    1200GS on N1 Western bypass

    Ok, will refrain from name calling, but to the person on the 1200GS who thought it was a great idea to pass a super bike in the Emergency Lane, you swerved and almost took me out while I was doing 120kph in the fast lane. Since you have no regard for other vehicles and specifically other...

    Another GS vs GSA...

    I got myself in a bit of trouble... went and tested the LC GS. Filled in some of those "no obligation" forms, and now they tell me its approved. So, what to choose? GS or GSA? More specifically what does the GSA have that the GS don't, and does the R20k make financial sense?
