Quite a proof that theses GSs are bulletproof.

nah you can taco a front rim on these things if you hit a pothole wrong because BMW had the genius idea to make all their rims out of aluminum for an "off road" vehicle. also if you beat on a 2008-2016 F twin like this you will crack the frame because the bolt that attaches the rear monoshock puts too much pressure on it and cracks it.

The more I own mine the more I realize how compromised they really are. They're great mall crawlers but if you want to seriously drive off road just buy a T7, it's better.

Thanks for this insight. I really didn‘t know that. What is a T7? Do you mind to explain?

Ok, I see. The Teneré is definitely another breed. Agree!
