Thanks Roger, now decided not to go for the GSA, its tad tall for me, I have found a standard GS it suits me a little better.

The GSA is a big booger but the GS has same engine but less clutter and shorter springs. Just get a Givi AF-330 screen to solve the wind noise & turbulence.

Absolutely not matey. Yes it lacks the sheer power of the starship enterprise but handling is easier, dare I say it more comfortable, it's a hoot in bags off mode. I can stay with any of the guys I ride with easier than on the FJR. Servicing is easier. Well if you can call phoning Paul for just a different bike easier I always have a cheesy grin when I ride it. I will struggle at next bike change time to find anything to change to. I have had a go on Yamahas latest Tracer and found it really small. Mind you a lot of bikes would with me on them I seriously doubt you'll regret the change Phil. Just make sure your bank balance can stand the farkle virus that comes with them!

F.A.R.K.L.E. -- Fancy Accessory Really Krap Likely Expensive.

F.A.R.K.L.E. -- Fancy Accessory Really Krap Likely Expensive. Clearly a philosophy that has trickled down from their car division. And yet you would think that they would concentrate on the essential stuff like indicators; they never seem to work on beemers, or Audis for that matter. Well I've never seen one where they work.
