Hi guys,

Being a bit budget constrained, I've recently had to cut back my dreams of owning a 1200GSA in the near future.

However, I then started looking for the 1150GSA (scarce as hen's teeth I might add!), just on the impression that it isn't a bad bike, just slightly older.

So, my questions to the experienced crew here:
* Pros & cons of the 1200GSA
* Pros & cons of the 1150GSA
* Why would you prefer one over the other?

Just trying to establish if I should save for a while longer, or try finding that elusive low-mileage, well looked after, garage-ridden, show-off 1150GSA that never left the city streets in 5 years (or even a well looked after machine that has seen more of SA than my Funduro).

Thanks.
