Compare the 2020 BMW R1250RT with my BMW R1250GS Adventure (Ride and Review)

Good evening

It's a scandal!!! I hoped to bring you a review and comparison of my GS Adventure with an RT I borrowed while mine was looked at for connectivity issues. I rode it, reviewed it and on the day I edited it (a week or so after), BMW brought out a new RT!!!

Much of what I waffled about still holds though and I added a first look at the new on for a minute or so at the end.

Hope you enjoy it

Ride safe
Nick

I'd be really grateful if you are buying any of these if you used the links and help support the channel.
