What is the difference between the 650 and the 1200 gearbox on the GS'es ?  I have a 650, and about 2 weeks ago I had the privilege to ride a 1200 for 2 days. 

The 650 gears are quite (hard ?) ..... when you change gears, you really feel it. But on the 1200 it is a soft gear change.

What is it that makes the difference ?

...... from a Noob still learning about bikes.
