We have a customer, so this story is a sample of one, who currently owns 99 bikes....
He bought the 2014 LC, sold it and bought 2015 LC, sold that and bought the 2016 LC, sold t hat and scoured the country for a couple of months until he found a sub 15k km AC 1200 GSA...
He is in his mid-60,s, and reckons he will keep this till the end, whilst he sells down his collection.
Reckons it’s the better bike, but sample of one!
————————————————————————
On the LC, the clutch is very easily accessible, whereas AC the bike needed to be ‘split in half’, so from a clutch replacement perspective (seldom/rare), the LC is a quicker repair.
