goat Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Guzzi stelvio at the mo, but putting up for sale soon. Picking up a 2011 gs next week funnily enough but that will just be temporary for a US trip 2up this summer and I'll sell it when we get back as too expensive to run long term living in London. I'm not indecisive or anything honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like it, well I love the engine, but good lady is not completely comfortable pillion and since we'll be doing a lot of mileage we need to be as comfortable as possible. We spent two days on a gs and loved it, both very comfortable. parts and support for the guzzi is few and far between which is a bit of a concern should we have an issue over there. I've also had a bit of a thing for BMW bikes since I was a kid. There are a few other reasons that all add up to it not being quite the right choice for us for that trip. Good bike though.

Good bike though.Sounds legit mate...I have been won over with the lc boxer and I have always had a soft spot for bmw.I'm to damn tall for most of the bikes but the Gsa fits me good.Ride safe ....

Gerontious Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 I've always wondered why owners of the GS series so often reverse its name... Making it almost Suzuki(ish). So R1200GS becomes Gs1200. Like there's a hint of embarrassment or even shame. I don't think there's any other bike, or make, where this happens with such frequency.

Must be easier to spell gs1200 than r1200gs I dunno Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
