  • Here I am taking my 2012 BMW F800GS Trophy Edition up to Atlantic Motoplex in Dieppe, New Brunswick to trade her in on a new 2016 R1200GS Adventure. I loved my 800 but upgraded to a more comfortable R1200GS for me and my beautiful girlfriend to explore this wonderful country we live in. If you are in the market for a good motorcycle, I suggest you talk to salesman Troy LeBlanc at Atlantic Motoplex in Dieppe, New Brunswick, CA. Tell him Howie sent you and stay tuned for more GS adventures as Kelly and I explore the Maritime Provinces and some day the rest of Canada. Thanks for watching!

    so happy for this dude , the moment you get on and you know anything else will feel just that little bit smaller and less powerful than the goliath R1200 GSA

    Two patient (NOT !!) years left for my retirement and my present from me to me when I shall experience the glee you evidently felt while picking up the best motorcycle in the world. May in come soon for me.

    It was equiped with those tyres from factory or it was your option? Becouse I have Michelin Anakee 2 from factory.

    • @MaritimeBiker
      @MaritimeBiker  Před 7 lety +1

      I had the Hiedenau K60 Scouts installed when I bought the bike. I had great luck with them on my F800GS, but find the front tire awful noisy around 80-100 km/h. (50-60mph)

    • @daneluta
      @daneluta Před 7 lety

      Fine! Will be next.

    What tires are you running?

    • @donaldmoe3286
      @donaldmoe3286 Před 7 lety +2

      Those look like Heidenau K60 Scouts. They're good 50/50 bias-ply tires. I had a set on my GSA for a trip from Washington to Alaska in 2015 and got pretty good wear from them. Just be careful on wet pavement since the rear tire can hydroplane at over ~60mph/100kmh.

    • @MaritimeBiker
      @MaritimeBiker  Před 7 lety

      Yes Donald Moe is correct. They are the Heidenau K60 Scouts. I ran them on my F800GS with great results.

    • @MaritimeBiker
      @MaritimeBiker  Před 7 lety

      Hi Donald. Did you find the Hiedenau front tire noisy on your GSA? I had mine put on when I bought the bike, but the front tire makes a awful howl at between 80 and 100km/h.(50-60mph) It's so noisy that I would not put another one on my R1200GS. Thanks for watching!
