA is kinda bulky.. and I am not very tall. 1.74m and I already gotta tip toe a bit when I tried the GS.

By the way, if I wanna fix boxes on the GS, is the rack universal? ie once I fix the racks for side boxes, I can fit bmw, touratech or H&B boxes? Or do I have to buy racks that are specific to each model of box?

 

I'm about your height.. No prob on the GSA.. Though i tip toe too.. Its looks and feel bulky.. But once on the move.. U will be amazed on how nimble the bike is but yet so big and heavy.

 

Yes, I can see you are a very happy man ever since you have it. :p

Bike is big, bulky because of attachments, nimble thanks to almost perfect German engineers and heavy only when you load up a lot stuff.

GS is very easy to handle. I just like you, I am in love. :p

seems like the guy who got a non stop erection while riding a beemer is not the only one..

:cheeky:

When you have walked my path of pain and suffering

you will understand my need for revenge and to inflict pain on those who have betrayed me

As a scorpion bides its time to strike so shall I wait for that moment to obtain my vengeance

And my mocking laughter shall be the last thing they hear. In The End, We Remember Not The Words Of Our Enemies, But The Silence Of Friendships

Anybody here have problem crossing the Causeway?

 

A few weeks back I went through the Causeway checkpoint, first time after almost 20 years, and I find that my bike with panniers can barely squeeze through the lanes on the Singapore side! All sweat and holding back a long queue of "cubs" behind me.

 

I usually go via the Second Link but as I was following my friend to Pasir Gudang track, it is nearer to go through Causeway. What a nightmare, and I can smell my clutch burning from those half-clutch maneuvers.

Which lanes..? The 2 conjoining ones before the booth..? Or at the booth...?
