There is the spirit, but the execution is different. Now it's more high tech, which some purists might not like.

No, it’s just marketing hype. My R1250GSA feels brand new and does everything I need. So why the extra cash for marginal gains?

It all depends on your riding style. If you're hardcore off roader, the R1300GSA's improvements might be worth it. If you are mostly using the bike on the road stick with the 1250.

The R1300GSA is a clear step up in technology, but is it "worth it" depends on your budget and how much you care about having the newest and shiniest stuff.

I rode both back to back and the difference is subtle honestly. This little bit of extra processing power won’t make you a better developer unless you’re pushing the limits of what your unit can do.

They've ruined it. Now the R1300GSA looks like a street bike too much. It lost its rugged, go anywhere appeal.

It's a natural evolution. It is more aerodynamic, more functional, and that is what adventure riding is all about.

I'm on the fence. I’ve come around to it but I do miss some of the classic GS styling cues.

The new look is fantastic. It’s unmistakably a GS, but brought into the 2020s.

The redesign has gone too far. That unique GS character is lost, something which it had in spades and separated it from other adventure bikes.

Change is good! The new design no longer looks like a 'tractor' as some used to call the older models, but is more purposeful.
The FZ-10’s reliability compared to the Euro competitors BMW S1000R and Aprilia Tuono?

The FZ-10 is way more reliable than no contest. Pure Japanese engineering. Mine is at 50,000 miles and not a single issue with it besides regular maintenance.

They're all pretty close these days, I'd say. BMW and Aprilia have really closed the gap in terms of reliability. The real difference is that the Yamaha is usually cheaper to service.

The Tuono is worth the extra headache, but man, the FZ 10 is probably more reliable. It’s something special that V4 engine.

The bike and the dealer support are not just mere words. But there’s way more Yamaha dealers around and if something does go wrong it makes a big difference.
