great trip and great report!

I'm also a Spaniard and I really enjoyed your report. I like people enjoying the lands that I know and love.

Ok, even considering the tougher subchassis and the grab rail it doesn't add up to 30 kg or so of difference. 190 vs 225 kg if I recall correctly.

what about weight difference?

Weight difference between the S and the GS is what surprises me the most.

Where does it come from? Could I save some weight from the GS and keep the practicality and looks?

I guess the engine...

I'm impressed.
For me this is much a better reason to buy a bike than top speed or acceleration.
It looks as if the BMW's ABS reacts much faster than the other two.
That's 20m shorter than the...

BMW design should fire some of their current designers and hire Hugo and Johny.
This time I like better Johny's designs, any of the two, but I think Hugo's is more likely.

That comes closer to what I want. The figures are right for me.

Why carburators?
Why the old paralever?
Why a traditional fork?
Nice weight and power, though. It makes me wonder what BMW could accomplish with a new r1200s.

It must be some other Luis. I have a CBR, not a VFR.
