As we get older, the wiser we get, my friend. If you're happy, that is all that matters. I'm like you on the windscreen buddy. I can't ride with the wind in my face for any length of time. At least, the stock windscreen will protect your Belt Buckle in the rain.😅 May you have all green lights and free of mishaps on you new steed.

I’ve definitely gotten wiser as I’ve gotten older but still a work in progress. I like the lighter weight of this new BMW - just taking me some time to figure out all the high tech gizmos on this thing. But the safety features are great. The windscreen will be history very soon. I was tired yesterday after riding all day from all the wind on my body and around my head. Too old for that! Thanks as always for watching and I’m still recovering from being a furniture mover this past weekend in Nashville. I told my son he’s on his own from here on out. Ha !

I'm like you, I'll turn 74 next month and love riding every day I can. Down here in south Alabama you can pretty much ride all year long. I had a series of heavy cruisers until one day I realized that I prefer the upright riding position of naked/roadster/adventure bikes. I now have a '23 BMW F900R and I love it. My favorite bike thus far. Stay safe.

I have a 2021 F750GS and added the Madstad 18" windshield. It makes a HUGE difference! I am in pretty much a bubble of calm air now! Also added a Sargent seat which was nice but I've since switched back to the original seat. ps - Also added Barkbuster hand guards, helps to keep the wind off your hands. (I ride in Michigan in the Spring - Fall and the windshield and hand guards make a big difference in keeping you warm - plus the heated grips of course)! (I also have a 2014 Harley Fatboy Lo, nice having the two totally different bikes).

I just installed the 18-in Madstad windshield this weekend and took a ride out on the highway and county roads. Huge improvement as you say. Air was deflected completely over my helmet. I could open my visor and had no wind blast to my face at all. Well worth the cost and easy to install. Looks like good quality too. Thanks for watching!

I’m thinking adding the hand guards too for the exact reasons you mentioned. I’m going to give the stock seat a longer test before I change that. I’ve heard the Sargent seats are good but firm. I’ll probably go with BMW comfort seat, but that’s down the road. If I decide to go on a long trip this summer I might get it.

Yes the Sargent seat is firm but a bit wider in the seat so might work better for you or not. Also I'm 69 which is one of the reasons I went with the F750GS (lighter weight, plus it has all the goodies my Harley doesn't! Cruise control, heated grips, runs on regular gas and gets around 60mpg, and it's pretty quick and agile compared to the Harley).

My wife got into riding recently and we bought a 99 BMW F650 with 88k miles for her to learn. She loved that bike but quickly realized she has had too many knee surgeries to risk 2 wheels. We went to the 3 wheel can am class to see if she might like riding one of those. We were both amazed at how fun they are. She now has a full touring version the rt limited.

@@GARamblinMan Hey man sure thing! It's actually a Sargent seat. It was on another Gs750 at the BMW lot and I swapped it out for the original seat. Of course they charged me 300 bucks for the trade but I was told it was an 800 seat. Guess I should have done my research first. They did let me test it out for about an hour before I bought it and I will say I was satisfied. The one thing I didn't like about the Sargent seat is that it's a tad bit slippery, but the comfort it provided me was an easy trade off. Also the Sargent sits a tad bit higher than the factory so keep that in mind also.

I just put some Michelin Anakee Adventures on it and it handled the dirt, gravel, and rocks beautifully. I even had it in sand as my bike does not have traction control and the ABS can be turned off. Dropped it twice, but even the larger ones drop in sand :) You have a great bike there. Enjoy!

I will be turning 69 in March and have also done the same. I've been riding a Victory Vision Tour for the past 4 years and it has been a great motorcycle, but I have found myself having to go more off pavement to get to friend's farms and homes up here in South Dakota. The Victory is about 900lbs wet and while I have never dropped it off tarmac, it was a handful. I just purchased an R1200GSA, a late 17 with really low mileage already set up for me ergonomically. The center of gravity is nice and low like the Vic, but shedding almost 400lbs felt like moving over to a scooter. Since I am pretty tall at 6'4"+ and weigh around 270lbs, I can flat foot both feet at a stop no problem. I wish I had considered this 4 years ago, but better late than never.

I’ll make a video soon about why I chose the BMW F750 GS over some of the other models I tested like the Kawasaki Versys 650 and Triumph Tiger 660. I thought the Tiger 660 and Kawasaki Versys 650 were just a bit too small for me and neither had cruise control, which I wanted. I also detected a bit of vibration in the handlebars on the Tiger 660 at highway speeds I did not like. I thought the seats on those two smaller bikes were not as comfortable as the BMW. Bottom line is that the BMW offered more options and better technology for only a slightly higher price. These adventure style bikes are a great option for an older rider to downsize to. Thanks for watching and your questions and I will be saying more about this topic on some future videos. Stay tuned!
