Bones
Your Humble Scribe
There's information up on www.bmwmotorcycles.com about the new GS. The site has been crashing as I've tried to watch video and clink links, so it appears there is a lot of interest.
All kinds of technology with the much anticipated "combined air and liquid cooling" looking like the biggest change.
And to my eyes, it's also a big improvement in overall design...still unmistakably a GS but it looks like an integrated whole rather than something slapped together by a committee.
Bet they sell all they can make.
EDIT: Can't find a price...anybody know?
EDIT 2: Apparently BMW hasn't released pricing, however the UK appears to be gettomg a TE model (for Touring Edition) which will have a bunch of standard kit for touring. Whether that's coming across the pond I do not know.
