Hi Everyone... Newbie GS rider hereI sold my BMW S1000 RR just over 2 years ago, ive given up on the sportsbike and realised i need something more comfortable, like admitting im getting older. I have just bought a 2023 BMW GS 1250 Adventure TE triple black with factory option 719 1 and 2. The bike has 1600 miles 1 owner, powder coated black bars and kitted with the DLR indicators and deneli lights and other tricks. I lost my no claims as I have not ridden for over 2 years so they stung me a little. Just bought new helmet jacket and gloves and sold my sportsbike clothing.
The bike is amazing though.
 
Welcome from Iowa, USA.

On the insurance bit been a few threads on that topic from UK and US members, seems wise to shop around as rates can vary widely. I hear you on the comfort/age thing, would love to have a sport bike but the more upright adventure/sport category is all my knees and wrists will allow.
