Since I've gotten my GSA1250, I've dropped it twice already while turning at <5km and a couple of near misses.

I'm 6,5ft and therefore it should not be a problem as I've never had the issue on my GS1200.......yes, it weigh's a lot less and not as top heavy as the GSA.

On arriving at our destination and just having a general discussion as well as comparing my scoot with other 1250's........when standing the bike upright, I cannot get it to balance/stay upright where the other okes GSA1250's can balanced quite easily with one finger (at this stage all panniers/top boxes was removed).

One of the points that came up and how true it is I do not know, but it was suggested that I must take it to BMW balance the bike? Could this be true?
