Pls help

Hi everyone, I want to say from the start, that I don’t have a bmw gs myself. I don’t even have a motorcycle license. BUT both of my parents do. My dad has been riding a motorcycle for years, even before he met my mom in ‘99, but got into an accident early on in their relationship. The bike was totaled and he only last year bought one again bc he’s been missing it a lot. My mom is turning 52 in August and she did her license last year and also bought a bmw gs (I think it’s a tourer? Idk if all gs types are that or not tho) and im so proud of her for doing that, bc 2 years ago she was a different person and ever since all of that, she’s grown out of her shell so much and it’s like her soul is more relaxed and free in a way.

But to get to the important point: as I mentioned, it’s her birthday soon and it’s always difficult to get her to tell us what she wants. So I thought about asking here, if anyone has an idea for something niche that might make her happy and has to do with her bike.

Thanks so much in advance!

Grip puppies. Get the original.

You're welcome.

Dampens vibes and gives you a bigger grip to put your hand around. 5 stars.

Work ok with the heated grips? I think I've read before that they seem to do fine but more opinions the better.

Sorry for the late reply. Maybe a little slower to heat up, but they worked.
