i ran into a local Iron Butt buddy of mine who has been doing all his hypermileage on an LT, he told me he just scored a new GSA and is converting one of the saddle bags to an aux fuel tank. he was telling me how much pull the twin has, I said "i know"

i sat on a GSA at the dealer and it was just so fricking big, and I am 6' i just couldn't see myself getting too excited about it, but perhaps I can ride my friends and see what all the fuss is about. of course if i ever got one, I would leave it totally stock

Shreddr, A GS is the bike for you. They are like a freaking Christmas Tree, the more crap you hang on em, the cooler they are.

Here is our suave and debonair hero, practicing "dry" on his new seat.... before he had a bike for it, mind you:

What's that chair on the left. Looks like a bench seat out of an Impala or Corvair...
(Is that next on the list...)

Argh Roger! Ralf, Craig, Bill, Rob... the lott of them... bad influences as is... you need not list to them! Look at what it's done to me so far. I now have an R1200GS and the ink wasnt even dry on the paperwork and Ralf was/is temping me with riding to Patagonia. It would be both career suicide (to leave my clients for such a long time) and relationship suicide (not sure if my fiancee would still be 'my fiancee' when all was said and done). But now you've gone an stickied this... the tragedy! Be kind to the other, more thoughtful members of the board who have yet to click the link... let this thread die! Plus, it's soooo OT it belongs ... well... not at the top!

If you can survive a trip to Ralf's apartment, you can survive Patagonia.
