Is the R1300GSA's new tech overkill for an adventure bike?
The BMW R1300GS Adventure has all the latest technology, including advanced rider aids, a sophisticated TFT display and connectivity. These additions are intended to further safety, comfort and convenience, but they have also provoked a debate among adventure riding purists. Others say that too much technology is at odds with the spirit of adventure motorcycling, which has traditionally been about simplicity and self reliance. These complex systems raise concerns about the reliability and repairability of these complex systems in remote areas, and the information overload while riding. However, advocates of the new tech say it makes the bicycle more versatile and available to a broader audience of riders. This question is part of a larger debate within the motorcycle community as to where technology fits in today’s bikes and if it makes for a better or worse ride.
Not at all! The bike is safer and more versatile because of the tech. It’s great for long distance adventure riding.
